Managing Multiple Chitika eMinimalls Ads in WordPress

I’d wager that a substantial percentage of product bloggers have learnt the power of Chitika eMinimalls (aff link) over the past year or so - perhaps even to the extent that their eMinimalls revenue exceeds AdSense on some of their product blogs.
So, it shouldn’t be surprising to find bloggers who want to place multiple […]

How to Setup Chitika ShopLinc on Your Own Domain

If you are among the Chitika eMinimalls (aff link) publishers who have been accepted into the ShopLinc beta programme, I’m pretty sure the first thing you would want to do is to setup your blog or site’s ShopLinc on your own domain, e.g. shop.yourdomain.com.
Chitika does have a FAQ entry for this (which has been […]

Chitika Running Adult Ads?

Seen “adult” Chitika ads on your blogs recently? Well, I haven’t, but a few have been caught (with screenshots and all) over at JenSense.

Jen has blurred the screenshot thumbnails to remain family and work-friendly, but you can click into the screenshots to see some “uncensored” screens. As a commenter notes, it’s nothing particularly “adult” given […]

Chitika Unaudited Statistics Slow: Yet Again?

I’m not too sure about other Chitika publishers, but I’ve noticed that my Chitika’s unaudited revenue statistics are being published late by an additional day since a couple of days back. Previously, Chitika publishers - including me - have been getting their statistics late by only one day, but since a couple of days back, […]

January 2006 Chitika Payment

I’m not sure about other Chitika publishers, but I’ve just received payment by Chitika for January 2006’s ad revenue through PayPal. Moreover, my Audited vs. Unaudited Revenue differed relatively mildly, at around 20%.
Those requesting payment by check will probably have to wait another month or so. At least, that’s what has been happening lately.

Edit: There […]

Chitika: Seasonal Specials and Popular Items

If you log into Chitika, you will notice that Chitika is promoting their recent released Category Hints feature. More specifically, they are promoting the Seasonal Specials category and Popular Items category - both of which display the latest and most popular items, by season or by account/network, respectively.
Check out the screenshot below:

But I haven’t found […]

Custom Chitika eMinimalls Reports

The Chitika Blog annnounces the availability of custom aggregate reports, where custom just means that you’ll be able to select the date range of the aggregate reports. Channel-wise, you will still be able to view reports per individual channel only. See the screenshot below.

But on Firefox, I encountered a problem in trying to set the […]

Chitika: Minor Interface Change

It seems Chitika has done a tiny makeover on its publisher page, removing the large icons for a CSS / DHTML horizontal menu. While it is nothing significant nor important, it does make navigation a little faster and easier.
But I’d still prefer if they worked on shortening their turnaround and auditing times rather than […]
