Amadeus is a new Widget Ready WordPress Theme which has just been released by headsetoptions.org. It is a 2 Column theme with an eye-pleasing green and white color scheme.

An added bonus with this theme is the fact that it is Adsense ready and it has a very professional look and feel about it. The theme is a fixed width one which can be good thing when it comes to heavily configuring your blog later.

Amadeus also has a very Web 2.0 professional look to it with the cool looking RSS and Technorati icons and crisp text fonts.

Installation Info

On the whole, Amadeus is a clean, professional theme which is Google Adsense ready and well worth considering for your blog. Hmmm, come to think of it, I’m kinda tempted to change mine to this one as well.

AuctionAds Widget Released

19 May

Posted by bc as Monetization, Widgets

I just came across a really cool widget for monetizing your blog using the new AuctionAds.com service.

The Auction Ads Widget allows you to monetize your website by displaying live eBay auctions in your blog sidebar. If you are familar with the way Google Adsense operates (which uses javascript to display ads), you will be right at home with this new Auction Ads Widget. All configuration can be done in the Widgets section of yourÂ WordPress installation.

Requirements

The only requirement to use this Widget is that you should have an AuctionAds.com account. It easy and free to sign-up and just takes a minute to do. After sign-up you will now have a Publisher ID which you can enter into the widget configuration area.

Widget Installation

Simply extract the file to your wp-content/widget/ directory. Go to Presentation tab and select Widgets (WP 2.2) or Sidebar Widgets (WP 2.0+). You can drag and drop the AuctionAds widget onto the sidebar. Configure it with your AuctionAds.com ID (which you will have received after signup) and Campaign ID if you have one. Select the appropriate layout and change the color according to your own theme color. You can enter a keyword or multiple keywords so that you can trigger appropriate Ads for your blog. Click save… and thats it!
