Advertisement are essential for businesses and companies. They usually have some kind of catch to them.

I only hate the crappy commercials; otherwise, it's just fine.

They also pay million of dollars just to air those commercials lol.
A commercial on Prime Time is costly.

We'll get rid of the ads on this site if any one wants to donate $450 every month Wink

How much do you get per add here?
Google is one of the most common adds i've seen elsewhere. You don't seem to have much or any of those.

Advertisement revenue really makes the world go round.

If there were no ads, you wouldn't have trailers. If there were no trailers, you wouldn't get pumped for a new release. If I had a great product, you'd never know unless my ad started turning people on to it to turn you on to it.

If my company didn't buy ad space, they might not be able to pay me to work using the money from new clients the interest drew. If advertising didn't work, companies would not spend thousands to millions of dollars on it.

My company is so large, we have to advertise our own internal websites to get employees and managers turned on to the product.

So, just remember: Click an annoying website ad; help feed a family.

I don't mind ads. Some ads are very informative and can be useful in the future as a reference.

I agree with gretton that it really is a source of revenue. If not, this community will disappear due to funding difficulties Very Happy

That is why I am quite thnkful for the ads too for other reasons Laughing

Yeah, but the annoying adds are the pop up ones. I don't mind the banners, but if a site spams me with pop ups, they won't be expecting my return.

i agree with 1ce. popups suck.
but i do like clothing ads and anime ads like that, sometimes theyre useful if your looking for something.

The attractive ads are the ones that catch the big fish.
