    Hi
    I have a couple of websites that were pure MFA sites. After reading stories about being banned from Adsense I decided not to risk my account and switched all ads to Chitika. Guess what? Looks like I make more!!!
    CPC is lower but CTR is twice higher :)
    To be honest I almost gave up on Chitika because of low pay per click, but now I feel like there is a new stream of income coming my way :cool:

    Are you using their search product too? Or just using the ads?

    Yah, which Chitika product are you using? i just started testing their Premium unit (the one based on search engine traffic only) and it's not doing so great..

    Obviously depending on your traffic, how many impressions are you averaging on 30 days? I am gettin 0.92 eCPM with 30k impressions for 30 days. Not bad but could be better.

    I'm using their Premium unit too. I was using it on other sites and results were really bad, so I almost gave up on Chitika. I target high paying keywords and with CTR about 20% results are much better. I guess it all depends on the keywords.

    Please do me and yourself a favor, just ignore all my posts, dont read them ;)

    I get 30K impressions in just a day or so, and average a eCPM of about 0.64 using the Chitika premium unit

    People keep looking for that elusive Adsense Alternative that pays. It's like drinking store brand Cola and pretending it's "Coke". Chitka is a very specific product oriented program. Adsense works with nearly everything.

    "so hopefully we won't see you post here again? thank god"

    This made me laugh... thanks.
