Ads

[JR 137]

What is it with the ads at the top of the website lately? Or am I the only one getting them...

Date Single Moms
Meet Asian Women
Meet Your 40+ Match

And many more. It used to be MA ads, now they’re just trying to get me to cheat on my wife

 

[pdg]

I get those, and ma ads, and utility suppliers, and surveys.

But most worryingly...



Just so wrong on so many levels...

To a certain extent it is. But remember sex sells, I should say out-sells. Which do you think pays the most?

I get those too and I do not visit any sites that would make google think I wanted advertisements like that. So I am more inclined to it is something the forum owners let in for the revenue; I don't get them on the other forum site I most frequent.

This.

I get (badly) targeted ads here and other places - usually related to stuff I've either recently bought or researched.

There's ads related to site content too, whether I've got 'history' or not.

This is the only place I get all the dating ads...

Add Date Local Moms to my list, as that’s the one here as I’m typing this.

I guess they think I have a MILF fetish. I guess there’s worse things...

I currently have "explore Japanese women" - I didn't think they were usually big enough to warrant an expedition.

Still, nicer picture than the one I posted above

I have a vita cost healthy living site advertised on mine.

Just saying...:

I will not be corrupted.....I am a oak.

I don't get any ads...but then I run Ad Blocker Plus. Works great.

 

[Buka]

I get them on my phone, but not on my laptop. I have no idea why. Now I'm curious to see what they're advertising.

 

[granfire]

I am not paying attention...can't afford to.
But generally speaking, the ads correlate either to the topic, or to your own search and browse history....

I should not have a dating site there though....but then again, I am glad it's not heavy on the naked men....

Well, I just had an ad for a handheld espresso machine.

Seeing as I've conducted no searches for that (or overweight firemen) I'm disinclined to believe it's history linked

Do you share a google account with someone who might be searching “overweight firemen drinking coffee?”

 

[CB Jones]

New ad is for a site with info on my surname.

Just saying

No, most certainly not!

(Must be a glitch in that incognito browsing thing )

Actually with your name?

If it's just the generic version, I've had that - and "search birth records".

And travel ads.

The only ones I can form any link to are energy suppliers (I did some searching a few months back) and welding/machining supplies (always looking at that sort of thing).

I get that one too, hate to tell you but they are telling us we are too old for 20 something tinder hookups and we should be focused on middle age to elderly women.
