Does everyone on this site get the same ads?

Postby Kristatos » Tue Apr 08, 2008 8:30 pm

Every time I come to this site, the forum main page is dominated by an ad for the University of Phoenix, featuring a rather attractive (if somewhat vacant-looking) young woman. I was wondering whether the ad is the same for everyone, or whether people in the UK get a different ad. Not that it's particularly important, I was just curious.

I get aussie and american ads.
Both of which are annoying. But not as in your face as some sites thankfully.

I don't mind too much either. It helps keep this site free, and she is quite cute.

I get James Bond Insurance, Daniel Craig insurance; James Bond Loans....etc etc!

Google adsense is a great way to cover costs.

I'm fed up with the mobile phone blue banner ad - the one with Daniel Craig on it!

This Google ad made me laugh - it's got an apt website name: getlippy.com/DanielCraig

:lol:

I always get the Libertas ads. Libertas are a political party who are standing in the European Parliament elections in a few weeks. They are critical of the EU.
