Service Description
InterCLICK is a performance based affiliate network founded in 2004 by Michael Katz. The network carries more than 300 advertisers which gives publishers many choices in offer selection. The company is also publicly traded and the company is known to reach 130 unique million visitors a month, making it attractive for advertisers looking to expand their campaigns.
Detailed Overview
InterCLICK is a network that has been around for some time. They started out with a few ad formats but now offer a wide variety of ads that publishers can run from skyscrapers, overlay ads, and banners. The company is known for carrying many advertisers so once you log in to the site, you will see a good variety of offers to run.
One of the ad formats that this network is known for is interstitials. This is when visitors have click through to another page and view a full page ad for 10 seconds to go to the next page. Many publishers have reported that this type of ad format has been doing really well for them and the earnings for this type of ad are very high.
The support for the network is solid. If you have any problems getting set up or need some advice on what to run on your site, you can contact the ad managers and get a prompt reply. The company pays out once you reach $30 and send out payments once a month. But there seems to be some problems.
There are reports that the affiliates have not been paid their full commissions and there are accounting errors that are affecting the payouts. The company also had some big delays in paying out their publishers. Judging by the company’s positive track record, it is likely that this is a temporary problem and they are not purposely trying to cheat their publishers.
Reputation
In conclusion, InterCLICK is definitely a network that you should try. The interstitial ad format has been really doing well with many affiliates and this is something that you should try if you have a big content site that attracts many visitors. The only thing that really tarnishes the reputation for this company is the complaints from publishers with payment problems.
It’s one thing if there are a few complaints, but many publishers are coming forward with some negative accusations. I recommend you try out similar networks in the meantime until the whole thing is cleared up. The last thing you want to do is get caught up in the accounting and payment problems the company has been having.

Decent earnings
I joined interclick as a publisher, at first I could not muster enough traffic but after a few weeks I was able to pick upon my traffic. That was when I was making some money, weekly I was pulling in about $15-$30 which I think was not much, but any way it was decent. Problems started when I requested a payout, they do not seem to pay on time. But I did get my money eventually after a week.

Interclick is great
I too signed up as a publisher for the website. I was looking forward to making some money for my website. But after some time I realized that it was not good at all. When I realized the pay, I soon regretted my mistake. The pros are that you actually make some money for basically putting some ads on your website which was easy. But the cons are that the pay is so little that it's close to pathetic. I would only recommend this website for people that want to make PENNIES a day and are not serious about getting REAL money.

Use it as advertising, not to make money
I actually signed up for both. I did not make a lot of money with this, even though there was quite a bit too choose from. It does take a long time to credit, and it was just too long for me. I do use it for advertising though. The ad packages are inexpensive, and you do get quality results with it. What I mean by that is you get quality traffic of visitors that are actually interested in your product, and are not just going to your website to earn credits. If you have a website that does need visitors, I would recommend this site for advertising. As a publisher, it will take you a long time to get the minimum and then they do take quite a long time to pay you.

Great for advertisers, not so much for publishers
I have been with Interclick for several months now. I first tried it as a publisher. I was not pleased at all. I didn't make hardly anything, and when I did they took forever to pay me. However using it for advertising has been great. It is very cheap and easy to use. I am getting a ton of hits from it.
It does work for publishers. Not as well as I would like, but it does better than most. I would recommend this more for advertising though. I have never really had any problems with them. So I would say give it a try.

I joined InterCLICK as a Publisher
I joined InterCLICK as a Publisher and I am very pleased. As soon as I joined I was happy to see that I had a lot of offers to choose from. This makes it possible for publishers to get relevant ads on their websites. I get my payment as soon as I earn 30$. This is very easy to achieve because I have a decent amount of traffic. I can earn between 60$ and 100$ a month. My only complaint is that sometimes they delay with paying. Apart from this, I think it’s an easy way to make some extra money. The support is great. Every time I have a question they are very prompt in answering.
