Political ads on automotive website
Ok, Everybody has got their views in this matter. My particular rant :rant: is that we now have Obama ads on an automotive website. :badidea: :2232censored:
ITS STILL 1 YEAR AND 3 MONTHS AWAY FROM ANY ELECTION AND NOW WERE GETTING THE ADS SHOVED DOWN OUR THROAT AGAIN? IT WAS ONLY A VEEEERRRRYY SHORT TIME AGO THE LAST BARRAGE ENDED. DO WE REALLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH THESE ADS HERE? :mad: I know ads pay the bills, so I'm not completely ignorant to the fiscal side of the argument, but really, whether I like Obama or not, or choose to support a Republican candidate, CAN'T WE HAVE AN AREA WHERE THE BS STINK DOESN'T PERMEATE INTO OUR "SAFE ZONE" of recreation? I don't know about you but the Vette is a constant good thing, and I'm a little ticked that now we have to deal with BS ads while discussing our love in life. We can't even go to a professional game (where we used to get away from commercials and only see print billboards) without watching real commercials on the Jumbo-tron.:banghead: :banghead: Really,,, this commercial age is waaaaaaay overboard. Please Rich, limit ads on here to things related to automotive goods or services like what I can see in the sidebar as I type this (Flash detailing, Antivenom, PPT Custom tuning etc). P.S. I do see a vote icon in the left sidebar , however before this is thrown into my face it's not a governmental election, it's simply a novelty for this website to be chosen as #1 on the Vette sites list....:rolleyes: Just my :twocents: |

Actually those Google ads are SUPPOSED to be context sensitive and place ads that are relevant to keywords on the site. I suspect the politicians pay big bucks to get their ads bumped to the top of the food chain, as they have to pay each and every time someone clicks on their ad. The higher they want that ad to be in priority, the more they have to pay.
So I guess the people pulling the strings just used blanket coverage with a high bid on placement. Looks like they have money to burn on this campaign.... |
Well one thing about this post, I almost forgot to vote today.
Thanks for the reminder |

They must have picked up on the A-hole comment somewhere(generic for politician):rofl1: Quote:
Could you imagine? If everyone from all the vette related sites clicked on the site oh Idon't know, lets say, 100 times....:eek: :eek: Ya think we could bankrupt the candidates? Sure worth a try....oops, almost forgot. Did Billery and Hill already do the BK thing?:rofl1: |
I removed the image ads and replaced them with text ads. I think they work a little better as being more relevant to the context of this site. At least I hope so.....
