A discussion of earning with the Best Affiliate Programs, SEO, Wordpress Blogging and General Motivational Ideas for Internet Publishers and Affiliate Marketers.

In the past I’ve blogged about Using Chitika Premium and Adsense to Create Multiple Revenue Streams and how effective it is to use Google Adsense as the alternate to Chitika Premium. For anyone else who has been exercising this strategy, there’s still no issues with combining the two on a page, it’s just once again - Google in all their inimitable wisdom - has decided to make changes to the way Adsense units are served, once again causing webmasters unnecessary work. Here’s the update from Chitika in case you haven’t seen it…

We are sending you this email because it looks like you are using AdSense as an alternate ad in at least one of your Chitika ads.

Because of a change that Google made to how AdSense is served, you will need to make a quick change to your alternate ad setup to ensure that it will display correctly.

HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE SURE YOUR ADSENSE ALTERNATE AD SERVES CORRECTLY:

1. Open the .HTML file that contains your AdSense code with Notepad or any other text editor.
2. Place <html><head></head><body> before your AdSense code and </body></html> after the code - for example:
<html><head></head><body>
<!–ADSENSE CODE GOES HERE –>
</body></html>

This will ensure that your AdSense alternate URL will display properly. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us directly, leave a comment on our blog post about this, or post in our forums.

Best Regards,
The Chitika Team

If you’re still holding out on mixing Adsense with Chitika and you’re watching your Adsense eCPM go down faster than the Titanic, click the Chitika banner below and read the article I linked to at the beginning of this post and try a benchmark test for yourself.

Darn Google. I just finished setting up my ads like you recommended on 20+ sites :-(

Do you have experience with PapperjamAds or ClickBank HopAds? I switched from Google Adsense to these on a couple of sites to see how it would go.

Are there any details on what changed or how they developed this work around? If it’s causing unnecessary work, I’m interested to hear why the change was made!
