    Nope. It's the same with EVERY advertiser... you cannot ask your visitors to click your adverts.

    eg; You wouldn't like it if you owned a small printer cartidge company and someone told customers to take your cartridges.

    You are correct. It is not ok to ask your visitors to click on your ads, (e.g., "please click here").

    However, promotional labels are ok, (e.g., "My Favorite Products/Deals")

    I've seen people list:

    "Check out these great deals"

    Is that against the Chitika TOS?

    I don't think it is ok to ask for clicking... you might get banned!

    That's just "Please click here" paraphrased.

    I vote this as the stupidest thread of the year.
    I hope you aren't the one that makes everyone else's CPC go way down.

    I hope you aren't referring to me. I merely inquired as to what is acceptable under the Chitika guidelines. The Chitika rep said that we are allowed promotional labels, but he never specified a definitive line.
