A guide to increasing your Chitika earnings, Part 2

Dear hotourswaps This is part two of our 3-part mini series featuring the very best tips to maximize your Chitika ad revenue. Today, we will be analyzing best possible placements, and how channels can rock your reports. 3-Part Mini Series Today - Part 2
Tip #3 Placement Importance. The placement of your ads is one of the biggest (if not the biggest) factors in your ad performance. You can customize your ad perfectly, but if it is in a spot where nobody is seeing it, then you won't get any clicks on it. MEGA-Unit best placement: Below your articles- directly below (above any horizontal lines or links). Lines or page breaks at the end of an article scream 'Stop reading!”; you don't want your Chitika ad below this. This alone will significantly help the CTR of your Mega unit. Here is a great example of how Chitika publisher Dave Taylor placed the Mega Unit ABOVE a horizontal rule for maximum performance. Other General Placement Tips: On your top search pages. This is probably the most important.  Premium ads only display to your search traffic- so this is a given. Even though this seems simple, it's often overlooked. Above or below article titles. See it in action here. Within your text/content. They typically perform better in the middle of your pages than on the side-bars of your pages. Where your readers' eyes go, the clicks will follow. Remember – since your Chitika |Premium ads only display to your search engine traffic, your regular readers won’t even see them (less ads keeps your regular readers happy).  Helpful Links: Chitika Premium Heat Map Tip #4 Channels. Simply put, channels are what you use to track the performance of your ad units separately. This is important so that you know which ads in which sizes and placements do better than others. Once you figure out which ads perform the best, it's smooth sailing from there-on-out. You can sit back and relax knowing you're receiving the best payout possible from your ads. Easily set this up in the Chitika|Premium code panel or simply edit the following line from right within your code on your site: ch_sid = "PutChannelNameHere"; Commonly asked questions: Can I use channels to track multiple ad units on different pages even though they are the same size and vice versa? Yes, all you have to do is label them differently, such as: “Mega_Unit1” and “Mega_Unit2” Do I have to log into my Chitika account and create a brand new code to activate the channel? No.  All you have to do is edit the following line in each individual code from right within your site:  ch_sid = "ChannelNameHere"; LOGIN now to update your Chitika ad unit(s) Your Username Is: hotourswaps Have something to say?

Higher revenue from Chitika, is it really this easy?

Dear Sienna, Optimization specialists here at Chitika reach out to publishers daily, working one-on-one to make simple changes that result in higher revenue. And it didn't take long to realize that sometimes the smallest changes really make a big difference. So we put together some of the most important things you need to know that can help make your payout from Chitika higher. You will learn them all in our: 3-Part Mini Series Today - Part 1
Tip #1 Which Premium ad size is best & why?  Our optimization's team created the Mega Unit specifically to meet the needs of select clients they were working with.  And the results were so amazing, we made it available network-wide. It comes in two sizes: 550x250, 500x250.  Click here to get your Mega Unit ad code. It delivers 4 times as much clicks and revenue than our traditional Premium ad banners, and Chitika publishers like ArticleAlley.com reported the following after adding the MEGA-Unit to his site: “The result was a massive 721% increase in income -  without any noticeable knock on effect to our other income providers.”  - Adrian, ArticleAlley Where do you place it? Directly above or below the main content.  For example, you can see where ArticleAlley.com put it on this page (scroll to bottom of article). Tip #2 Customization. This will vary from site to site, but simply copying and pasting the default ad code from your code panel, while it may be easiest thing to do, could be highly effecting the CTR of your ads negitively. At the very least, match the title/link color to the other titles and/links on your site. Making it blend with the site like this could directly increase your CTR. You can go as far as selecting a font type. You can even do all of this without logging into your Chitika account and starting over, just click here for a complete list on code edits.
