    My unaudited revenue drop more than 50% in a last 8 days from the beginning of the mount.
    My number of impressions and unique visitors is going high every day in a last 2 month.
    I never had less than 0.18% CTR with any other affiliate system before.

    I made a test in a last 3 days I am showing the Chitika Ad if the visitor is from US,UK,CA,FR,DE,SP only.
    My CTR is still around 0.18%.

    If I use any other PPC affiliate system my CTR is around 0.60%.

    The situation is very strange for me???????:rolleyes:

    I've also noticed a huge drop for the last couple of days. Gone from $15 a day to $4

    I've seen the same drop. The bad news with Chitika continues. This is the third drastic decrease in CPM in the last month (Curiosity Clicks, Audits). I'm gonna fire an email off to Venkat and if he responds with the same old excuses, then it's over for me.

    I wonder if advertisers are bailing out? Or paying way less now.

    I've noticed a big drop in CPC as well

    Im not complaining though. I hope Chitika comes around, because I really like the control it gives.

    Actually and surprisingly. My cpc & epm is going up. I was about to dump Chitika and I still might depending on my audited figures come in for next month. I think it is very dependent on the type of site as others have suggested.

    I've noticed most of my keywords have a static cpc but some have increased. Even Xbox 360 is on the up! :D
