Sidebar Ads.

That divavillage ain't looking so bad. :D

[Omega]

That divavillage ain't looking so bad. :D

LOL, How did I know that it was going to be something to do with one of the ads with chicks

My only suggestion is to either get rid of the ad at the top or to at least make it match the new color scheme. But getting rid of it would be better. =p


But having random banner ads everywhere kinda makes me feel like we're a bigtime webiste. Which is good, because we basically are =p

The whole screen is slightly larger than my 15" monitor at work. So if I'm looking to see the whole screen I have to scroll. I don't like that so much.

What resolution do you have the monitor at? If it doesn't interfere with your work in any way, try setting it to at least 1024x768.

[xmastree]

Sidebar ads? What sidebar ads?

[Airbozo]

FYI; I was laughing at the Swimsuit ads a couple of days ago, but the SO saw the same ad whilst I was browsing the site this last weekend, we both got a good laugh at it since this site is predominately young males. She did click the link and bought a new swimsuit for her trip to Costa Rica...

Hehe Go figure.

[Aero]

lol, the ads are so ironic, its great.

[Xperiment]

[BerticusPryme]

That's a bad exchange rate.

:)

[NightrainSrt4]

The ads were doing good. They were sticking to computer parts or video games or something of the like. Now they are starting to stray with some of the stuff, but I guess when the audience is teen guys, it gets them clicks which makes them money.

Me bets the clicks on girls makes google more than the clicks on wii remote faceplate mod auction clicks lol.

[Airbozo]

My co-worker just clicked on the sidebar ad for Bikini's and got to the diva site. Once he clicked on any of the menu items on the left side, my browser crashed. Just tested this again myself and yep anything past the front page of divasvillage.com crashes firefox.

Not that I was interested or anything, you know...

[XcOM]

we belive you

[Aero]

sounds like a new ATI card

the "oh god x500"

[xRyokenx]

Heh. Oh god the drivers don't work, lol. Nothing against ATi... I might actually buy one of their cards soon.

[Drum Thumper]

Heh. Oh god the drivers don't work, lol. Nothing against ATi... I might actually buy one of their cards soon.

Might not be a bad idea, I read somewhere that ATI was going to offer opensource drivers for the *nix people like yourself.

[xRyokenx]

*nix? I think I'ma use Linux for everything but gaming now. Screw XP and it dying when I surf the web... it's gonna be fun rebooting left and right though, lol.

I got some ad with a retarded fat guy sitting nude in front of a PC... it was online dating or something... they've totally got my interests WRONG. Gah.

[Ichbin]

Those are googleAds right? shouldnt they be "Themed" or topic specific to what the website is?

[Crazy Buddhist]

...I got some ad with a retarded fat guy sitting nude in front of a PC... it was online dating or something... they've totally got my interests WRONG. Gah.

You like PC's. Do you sit in front of them naked? Do you have a g/f? Would you like one? Come on ... out with it .. we can't know how well targeted that ad is until we have the facts laddie, facts ....






/me wanders off to eat some cheese






ps was it this guy?

http://www.vipassanaforum.net/bikes/5.jpg

[xRyokenx]

No, it wasn't that guy... close though, hahaha.

If all works out today I may very well have a girlfriend. For about a week and a half I thought I was bi but I then realized I'm not attracted to guys in that way. I hope this works out today though... I need someone to go do stuff with. And I'll pass on the nearly-nude fat guys.

Seems quite well targeted at the end of the day ;)

ps Good luck. If she asks anything serious just say "I'm so glad I met you".

^^ ok Elliot ;)

and just so i'm On-topic..... i never even look at/notice my sidebar adds until i read this thread...... :D

[xRyokenx]

I miss my AdBlock with Linux... I installed it but it still doesn't work. Oh, and it's always pleasant being in class with some stupid chick in a bikini popping up while surfing this site... whatever.

[slytherock]

I like that creepy gothic 3D I get almost everytime... I can't see what's for BTW, I hope I may be immunized against ads.

Oh, And while I'm writing this, I have one for crazy buddhist:
1000s of Buddhist Matrimonial profile : Find your Jeevansathi NOW! :D

Just after that I saw one of the best ad ever in here:

Dear pop,
I've sent you a ONE YEAR Service plan to ...

In 15 minutes they can fix what takes us an hour to do over the telephone. A real Human PC Expert can Diagnose & fix any problem that you have via Remote Control across the internet.

The service is great It wasn't expensive. I hope you will use it when you cannot get hold of me. I hate it if you get frustrated, because most of your PC Problems are pretty easy to fix. JUST TRY THIS OK?

Of course you can call me for anything. I miss you & I'll see you in a couple of months

Your dear son

I think I'll get a year subscription to my dad :D

[Zephik]

I'm not going to lie, the goth chick in the IMVU ad has some nice tah tah's. LoL

[crenn]

"The love button.

[Drum Thumper]

It's more of a topbar ad, but I just had this:

I know, the adverts suck. But they bring in about $0.00002 which is better than nothing.

Less irritating ads to come folks, worry not.

[Mitternacht]

My banner says God Still Loves Us, and it has a Biohazard sign.
It must think I'm a toxic atheist or Nazi or something.

Perhaps it means the idea that god still loves us is toxic.

[NightrainSrt4]

The ads were spot on for the first few days and then they started to drift off. The ads are good though as they do help bring in some money. My blog that no one looks at brought in enough in the last few days to pay off the howtofixapc.com's hosting for the month. Although thats not saying much because thats only a few bucks but still every little bit helps.

I just wish they were more audience aimed...my ads are starting to stray to. I know I would be more apt to click on something if it was about pc's or modding and not bikini's. Hopefully google will get on the ball with their ads.

Clicking on relevant ones increases the chance of relevant ones being shown.

[Quakken]

Did you notice that the diva-village one (the yellow bathing suit) is PHOTOSHOPPED to give her les... um... cameltoe?

i glanced over at it, and saw a little blurry piece "down there", took it into gimp, and sure enough they took out a little bit down there. Maybe there was too much, maybe they wanted a little less, but it is nowhere near a real model (but seriously... what did I expect? if i looked at the face, there is no doubt there will be some smearing over of blemishes).

yep.

Ya I do. Now that I've learned how the ads work I click on them when I find something that interests me instead of completely avoiding it. Consider it my donation lol. But I will hush now as I am sure google only wants people to click without thought of what really occurs and not people who know what clicking does...

I don't think they're gay ads...just female oriented.

I recently got one saying 'Your Next Boyfriend...'. I nearly spewed Mt. Dew all over my screen.

[Spawn-Inc]

none the less, not something i want to be looking at while i'm on a computer site.

the one i saw said something like "a gay place to workout" something to that effect.

[DaJe]

Pft, not all gay people care about working out.

[NightrainSrt4]

Lmao. Either because crazy B keeps posting, or someone posted stuff about Buddhists, I just saw a Buddhist matrimonial site ad. Just thought that was funny lol. :p

[calumc]
