I joined Chitika about 4 days ago, I have 342 clicks but the pay is not showing in the reports yet, what's the average pay per click on chitika?? Is it a lot lower than adsense or same? Thanks
If you just opened an account you need to wait 3 days before start seeing how much you get per click. Also their reports updated daily in the morning, not real time. I just joined them too and get 0.11 per click. Whats weird they pay same 11 cents on 3 of my sites in different niches...
Yes, I have heard from everywhere else that they pay nearly $0.10 CPC for all visitors and about $0.30 CPC for US visitors and good niche.
From what I see in my chitika account, using chitika premium ads, I'm paid only for US & canada traffic. And from the data I gathered for the last few weeks, my CPC is about $0.06 when adsense is about $0.2, but adsense's CTR hasn't decrease as a result of adding chitika, so both incomes add up.
chitika pays $0.11 which is cool...however adsense has a varrying CTR...sometimes its as low as $0.01 and an amazing$6...today i had 7clicks worth 0.07 and one that was worth $1....wait 3days and you will be able to see your earnings.
Wow 0.11 cents. Do you guys think thats even worth the time it takes to build a site and start sending traffic to it if you're only getting 0.11 cents per click? With my adsense sites. If the average clicks are not .50 or more I don't even bother with the niche.
chitika is one of the best adsense alternatives i have ever seen for some keywords it even pays around 5-10$ paer click also i am fan of chitika but what u need is 3 things 1.search engine traffic 2.almost 90% of us/canada traffic 3.keyword targetted content matching your niche
Chitika doesn't show the earning directly, so you need to wait until the next day minimal. Regarding the earnings, before this month I always made $0.11/click, but I only had it installed on one site. This month I added it to every site I have and I've had days where my clicks were even more. On one day my average CPC was $0.44 which means that some clicks even made more then the $0.30 I saw someone talking about. Still don't know how they calculate the worth of every click, but I'm not complaining this month Leslie
hmm..seems like interesting to try Chitika. I'll be experimenting with in a few days to see whether it works best for me or not.
This thread is exactly what I was looking for as I joined Chikita and was accepted today. I read the testimonial from that askthebuilder bloke. As long as it doesn't change my AdSense earnings - the average is much higher than those quoted above - sorry, that sounded big headed
Hmm, i like AdSense more than Chitika..AdSense give high Cpc, even sometimes their down like a rocket... Try Health niche, and you'll know why.
