mcliu Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Is there a way to turn off the full page mobile ad? That’s the one that’s quite annoying, I think everything else is pretty fair game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsx5200 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Speaking for myself. Parsad, I thank you for sponsoring this board to share valuable ideas and information. Whatever you need to do to keep the site operation is probably okay with me, as my tolerance for noise is fairly high and the signal level is sufficiently high enough to keep me coming back. Maybe there are other high roller out there that where every second lost can mean the difference of a few million lost. I find that long term investing is fairly tolerant in regards to timing and think that if we can weed out short term thinkers by adding more ads, I’d welcome that. Again, thanks for keeping this site operational. From rolling my own sites, I know this stuff is not cheap, time and resource wise and I hope others can appreciate that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamic Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I concur, 4thed. This site is a great resource and I greatly appreciate Parsad's efforts over a seriously long time. I quickly learned how to navigate round the mobile version, which does seem more ad-heavy than desktop, and to ignore all the google ads for products I've already bought! I had been a little absent around the time of the vote and the change of domain name, and I had actually thought I'd like to contribute financially to the site now I can afford it, but I'm at least happy to see ad revenue providing some recompense to Parsad for keeping it running and all the work migrating over to a generally more usable platform.

mcliu Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 It's also possible that having fewer ads & better optimized ads might generate more revenue through more users & engagement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimization is an individual responsibility. Ads are dynamically generated based on site content and your browsing habits (and possibly conversations while an internet connected microphone is present). OTOH, affiliate banners, which I don't see here, are a more effective method of monetization. They can also provide more targeted and useful services to site visitors. If a publisher (Parsad + users = auto-generated content), produces a significant percentage of activity for an affiliate program he would become a super-affiliate. This leads to more opportunities and better terms with affiliate managers. PPC and PPI generates chump change in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorpRaider Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Probably a pain in the ass, but if not, I propose you charge a pretty material fee to those who only lurk and never post or reply to anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
