You are right and i have seen the REPORTS are sometimes even more late(around 12Hours More) than normal.
Yes, the reporting is one of the most frustrating aspects of all this. I am used to being able to tune and maximize my AdSense income activity on a short cycle of adjust, run for a day, adjust, repeat. With Chitika, I can't see the results of a change until late in the next day and it's another day and a half after that before I can see the results on an adjustment that follows on from there.
Also iam Eagerly waiting for the Audited Results, Where as in adsense the results come up Instantly. This is also an Important Aspect.
Chitika says that they are working to make reporting fast... well we can hope that soon chitika will make reporting LIVE REPORTING..
Im think about adding this to my site can someone tell me a few things... You get paid per sale and per click? What is the percentage for sales? Are the ads targeted to pages automatically or do you have to enter in keywords... Also is it possible to customize the ad because as far I have seen it it looks extremely bad in my opinion, but i guess the money is good?
You can set alt ads for your adsense so that they dont stay blank or display public ads which you dont get paid for.
np Wally. That's what we are here for. To share our knowledge so we can all enjoy profitable publishing experiences.
I finally bit the bullet and relegated Chitika to be "backup ads". I have a database of 800,000+ affiliate products and I wrote some code to pick products in a rotation out of that based on keywords, just like Chitika. If I don't find something there, I'll display a Chitika ad instead. I won't get paid per click, but I expect I'll make more since the affiliate sales pay more. I got tired of making pennies on thousands of impressions per day.
You are not thinking about Long-Term Benefits Cos this referral Link gives u income which lasts only for a Year
I've made $0.06 on referral revenue. No way I'd give that up. Wait, those are probably my referrals clicking on their own ads, I'm sure they'll audit them away in a month.
