There has been this thing on my mind for a while. It’s based on the fact that I’m big on promoting website and whatnot, maybe even my own website 
.. the thing is, advertising has been getting to me, and not in the normal way.
You’ll notice there is no advertising on this site, no google ads not a stitch! I have played with it in the passed, tried the google ads and earned my $0.00000006c of advertising revenue, and y’know what .. it’s not worth it. There are better things I could be doing with the website real estate ; or at least I feel like I’m “making a stand” or been called to some higher calling of blogging by not displaying adverts.
Nah that’s rubbish, I just don’t fancy it, and the amount that I get in return is just not worth it.
But here’s the kicker; it seems there is a correlation between the success of a website and the amount of adverts displayed.
Do you rate the success of a website based on the number of eye popping website graffiti bollocks? If I plaster crap all over my blog will I somehow looks more “real”? and if this is so, hasn’t advertising and website come far? it’s depressing to think that what I suspect might be true.
