Advertising Widgets

What are Ad widgets?

“Ad widgets” are simply widgets that are built to the standards of online advertisements, and can be deployed through an advertising network for distribution and advertising placement. NewsGator’s Ad widgets contain dynamic content through RSS (video, audio, text) and can be shared to all of the major social networks, blogs and personal start pages through a single click.

Who uses advertising widgets?

Do you sell advertising or buy advertising? If so, then widgets are for you. Brands use widgets to extend their brands beyond their websites, and to engage their customers in conversation.

What benefits do you get from widgets?

• Brand extension
• Better customer engagement
• Viral distribution turns your customers into re-advertisers for you

How do widgets work?

NewsGator Widgets is a completely hosted service, meaning you don’t have to install any software to get started. Creating your first widget is as simple as signing up for an account, selecting a content feed and a presentation template, and then adding the widget to your web page, blog, start page or social network.

We also provide professional services and a growing network of digital web shops to help you create the most compelling engagement and presentation within your widget.

What About Analytics?

Among the most powerful aspects of NewsGator widgets are the analytics and tracking data that come with them.  NewsGator allows you to build widgets that are highly portable and can be shared on websites, blogs, personal homepages or social networks.  Your widgets can even be integrated with external ad and analytics servers, allowing you to monetize them based on how often people view and interact with them.
