Chitika Review

Chitika Review
Chitika is a pay per click ad network that many, most of which have been banned from adsense, are starting to move across to. Chitika’s ads have a similar look and feel to adsense making them familiar to visitors. The difference is that the ads are search targeted meaning the ads displayed are driven by the keywords in which the visitor typed into the search engine to get to your site.

Bidvertiser Review



Bidvertiser Review
Bidvertiser is another advertising agency that is a great option for those who have been banned from adsense. Bidvertiser have been around since 2003 and are unique in the fact that not only do they pay per click but also on conversions too which can lead to a very healthy income stream. Like most other pay per clickagencies Bidvertiser ensure that only the highest paying ads are displayed on your site. We received immediate confirmation that our account had been activated after sign up. It doesn’t seem that they have any approval criteria in regards to traffic or the language of the site.

How does Bidvertiser Operate?

Bidvertiser offers their own toolbar that allows people to search and see sponsored results in your website, this can be customised to look like it is part of your website and can be a good money earner. They also have a PPC ad network which also pays out on actual sales.



They offer a few different ad choices along with their toolbar, including Banners, Buttons, Inline Ads and Skyscrapers.
Bidvertiser do not accept adult content sites or sites that contain a large amount of advertising material in relation to content.

  • The toolbar can be altered in appearance to work with the look of your site
NEGATIVES
  • Not very high pay out rates per click (this might only be the case with our chosen niches)
  • Ads aren’t always relevant to the content if you are targeting a small niche
  • Reporting within the Bidvertiser site is quite basic and doesn’t give a lot of information on number of impressions or on click through rates

Bidvertiser offer you the opportunity to bring in a decent income with the toolbar but generally have a lower pay out rate than Adsense for PPC. Although this is meant to increase with time the longer you stay with them – we haven’t noticed this yet.

This is $10 with PayPal, PayPal, Skrill and MoneyBookers, $100 by cheque and $500 by wire. If you have earned less than the minimum payment your balance is carried over to the following month.
Earnings are tracked in a very clunky reporting system that ideally needs to provide more information.
