I heard a lot of good things about Chitika, such as high ctr and high cpc. But will it lasts long? What's the conversion rate for the advertisers? If the ads is not effective, don't think advertisers will using it for any longer...
I havent been getting good CTRs on Chitika.. Infact very low... I guess this is good for websites and blogs which are into mobiles and gadgets world
The response (revenue) for Chitika depends very much on your topic. I have some sites where I can't get a decent ad (product) to come up so of course won't have decent click through or profit. However I have some sites (educational sites for example) where I wasn't getting a good PPC click through with others but am doing much better with Chitika. It is not a magic bullet but can be effective and profitable on the right sites but I wouldn't suggest relying entirely on one income strategy anyway. Test and compare and regularly re-evaluate.
I have never had very high ctrs with chitka ads. In fact they only claim about 1% ctr in their own internal testing.
