Title: Oh man, ads!
Post by: General_Failure on March 05, 2013, 01:35:28 AM
So after nearly 12 years, I've gotten around to putting up an ad that isn't fake and on the front page or a text link paid for ahead of time. I figure maybe this place should start helping pay for itself again. The ads won't show up on the mobile version.

great...first ad I see....a Maryland  contractor, just as I'm trying to make myself legit.

Once I've got my license and formed my company, I think I'm gonna have to outbid those fargers for the space

what are you paying them to publish it here?  I'll take less.

Ha...and now the ads are different, but still for concrete services. 

I don't think the ad company has very smart algorithms.

How much do you get paid for us to click?

Least intrusive ad banner ever. If it weren't for the announcement, it might have been a year before I noticed it.

Any chance you can get Christian Mingle and J Date to advertise here?

15 second fullscreen Zoosk ad every time you log in is the next step.

No idea. but it made nearly two bucks so far today. I really should have done this years ago.

Too bad the ads don't open in a new tab.

Do you get paid by the click? If so, I'll click around.

I've clicked around a few times.  Found a company that will help clean out a hoarder's house, which is actually something we may need in order to get access to replace the windows in a house we're doing in a month or so.

The first time I saw this thread title I thought it read "Oh man, aids!"

My sister and her husband have a company that does that sort of thing. The pay is shtein, but they make up some of the difference in loot and scrap metal.
