Jim Kukral who is a web marketing strategist had launched a program named ScratchBack. 2 days ago, I found this on somewhere and I immediately signed up for this and “scratch” the widget and apply it on my blog because the widget look cool and unique, I grabbed it because I like the design.
Normally if we buy a text link on a people’s site, most probably we will get banned by Google for selling text link, but with ScratchBack, we’re safe to have link in others’ site. It’s a very simple program and we can done it in few minutes or even seconds. Other than this, Jim Kukral said that the purpose of using ScratchBack is not to make money online but it’s used to something like donation.
If you remember, wordpress has a plugin named “Buy Me A Cup Of Coffee” or “Buy Me A Beer” or something like that, the concept is similar with the wordpress plugin but it’s better than that. With the WordPress Plugin, your readers give you a donation without any return, with ScratchBack, your readers can give you a donation and also have their link in your blog, it’s their reward and return. With an example, someone buy you a free coffee and you have say “thank you” and buy him a free chocolate milk as return, it’s the same concept.
How Does ScratchBack Work?
It’s very simple and easy to get it started on your blog. By following the sketch, definitely you can understand it and done it in seconds. Simply sign up in ScratchBack.
Will I Get Banned By Google For Buying And Selling Text Link?
Definitely not! Jim Kukral write the code in Javascript, Google search engine spiders can’t read it and can’t detect it, it’s definitely to use it, no one will lose the pagerank and no one will also get banned by Google. Again, I have to say that the purpose of Jim creating this program are not used to make money online, it’s used to give the author of the blog a donation for their hard works. Of course, readers can get a link in return.
Jim Kukral created ScratchBack, an alternative towards selling text links ads that doesn’t get you banned in Google and a solution that allows for people to donate to blog authors and get something in return.
Are You In My Top Spot?
Jim Kukral had stated that the rate for the donations in $5 is ideally, I’m not going to follow him and I would like to put the rate in $3 only! The widget is displayed on the top of the sidebar. It’s how it looks like.
If you would like to give my blog a donation with a little of $3, simply click on the “Get In My Top Spot” and place your order. You just have to simply fill in your blog info, make your payment and your link will be up immediately!
About Lee Ka Hoong
I want, but very exsipensive
Mike : Hi Mike! Erm, expensive? It’s only $3 for listing your site there. I I forgot to state about the duration of your link will be displayed, there is no time frame to have your link there until there is more than 10 links there, then the oldest link will be disappeared. So if not more than 10 links there, your link will be there forever. :)
The design really good but i not really like the concept where link will be gone if more than 10 people donate
dev : Yea, the link will be gone if more than 10 people donate. It looks unique, it’s something like gamble, you don’t when will you win or lose. It’s similar case here, you donate and get the link, but you don’t know how long your link will be there. So, you pray that there is not more than 10 people donate. So, do you interest to donate and get your link there as well? It’s just a little amount at only $3. :)
Here’s a question for your readers.
Is the information you put out on this blog worth a $3 tip every year? Most would have to say yes. Why not tip someone who gives you good info, or entertains you?
Thanks for testing our widget out!
Jim Kukral : Hi Jim, great to see you here! Yea that’s the question I would like to ask my readers. Donate $3 a year in not complicated right? I might come up more interesting article and help up my readers! This is the energy booster!
C’mon, donate $3 and get a link here. hehe! Anyway, Jim thank you for buying the first link! Hope to see you again here! :)
hoho. i already try this before. But i’m not interested after that..
titan : Oh.. I just would like to put as a donation and as a return for those who donate for my hard work. I don’t mind whether there is anyone donate or not. :)
