Revenue Sharing with Chitika now Available
Great news everybody!
We have officially enabled revenue sharing through Chitika on top of our current Adsense sharing.
How does Chitika revenue share work on Infobarrel?
We’ve spent the last two weeks testing earnings and click through rates using Adsense and Chitika in different positions. After a few different tests we’ve come to the conclusion that combining both Chitika and Adsense in the current layout provides greater earnings than just Adsense alone.
Simple signup for Chitika, add your Chitika login to your Infobarrel account, and as soon as we verify your account you can begin earning money with Chitika
Benefits to Chitika
One of the really cool things about Chitika, is members can get paid via paypal after accumulating just $10, so making the monthly payment minimum will be much easier.
Things to know about Chitika
After getting your Chitika account fully functioning with Infobarrel, you will start seeing ad impressions in your Chitika account the following day. It will not show earnings for roughly 3-5 days as Chitika’s earning’s reports are all audited.
That is about it! Signup for Chitika today and add another passive revenue stream to your content here at Infobarrel!

Hi,
I’m trying to apply for a Chitika account and I’m confused on what URL to type in the box. Should we use our infobarrel profile page or another URL for a blog if we have one? Will we have to apply separately for each site we want to register with Chitika or will they provide us with a pub id like adsense does that would work on all of our sites? Thanks in advance for your help!

Very interesting! As you are placing both Chitika and Adsense ads on the same page I suppose neither of them has clauses that exclude competitors?

Hey BestBommy,
Yea, just apply using the http://www.infobarrel.com URL. We have direct contact with Chitika and this was how they told us to tell our writers to apply.

Hey Enermazing,
Yea, there is no conflict between Google Adsense and Chitika as Chitika is based on search strings while Google is contextual based upon in page content.

Okay, I’ve been approved at Chitika and have entered my login name on my Infobarrel account. Is there anything else I need to do? Thanks!

Hey BestMommy,
That should be it! You should notice Chitika impressions in your Chitika account tomorrow if you are receiving search engine traffic to your articles. It will take 4-5 days before Chitika actually places a value on your impressions, so don’t worry when it doesn’t show earnings right away.

Speaking of ad revenue…….I noticed the Kontera text links in our articles. Are you sharing Kontera ad revenue with writers and if so how do we go about signing up for that? Thanks!

Hey Bestmommy,
Unfortunately the Kontera revenue is not shared. Running a site like Infobarrel costs a fair amount of money. The revenue from Kontera goes to pay for Infobarrel’s servers, the employees, the prizes for the contests as well as advertising the site to ensure your articles get traffic.
Hopefully you understand!
