WOW. Found a blog I had forgotten about and it had Chitika ads placed strategically here and there. Checked the stats...... Over 5,000 impressions over a long period. 1 click! For $.06 That is laughable.
I have never been able to make much money with Chitika. Best I've done is around $1.00/month. With Adsense I am able to make around $300/month.
I honestly never really bothered with Chikita just seems like a waste of time. Adsense pays so much better.
Adsense pays more but I just love Chitika because of its low payout option and Paypal option. I take a decades to generate 100$ cash out from Adsense.
Adsense overall is better, but chitika works with adsense and you wont get banned so why not use them. You get alot more clicks if you get more seo searches. If your getting pure social networking traffic you wont see as much money. If you want an easy way to montitize search engine traffic without any work i would highly reccomend them.
