Hello guys,
Today i'm going to talk about the hottest topic on internet yes that was ad-sense. We all well know about this program but get a problem of ad-sense is the some kinds of terms and conditions even i can't able to understand them so i moved on to chitika ads. i suggested you chitika is the second best ads company for publisher's let me tell you in detailed.
Chitika is an Adsense alternative, and it serves contextual search targetted keyword based ads. Recently I tried using it on one of
my sites, and I must say I am not impressed. There are several good
things about this ad network, especially its user interface, but it
simply did not work for me. I used the ads as they come right out of
their user interface without experimentation or tweaking.
- Chitika ads are not contextual, but search targetted, so there is no
point in looking at the ads on a page without actually searching for
it. What about my direct visitors?
- All of my international traffic is wasted. Chitika works only with
US and Canada based visitors, so if your site has a lot of international
traffic, it is just ignored.
- It sometimes shows duplicate ads in different ad blocks on the same
page. Not only that, I also saw ads from the same domain name occuring
in the same ad block
- Very low CTR. I think the ads were positioned well enough. My site
was approved for Silver level ads. As Chitika advertises, the CTR and
CPC might be better if you are approved for Gold level ads.
- Chitika has a better variety of ad sizes and formats. I especially
like the list format in which it automatically displays a map or an
image beside the ads. This works well if you have a site that might
benefit from location based ads.
Chitika has conflicting reviews from other bloggers and webmasters.
As I already said chitika is a famous ad network that pays their
publishers according to CPM and PPC systems. I mean you can earn for
both ad clicks as well as unique impressions. Newly they also introduced
an affiliate system through the same ads known as conversions.
The advertisements served by them are very sensitive to the keywords
of the particular pages. When a person searches ‘ Chitika review ‘ in
google and then reaches this post , an ad related to chitika products
will be shown to him. I think now you understood the working nature of
chitika.
In case of a direct view of the ad , they may show a blank one or an
ad from answered questions dot com. You might already knows it if you
are a publisher of chitika.
Types Of Ads
Chitika stays on the first position when it comes to the ad types. They are providing the below ad types for their publishers :
Text Ads :
So, these are the most powerful ads in these days that can be
displayed to any operating system. Text ads keep the information outside
as a title for blog post, that’s why we can expect more clicks for
these stuff.
List unit Ads :
In chitika , I don’t use these ads as they appear like we are
blogging for just generating income. That means they occupy most of the
place in the sidebar and leaves a clumsy impact on the visitor. We have
an option to display upto 3 to 9 text ads in a list, which I don’t
recommend.
Mobile Ads :
Now a days the number of mobile internet users are increased by a
great extent , so we required to monetize the mobile traffic too to
maximize our earnings. In chitika , the mobile ads appear as a small
size banners about click to download tools, facebook and anyother thing.
How much Chitika Pays ?
I think this question has been asked for a million times in the
Internet, but sadly there is no exact answer for it. They pay around
$0.30-$3.00 for each thousand views . You may confuse with the huge
difference, in fact your earnings depends on the country from where you
are receiving the traffic. If your blog has a good amount of visitors
from UK,USA and Canada, then you got the jackpot.
Now coming to the pay per click ads, which are disastrous to think
about. I think chitika pays around one cent for each click we receive
from our traffic.
Chitika has a nice referral system for their publishers , which makes 10% of referral earnings upto one year.
After reaching the minimum amount of $10 we can make payout to our paypal, but in case of a check it takes $50 to withdraw.
