Internet Ads...

Does anyone actually click them? Like, how many of you are actually interested in an ad enough to click on it?
I can't say that I have ever intentionally clicked on an ad because I was interested...

Has anyone actually bought some Gatsby or a windsheild wonder? hahaha

Yes I have click ads because I was interested.
No I have not bought anything

I know plenty of people that use Gatsby products and love them.

I only click an ad if it's a local sponsor and it is something I am interested (but rarely). All the google shit ads I never click unless it's by accident.

I click on google ads occasionally, but not that often on RS; maybe it's harder for google to present accurate, relavent ads on a forum vs when you're searching for something.

i havent tried gatsby, i barely have any hair as is to go thru a bottle of shampoo

i did order a couple of those windshield wonders, just because i was curious, got them like a few weeks ago. have yet to try them.

havent clicked on the nws ads. though it has made me wonder what sort of attachment for the recipricating saws are ppl freakin buying?!

i still dont have the urge to learn hebrew though nor meet singles on gothscene.

none are ever revelant to my interests, most are junk. I did click on one that claimed free samples of Molson Canadian on FB thinking it was actually from Molson but it was junk too.

most of google ads are out of our control.

basically they scan what the title or what keywords are in the thread, and based on that, they produce the appropriate ad associated to it.

^ I recall reading an article someone posted on here about a certain airlines crash stats or something, and the google ads were about booking flights with that airlines

well, does just clicking on these ads (just to look/use but not to buy) generate revenue for RS that will keep it free for all of us? if so, then it only takes a few seconds of your time to contribute...

(hm, this goth dating site is "interesting". i'm sure i've seen that tow hook in her nose on a civic before)
