Chitika Tips for Forums, #1

Slim Down the Width of your Forum
How wide is your forum? Is it set to 100%? You’ll most likely see an increase by using a pixel width to limit how large your forum stretches.
759px wide is a good length. This makes larger posts look more column-like and easier to read. As well your ads mesh in to the forum, as the widths are similar.
Don’t border your Chitika eMiniMalls
This is dependant on your site design though, but most forums have a border around the limits of each post. It’s better to set the entire eMiniMall to the your background color, be it white or whatever your forum background color is.
Match, Match, Match
Make sure the text is the same color as the rest of your posts. Or make it the same color as your links. It’s up to you, but they both work well.
Use Lots of Keywords
Make sure you use a long list of keywords to make sure that a visit will see different products each visit. 35 is a good amount.
