Now, making money on the Internet isn’t easy, I do not care who you are. Unless you’ve got some experience with Internet Marketing or have a horseshoe up your ass, you will not make money onlineeasily. That’s not to state that make money on the Internet is impossible, trust me, it’s very very possible, the problem exists when you are starting out trying to make some cash onlineit will be a much harder task.

For those of you who have not heard of Chitika, let me tell ya, it’s a great substitute to Google for those sites that are high-traffic but have low keyword value or Pay Per Click. You can consider sites that are on Google images and therefore get a lot of traffic from Google or Bing images. Google or Bing images can send a lot of traffic to your site, but the cost per click from visitors coming from the image directories will generally  be very low. Aside from images, there are manysites that do not have high paying keywords but get quite a few clicks. On Google Adsense your pay per click may be very low, often pennies, whereas on Chitika you can increase that to about 10 cents per click which as you can guess will increase your over-all monthly payout. Another benifet to using Chitika over Adsense is that they payout after you reached 10 dollars or more in a given month. I can’t tell you how motivational it is for you to receive some sort of payment for all your hard work online.

That doesn’t mean that you can rely exclusively on Chitika, it’s just another source of revenue that you should be using. Quite frankly, Chitika isn’t as Good as Google for those high paying keywords so I would refrain from using it on your high-paying keyword sites.It’s all about diversifying your portfolio of tools and testing them until you’ve reached the right balance. Chitika can definitely give you that right balance, but do not expect it to be your cash cow. You must remember that Google Adsense is the king of onlineadvertisers, and it therefore has cornered to market, meaning that it can generate more cash per keyword than Chitika.

That said, feel free to experiment, you never know until you try, and using Chitika as part of youron the internet money making strategy is worth it.

And since AdSense can also very well integrated with your site that is easily adaptable in terms of color, size and position means that you have many choices in which to make Adsense fit into your current site or blog template.

The great thing about using AdSense is that anyone can do it, and there are people out there today who are making a substantial living with it.

That said, there are some obvious negative aspects to advertising with AdSense.  First of all, you have very little control of the type of ads that are displayed on your site. What I mean by this is that your Adsense Ads can be a bunch of low paying ads, meaning that you get next to nothing per click. There are many bloggers who’ve attempted to make money online only to give up in frustration when months or years of their lives have been consumed with nothing to show for it. Another aspect to Adsense that you need to consider is what’s called “click fraud”, that means someone would produce artificial clicks on your page.  And it’s not necessarily just you who’s making those artificial clicks,  it could be your competition in to get your Adsense account closed.  Another downside to using Google Adsense is that your income is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate, sometimes greatly, from month to month.  If you are relying on your Google check to pay your bills, you may be in for a shock when your checks are not enough to cover them.
