An eMiniMall

This month, Chitika is giving participating brands 500 free clicks for a promotion called the Blogtober Challenge, an attempt to encourage advertisers to test out a new service.

The company is promoting an ad product called the eMiniMall, which allows users to learn more about advertised items, and also features an option to purchase from within the ad.

The eMiniMall is targeted at bloggers, as blogs, while popular, can be the most difficult type of web property to monetize. The service can also be embedded into Facebook profiles.
