Monetize Your Website with Chitika
The most widely known, and widely
used, advertising program on the
internet is Google Adsense. That
being said, most everyone knows
what an Adsense ad looks like and
are therefore less likely to click on it.
This is why it can be a good strategy
to employ different advertising
solutions to supplement your Adsense
account. One of those solutions is
Chitika.
Chitika is an interesting advertising method that targets your visitors last searched for keywords. So if someone searched for flowers a few days ago, and end up on a sited that is targeted for the make money niche, they will get ads for flowers.
This method doesn’t seem like it would work, but Adsense has just implemented a program that uses the Chitika thought process to fill in the blanks when they don’t have enough targeted ads for a niche.
Ad Setup
Possibly the best part about the Chitika program is that each ad has its own picture next to it. Photos draw the attention of the reader and help to increase the click through ratio. This is great approach to compete with the big dogs. Because Chitika is a smaller advertising company than Google Adsense, they obviously have less access to the quantity of ads than Google does. To compete with this, the innovation of adding photos to their advertisements puts them on a different playing field. They may not have the most targeted ads, but the photos add a different appeal. Check out this screenshot of a Chitika advertisement. That

recycled art.
Referral Program
One definite bonus to the Chitika program is that they have a good referral program. If you sign up for nothing else, sign up for this. With the referral program you will earn 10% of all of your referrals earnings for the first 15 months of their membership. Don’t worry. Your referrals won’t lose any money. This cut comes directly from Chitika’s pockets. Also, if you are writing for Infobarrel, or building links on SheToldMe, you should sign up because you will receive revenue sharing from these programs. Chitika is another way to monetize your website and make money online.
