Christmas themes too!
ScratchBack has announced it’s new marketplace blog directory.
This will aid both publishers showing the widget and advertisers. The marketplace should provide a single location and increase the usefulness of the ScratchBack widget.
If you are using the ScratchBack widget on your site or blog make sure you sign up on the marketplace!
This will help advertisers looking for a place to advertise find you. I think most of my Text Link Ads advertisers came from the TLA marketplace. I think eventually many advertisers will be using the ScratchBack directory to find blogs and sites to advertise on.
If you are an advertiser, this directory will provide a great place to find places to advertise you site or product.
Right now, the list is small. I think this is because not too many publishers know about the site. I think this will fill up quickly with some very good advertising options. Don’t forget, links are just $1.00 on this site.
For more information about the directory or to get your site listed, take a look at the post on the ScratchBack blog.
Visit the directory and make sure your site gets on it.
We’ve sorta quietly launched our new directory, or marketplace, the other day. Check it out at www.scratchback.com/directory.
Are you a ScratchBack widget user? Feel free to add your blog or website to the free directory. Adding your site or blog allows advertisers/tippers to easily find your blog based on categories, so they can tip you.

The directory is a bit rough yet.
It seem like they have taken some kind of directory script and adapted it. It was not obvious to me where the URL was for the sites. But, it is a great start. It would be nice to see a specific place for the cost of an ad as well as some kind of traffic ranking for sites. Right now, you would have to visit the site and check everything out yourself.
ScratchBack announces Christmas themes for the widget.
If you would like to add a little Holiday spirit to your ScratchBack widget they have a few Christmas themes now. I like them. My only complaint is that they are still to wide to go in the column I wish to place it in here. I have been told that thinner widgets are in the works – I wish these were available in a thin version.
You do not need to change the code on your blog or site.
Just go to the ScratchBack admin and select the widget manager link. You only need to go through the steps. Once you get to the point it gives you the code you are done. No need to copy the code to your blog.



I really wish they would go ahead and make thinner widgets. I want it displayed, but it looks horrible being as wide as it is.
There’s a similar widget available from http://www.BringaBuddy.net which has a width of 160px and fits in most sidebars.
Check it out…
Thanks Dave – It looks interesting. Right now, I can live with the widget a bit wide.
