    Thank you for your online submission. We have reviewed your website: xxxxxxxxxx

    Unlike traditional banner and text-based advertising programs our merchandising-based Chitika | eMiniMalls program typically works best with established sites that contain exclusive authoritative content.

    Based on past experience we found that our eMiniMalls program works best with (but not limited to) websites that have:
    - significant traffic, preferably more than 10,000 impressions per month
    - rich in content that relates to product merchandising, i.e., product reviews, product-centric discussions etc.
    - family friendly content in English
    - target audiences from US, Canada, UK, France, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, Italy, Netherlands, and Spain. As we expand our merchant base we will be able to cater to traffic from other regions as well in the future.

    Also, in order to properly determine the effectiveness that our Chitika | eMiniMalls will have when placed on a particular site we need to see all content. Therefore, we cannot accept sites that are new or under construction.

    (***PLEASE NOTE*** all of the above stated reasons may or may not pertain to your website. The above list summarizes the set of representative factors that are taken into consideration during the review process.)

    In an effort to bring value to our publishers, we carefully consider each submission. During our review process we have determined that Chitika | eMiniMalls might not be a good match for your website.

    We wish you the best of luck in monetizing your website, and thank you again for your interest in Chitika | eMiniMalls.

    Regards,
    Chitika Customer Service

    There’s no reason to be embarrassed, I’ve been declined by them on several occasions. What is unfortunate is that once a website has been reviewed and turned down their system will automatically decline any future requests for inclusion from the same URL.

    I understand that Chitika is important to you but there are dozens of ways to monetize your site. Have you tried offersquest?



    P.S.
    I understand that the URL you listed was not meant to be an actual live link but I just wanted to let you know that it is a live link, to a pornographic website.



    Bets wishes,
    Kimmy
