Chitika Linx - Beta In Text Advertising
2007-06-08 19:05:00
Chitika have today added another new ad unit to their growing line of options for publishers - this one is called Chitika Linx .It?s still in beta and I?m not one of the lucky few to be invited to test it - but from the overview page it looks very similar to other in text advertising options like Amazon?s Context Links system, Kontera?s ContentLink product and Intellitxt (and others).All of these systems will look at your content for keywords that they can match to an advertisment. They then make those words links (usually with some different kind of formatting so that readers are aware that they are different - in the case of Linx a double underline) and then when readers hover the cursor over the link a small popup appears with the ad.In the case of Linx the popup seems to contain an eMiniMall ad unit (as pictured).The ads are CPC (you get paid if someone clicks the ad).Publishers generally have a fairly extreme love or hate for this type of advertising.They do interrupt the readin...

The American Consumer Opinions Panel (ACOP from now onwards!) is actually the very first survey site I found around 2/3 years ago although my membership completely lapsed when I changed ISP and lost my old email addresses. A year ago I re-found them, signed up again under a different username and promptly ended up with $60 in American Express gift cheques on my doormat within 2 months. How or why I ended up with these is anyone's guess because there was nothing to say why in the envelopes(one for each $10 gift cheque) and nothing on the site, but who cares right? lol I wasn't going to argue. Since then I've received more surveys from the site and more $10 gift cheques as a result. Kinda cool seeing how little you actually have to do to receive them so I thought I'd share the site with you...Firstly, forget the name because the site does NOT just cater for an American audience although as it is based there I would assume their focus is more on that region.
