    Is anybody else noticing this? Since the end of December my EPC on Chitika fell with another 11 cent on average..

    Since I started with Chitika in September my average CPC has dropped almost 50% :eek:

    Am I the only one?

    I'm experiencing the same thing here. So far in 2005 my average CPC is about 40% lower than it was back in September and about 20% lower than it was in December. However across all of my sites Chitika revenue is still significantly higher than YPN and AdSense.

    me too! I think it is because the holiday is over and less people are shopping which equates to less quick. It will be interesting to see if this is the experience for the majority.

    Exactly. The decrease per click since the new year has been more in YPN and AdSense than the decrease of Chitika ads for my accounts.

    I'm seeing EPC staying the same, with CTR climbing. However, given that the site is home decor / home furnishings related it could just be that people have started redecorating after Christmas hass passed.

    My earnings have dropped but thats probably because people have stopped buying gadgets after Christmas. It will pick up again later.
