A long time ago when I tried to make money online with my very first site, I applied for Chitika but got denied because I did not have enough search engine traffic. That has changed now and so recently I applied again. This time however as I guessed I would be, I was approved... you see now My site has search engine traffic and that is what Chitika looks for.
Chitika is a pay per click program much like Adsense but with a twist their ads don't show up on your site unless the person visiting your site came to it via a search engine like Google.
I have heard other bloggers say they have a better conversion rate than Adsense with Chitika...that I have not seen so far but it does convert pretty decent. Visitors are more likely to click Chitika Ads because they place small icon like images beside each text ad in the block as you can from the
screen shot here. Notice as well the term make money online with netsel is highlighted in yellow in the ad block, because this is what I searched for in Google to find My Blog. Those little unrelated icons beside each text ad makes people click and this makes Chitika unique because Adsense does not have this feature nor are you allowed to use images beside your Adsense Ad blocks to influence clicking , do that and Adsense will close your account.However even though this produces clicks on par with or more than Adsense Chitika still does not pay as much as Adsense per click in My opinion. What I have made for July with Chitika so far is what I make in a day with Adsense.
But never you forget the golden rule any secondary money is good money earned from your site or blog just as long as it does not affect your primary source of income. So will I keep Chitika on my site ? I most certainly will. Thats another check at the end of the month for little or no effort and it does not affect my Adsense earnings or My ability to sell online.
I will post more on Chitika when I get paid from them and I will also include some account screen shots and a copy of the check if their TOS allows for this. Hope you found this information useful.
