How to increase your chitika revenue

If you have done some research on Google Adsense alternatives you can side with me that you may have come across many websites/blogs highlighting Chitika as one of the best Adsense alternatives.

Chitika is a CPC (cost per click) and CPM (cost per mile) ad network which gives publishers an opportunity to monetize their content by serving ads on the ad spaces of their websites/ blogs.  Chitika is not strict on approvals on blogs/websites hence it is advisable for newbies small blogs with little content.

Many people after getting approved by ad networks they just place the ad codes on the ad spaces and they consider that is enough and wait to start earning revenue from their web traffic. Well for some things work well for them and they feel contented with what they get but I have seen quite a number of people complaining of low earnings from chitika and other ad networks including Google Adsense despite having high traffic on their websites/blogs.

In this content am going to dwell more with Chitika.

Utilise Chitika Apps

Chitika has got some application feature that helps publishers to earn more with their blog content. They contain of three tools; hover, Linux and Chitika Highlight. As a publisher you should always ensure that these applications are always enabled and always use the standard text ad type and place this ad wherever you wish.

Place Chitika Ads WISELY

Chitika offers textual ads according to the Keywords on your content. While placing chitika ads you should not place them on empty pages or on pages with more images than content.

REMEMBER since chitika ads are more textual than images they are likely to create more clicks when place in between the content and the more the clicks the higher the revenue.

Number of ads on the website or blog

I always recommend publishers to avoid placing of too many ads on the sides of their websites. This makes blog readers to loose confidence with your content since your website/blog is more of an AD site than the content in it. This drives away your readers and once you loose your blog traffic that means no revenue for you.

Enable Mobile Ads

As a publisher the main thing you should always consider while placing ads on your blog is that over 85% of internet users use their phone/tablets in browsing and very few people use desktops.

With this you should always consider placing more of mobile ads rather than desktop ads. When you use desktop ads only, and a blog reader using a mobile phone views the ads and clicks on them, there will be no revenue for you on that click. I would recommend you to always use both desktop and mobile ads at the same time.
