The best thing about paypal was that you could almost effortlessly transfer $ when you needed to. Now with this widget, the word almost disappears ;) This is one of the basic widgets, but one of the most useful as well. Thanks for sharing :)

I used already paypal for my transaction. until now never get troubled.

It's looks gret but I don't think many people will use that. I mean not everyone has users dedicated enough to just donate money. They'd rather just click couple ads here and there.

I think part of me is a little reserved about asking for donations...I really don't know why, though. Steve Pavlina put a donations button on his website, and he said that a good amount of his site's income comes from that.

yodude7 said...

Michigan Lasik said...

I never thought the donation buttons actually attracted anyone to donate money...do you find that people actually donate?

Anonymous said...

can i donate some money to this music download site : http://topmp3.info ??

Nasir said...

I was about to get this widget but after reading a couple of posts I realise that indeed just putting that widget wont get you any money. Now, the only guys who would get the money through donations would be some higher up guys.
Therefore, thank you, but no thanks.

Pakde Zaki said...

It's very-very useful. Let's I follow this tutorial.

Tony said...

It would be awsome to get a donation!
I have had a donate button on blog for 1 year and NO donations as yet!:(
