You Voted: Winners of PS3, $400 in placement contest

October 2nd, 2009
14 comments

This year we decided to have YOU, our readers vote for which AdSense + Chitika ad placement was best integrated together in our annual AdSense + Chitika placement contest.

After hundreds of submissions, Chitika’s Special Projects Team narrowed it down to 8 finalists -  you can see them here.

Our Grand Prize Winner of a Playstation 3 Slim + NFL Madden 2010 is:

Tim Carter, AskTheBuilder.com

We really liked Tim’s integration of AdSense at the top, Chitika Premium in the right hand sidebar and Premium at the bottom of his articles. While sometimes the sidebars are not always successful ad placements, Tim made it work to his advantage- Great job Tim!

And our 2 runners up who will receive $200 each are:

Kenneth Barbalace, EnvironmentalChemistry.com
Anton Amoto, AntonAmoto.com

Ken perfectly customized his AdSense and Premium ad units throughout his site. With a Premium ad unit at the top as well as in the sidebar and AdSense complementing nicely above his comments.

Anton used an AdSense square above his titles and a Premium Mega Unit below them. The links were all customized as well making for a nice sleek integration.

Congratulations to all the finalists and winners! And a big thank you to all who participated. Be on the look out for our next contest!

    I would like to say thanks to all readers who voted and giving support to my site even my target market is outside the United States. I have doubts that Chitika will leverage its market to Asia, Europe, and Middle East. I’m looking forward to it. Keep it up!

    this makes a good sample of nice integration. Great sites win with great integration. Just too bad that seo is so necessary those days to get found . All the best small guys with graet content are not reward for very informational content work not optimized. search engine just get seo optimized one made for ppc and cpa :(
