    Ciao is currently bringing in excellent results - it's been pretty solid for the last two weeks.

    You can Register here, luckily I received an e-mail for the Beta and had a look at it - got a free month 'trial' period, with only a few select products on it. Shame the Beta has obviously passed, not sure on what the listing prices will be at the end of the month though.

    hmmm if its not free then its not in the same ball park as base. Although it is better structured and probably gives better results i have not been able to find any pricing without signing up for someone to call me, thats all i need is another bloody salesman calling me evey 5 minutes :rolleyes:

    We've been with Ciao for some time, the CPC we have is 25p (exc VAT), which is similar to other shopping portals we use, and although not free, is somewhat cheaper than Adwords.

    The interface itself seems to be a bit confused:

    http://www.ciao.co.uk/Zack_Foccio_Wall_Soap_Dispenser__7074694

    Shows a range of prices for our Foccio soap dispenser, but the two cheap items are actually another product:rolleyes:

    the biggest question is what are your returns on these clicks, 25p is fine but if i get 100 clicks and 1 conversion then its worse than adwords IMHO

    We haven't tracked Ciao click throughs as it has been tiny up until now, but clearly we will have to do this.
