If you are an Internet marketer like me you probably hear a lot about AdSense from Internet marketers. If you are reading this article I am guessing you probably already have a deep knowledge of what Google AdSense is and understand what PPC or pay per click is. When I first started out blogging 6 months ago everybody on digitalpoint and, sitepoint couldn’t stop the rave about AdSense. I use AdSense to this day and it is still one of my biggest income producer. But recently I found out about Chitika and I wish I would have learned about them sooner.

Chitika is a PPC program that works just like AdSense. The company will put an ad on your website and show products relevant to the search term the person typed in to find your blog. If you had a blog on software and I typed in, “SEO Software products” then the Chitika ad will show products based upon that search term. Because the ad’s look less like an advertisement and more like an amazon product page you can expect your CTR to skyrocket.

If your like me and your click through rate has been nothing to talk about then you should try Chitika. The reason that your click through rate is bad is because most people get a thing called “ad block” where if they have seen and advertisement over and over they are less inclined to see it, thus losing you money and your blog or website value goes down.

Chitika being a new company doesn’t have that problem in fact Chitika is quite the opposite. Chitika ad’s are in fact are so different then AdSense ad’s they can really shake up the reader. When so many people use the same ad’s do you think after a while they wont block the ad’s out. Why do you think fortune 500 companies don’t keep ruining the same ad for longer then a year. Because after a while you get so accustom to seeing the ad you mentally block it out. The same happens with AdSense how many times have you seen their ad’s?

Chitika payouts are higher then Google AdSense because it’s a higher quality PPC company. Also unlike Google AdSense you wont see people getting clicks for.1-.5 cents like I get a lot on my gaming blog. You are going to see healthy.50-2.00 clicks often enough your going to expect it. The best part is once you have reached 10$ you can send the money to you paypal account. Google has a 100$ mark which at first can be hard if your just trying to pay for the hosting cost per month.

Chitika is something you should try on your websites and blogs and see if they get higher CTR then AdSense. Remember don’t make the mistake I did and not test out other PPC companies like Chitka remember like the problogger says don’t leave money on the table you could have had by doing something as simple as testing out other PPC companies.
