Widgets are easy internet applications that allow your fans to easily spread the word by putting the content you create onto their websites, blogs and social networking pages.  Here are a few sites that I like to use:

• Sprout
• Widgetbox
• Clearspring

It’s pretty easy to design and their tutorials are fast.  If you’re on a budget, you can use it as an inexpensive way to make banner ads, mini websites and feature video.  Try it!
