Goodbye chitika, welcome back adsense!

So I tried running chitika for a month on one of my automotive websites. Long story short I was not impressed. First of all, my profits went down 100% from what I was making with adsense on the same site. Second, the page loading times went up with chitika's buggy code. And finally any profit that I did make, at the end of the month, was mysteriously audited to $0. So welcome back adsense! Sorry I ever doubted you

 

That's a pretty good indication.

 

The trick is to use Chitika AND AdSense, not one or the other.

 

So, Your audited revenue was 0$ but it was 100% of unaudient, since it was down 100% or to 0?

 

I agree, its not really one or the other. Chitika should not replace adsense, and vice versa, they should work together.

 

Haha! good job bro. Chitika took over 75% of my revenue! Not too nice..

 

Bingo! Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

 

I ran chitika to replace adsense's PSAs but I'm gonna take it down...anyone has alternatives?

 

I think that best role for Chitika in a situation like the automotive one mentioned in this thread is, as another poster said, run them together, but make it a 90-10 ratio, with AdSense getting the lion's share.

At the very least, it could help combat AdSense text ad blindness when something with a picture shows up every once in a while.

 

I second you

 

I have had the same experince. Chiquita ads just didnt cut it for me. I wish I could get yahoo ads here in canada. Until then adsense will have to do.

 

Even I tried Chitika but it does not work for me also. Also they have disabled counting of clicks from my own country India from which I get so much traffic. I will remove Chitika ads soon from my site. They sucks for me. Adsense is far better than Chitika!

 

I've never had that much luck with chitika, I found amazon and adsense worked well together.

 

Adsence is best i think

 

Also check yahoo too as it has some high pay lol

 

Isn´t against any TOS to put Adsense and Chitika on the same page?
Thanks, Paul.

 

As long as Chitika is not in 'contextual' mode, and you are using the keywords system, it is 100% ok.

 

Thanks Riboflabin, that is great

 

I agree that they should work together, but chitika is not doing well on my website at all.
