Today, I got my rejection notice from Chitika. No reason was given. I sent them an email asking if there was a reason. They haven't replied. I thought this was really weird and worth posting about. Any ideas? I keep hearing about very small blogs with little traffic getting accepted. My blogs include Besting Adwords (http://www.kbcafe.com/adwords/), which is ranked #55 by Feedster (http://top500.feedster.com/) and The RSS Blog (http://www.kbcafe.com/rss/) ranked #224 by BlogPulse (http://www.blogpulse.com/profile?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kbcafe.com%2Frss).

That is weird. I just got accepted (not a blog) for my web directory last night - which I fully expected to get rejected. But, I figured I would give it a try...
Very odd about your blog being rejected!

What do you expect when your blog is about Adsense? :eek:

Well, I haven't heard back from them, but I hardly doubt they'd penalize me for that. Wouldn't they want to encourage me to start a Besting Chitika blog?

You should write that in commnets/description box when you apply again.
How they know that?

Good idea Vlada. I just assumed they'd know.

Ever since I saw this thread, I been singing: "I'm chiquita banana and I'm hear to say..." it drives me mad that I don't know the rest of the song :(.

I have also been rejected same way - no reason given. The site I have signed up was my lyrics site. They've lost, lol :D

Update: The CEO of Chitika apologized for the goof up (http://www.kbcafe.com/adwords/?guid=20051008063927) and they sent me an acceptance. I'm in!
