New different (lower) rates

Did you noticed that chitika has made changes in their rates per click? Until now all clicks were of 0.11$ and now they differ, like at adsense. Now I have many 0.1$ clciks and don't like it

 

Since April 28th. Unless you domain is a gold approved they'll be .01 or less........

 

That is terrible, they were my next best network next to Google AdSense.

 

Yeah they really screwed up with this new scheme of theirs. If you have a decent website you can be among the lucky ones though and the payouts are even higher than before in that case.

 

Wow that's pretty bad... Chitika was a good ad service but now they just messed up real bad...

 

The clicks were never guaranteed to be $0.11 - I had different values all the time - depending on the site and also just random fluctuations up or down. Of course, it all is now a moot point - they seem to be falling apart as we speak and as a result you can be sure the CPC will go down until it reaches single cent per click or even a fraction of a cent per click.

They won't be alone though - other low quality CPC programs pay a fraction of a cent per click, too - AdBrite for example.

 

Chitika | Premium displays ads to visitors that reach a page directly from a major search engine. They detect the search query used by the visitor and then return ads that best match that search query. Returning well-targeted, highly relevant ads should result in a higher Click-through rate
