Media Widgets
Widgets are self-contained portable components that run on web pages. Widgets can include text, image, sound, and video components and are portable, meaning site visitors can add them to their own web pages, blogs, start pages, and social network profiles.
Media companies use widgets to extend their brands, to syndicate and monetize their content on other web sites.

NewsGator Widgets are part of a 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 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.
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. Read more about Analytics...
