A widget as per Bonanza, is a code that can be placed on blogs/web pages that provide pictures and links back to your items.

to create a Widget, go to your booth page

Booth Toolbox (left column)
Create a Widget
you will be taken to a page that shows small thumbnails of your items
Create a Name for your widget
Choose the style for your widget
Choose the items you want to show (please note, that once created, when you look at listings whether yours or anyone else’s, you can add the item to the widget)

When finished, a html code is created which you copy and can insert/paste on web page or blog

here is one thay I made a while back for one of my web pages…

It’s busy work when you don’t have anything to ship out or you’ve conquered the lingering fear that you didn’t get enough keywords and item traits in your listings. Take a nap, it’s infinitely more productive.

To Answer Brilliantly

Remember these tips:

  • Use links to other sources to support your opinions
  • Use examples where possible

Should I post a comment or an answer?

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

Post an answer for:

  • Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question

Post a comment for:

  • "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
  • When you would like the original poster to provide more details
  • When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
