Chitika New Mobile Ads Mean More Revenue For You


 

 

Hi,

We are excited to let you know that we will begin rolling out our new Mobile Ads program across your website(s) today!  Now, in addition to your regular Chitika ad revenue, you will earn even more from these new ads targeted to visitors viewing your website on a mobile device*.

Here are some answers to your questions regarding our new mobile ads:

Why Do I Want Mobile Ads?
Chitika's mobile ads are designed specifically for mobile users, and should result in more clicks and more revenue from your mobile traffic stream.  The ads are designed to be noticeable on mobile devices without hurting the experience of your site.

When will these ads start to display for my account?
We are rolling these ads out slowly starting with a small portion of traffic, and then we will slowly increase this until mobile ads are live across the entire Chitika network.

What will they look like?
Here is a sample image:

How often will they be displayed?
Mobile ads will be displayed similar to how our Select ads are displayed: only when there is a high chance the ad will result in revenue for you.  So in other words, they will not be displayed 100% of the time.


How much revenue will I earn?
Mobile earnings will depend on your mobile traffic and will work very similar to the way you earn revenue from our regular desktop ads.  There will be separate, custom reporting for mobile ads available very soon.  

Do I have to make any changes for Mobile ads to be live for my site?
No.  Since you already have our ad code running, Mobile ads will display automatically without any action needed on your part.

What if I don't want mobile ads displayed on my website(s)?
You can easily disable mobile ads by logging in, and going to 'My Account'.  You can also
re-enable then later if you change your mind or you'd like to test them out.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our
Customer Support.

-The Chitika Team


*Chitika mobile ads are currently displayed on the iPhone and Android only.  Other devices will be added soon.

Brief Chitika Display Issue

Hello Masrul ,

Today, Chitika suffered a brief display issue from 3:31 pm - 4:02 pm Eastern Time.  During this time, a bug caused a very large over-sized ad to be shown instead of our normal-sized ads.  This was supposed to be a small test of a new ad unit on a few sites, but ended up accidentally rolling out across the network as a whole.

Our engineers caught this issue very shortly after release and fixed the problem as quickly as possible.  We apologize for the inconvenience during this window of operation.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Best Regards,
Chitika Customer Support
