Debt.com Business in a Box

Description

Debt.com works with publishers to monetize their traffic with lead generation efforts. Business in a Box allows WordPress
blogs and sites to offer these forms, phone numbers, and comparison widgets without needing programming expertise.

Upon configuration, the Plugin adds 5 Widgets and 13 Shortcodes to make it esay to implement forms, calculators, comparison engines, and advertisement within your site.
Users are able to complete their experience on your website, only redirecting to an external signup page of the advertiser requires submission on their site. Debt.com
will also provide a landing page that your form links to, that has more information for users that want to learn more before applying.

Revenue Opportunity: The various widgets use comparable space to an Adsense Advertising block, and potentially generate 20% or more revenue than the equivalent Ad Sense Unit,
without taking the user off your site. There is no conflict with running Adsense and Business in a Box, successful publishers do run both.

All Service Providers must abide by the Debt.com Code of Ethics.

Note: Donate Link is to our primary corporate charity.
