Posted: August 23, 2016

The Exciterewards.com site hosts an unreliable search service, and this is why Web filters like Sucuri and Websense do not recommend visiting Exciterewards.com. Riskware such as Offers4U endorses the Exciterewards.com site, and you may see Exciterewards.com loaded in your browser after installing a freeware bundle. The Exciterewards.com portal may be set as your homepage, new tab page, and preferred search aggregator by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUA). Web surfers that are willing to explore what Exciterewards.com has to offer may be surprised unpleasantly.

The Exciterewards.com may appear as a welcoming search service with a relatively easy-to-use panel. However, the Exciterewards.com site is not coded correctly and will not bring up results like videos, news, and images unless they fit a pool of predefined keywords. Analysis revealed that the Exciterewards.com portal is designed to serve ads based on the user's input and will show sponsored search results if your keywords match offers from merchants. Web surfers will not be able to load results other than sponsored resources and exclusive offers from less-reputable online stores. You may think that the Exciterewards.com portal is a search engine, but it acts as a cross-reference tool to bring traders and potential buyers closer. For example, if you search for 'weather' on Exciterewards.com you will be provided with discounts on clothing on the top of the search results. Switching to the Images, Videos, and News tabs will show an error message saying 'We apologize for the inconvenience, but we weren't able to find results for this query.'

You may want to take advantage of better search services like Google and Yahoo!, instead of using Exciterewards.com. PC users that notice their browser loading Exciterewards.com upon start may need to review plug-ins and add-ons recently installed in their Internet client. You can use a trusted anti-spyware product to delete apps linked to Exciterewards.com that may prevent you from setting up a new default search provider.
