  • Chikita eMiniMalls Advertising For Sites & Blogs

    For those of you that have blogs or websites and are looking to earn a little extra money on top of google adsense revenue, you may want to check out <a href="https://chitika.com/mm_overview.php?refid=savingadvice">Chikita eMiniMalls</a>. Nate and I have been using them on the site to compliment adsense - they are at the top of the forums when you are not signed into your account (if you are signed in, you can't see them). This is an area that we wanted to advertise, but had little luck in the past. We put adsense there to begin, but with all the other adsense we already had, it was just too much. We tried some other companies for awhile and they performed miserably. We placed the eMiniMalls in and have been pleasantly surprised at the return.

    From what I've been reading from others that have been using them, they are especially effective if you write about products as the ads are more product based. For example, if you have a site that is about ipods, these would work extremely well. Our site isn't product based, but it's still performing well, so I can only imagine if you had a product specific blog or site. Here is an example of what the ads look like:

    <center><script type="text/javascript"><!--ch_client = "savingadvice";
    ch_width = 180;ch_height = 150;ch_non_contextual = 1;var ch_queries = new Array("money", "wall strret journal", "digital cameras", "ipod mini", "sony playstation", "dell laptop");var ch_selected=Math.floor((Math.random()*ch_queries.l ength));ch_query = ch_queries[ch_selected];//--></script><script src="http://scripts.chitika.net/eminimalls/mm.js" type="text/javascript"></script></center>

    Because the look is different, they can compliment your current ads without making you site look too over-run by them.

    The default code for the <a href="https://chitika.com/mm_overview.php?refid=savingadvice">eMiniMalls ads</a> are compliant with google adsense terms. The default has preset terms such as "ipod" - "digital camera" and "dell laptop" in the code, but you can change these key words to anything you want for your site to make them more relevant.

    They are certainly worth a try. They are already a permanent part of our advertising and will likely be expanded as opportunity arises. If you have any questions about them, feel free to leave them here.
