Comments on: Chitika eMiniMalls - Are They Effective? http://www.dansherman.com/2005/10/chitika-eminmalls-are-they-effective.html If you aint remarkable, why? This blog is my outlet. I've got too many ideas and not enough time to do them all. Hopefully you can take one of my ideas and create value where none existed before. Whatever your interest... marketing, biz opps, making money from home, promotion, business ideas, concepts, over-the-top antics, business opportunities... you'll find it all right here.

Wordpress is hell bent on making sure you can't insert javascript into the actual posts. I've tried some plugins that allow you to theoretically do this, but they screwed the blog up in the process. But Chitika is only really good for product oriented sites, as I'm told. My site isn't product oriented. So, no great loss. Thanks, Dan I gave up on it, actually.

I got it on my blog on the side panel. Of course I don't use word press for that but I'd think it'd be no harder than inserting Adsense... both are java script. CH Did you get Chitika working yet?

Now I'm thinking - why does it have to be that way. I'll see if I can find a solution to that. It's my experience that Chitika eminimalls seem ideal for hard products. If you do a search for home loans and such there is nothing there yet. Point being - Chitika may not be good for every blog. Maybe intuitively you've realised that adsense is a better option for you. But I enjoyed reading your post since many others, as you have pointed out, myself among them, seem to be raving about Chitika eminimalls. Respectfully, Graeme Sprigge My ads also do the chitika flashdance - I never realised it was a problem until you brought it up. Now I’m thinking - why does it have to be that way.

I’ll see if I can find a solution to that.

I just had a lot of troubles with just running the silly thing to begin with, using Wordpress. Wordpress doesn't allow you to post code in a blog post. There are plugins that enable you to do this, but it was cumbersome. I just gave up. Sorry about the screening device. I went to great lengths to prevent the assinine comment spam. I don't want to fiddle with it now. Still waiting for my sample in the mail, Mr. Upline! :-) Hi Chuck,

You have to insert an extra line of code in the Chitika FAQ to keep Google happy. Chuck PS Your post screening device is awfully hard to read even by us non computers. Dan,
