New ads within posts
« on: January 18, 2009, 07:33:53 PM »
Hey guys, I've decided to place advertisements within the posts.  The reason for this is that over the last couple of months the ad revenue of this site has dropped dramatically.  Seeing that the ad revenue is what keeps this site running I need to get it back up to where it was. 

I'm sorry if this is annoying, but I'm not sure what else I can do.

I understand  but when it happened  I thought my machine had gotten a virus.  I think I speak for the Chrome Dome Nation, when I say that we know this isn't a great income generator for you and that what you do is within the requirements of economic short hair, really short hair, requirements.

Thanks for understanding!

I've had issues with the code the last couple of days and was finally able to get it resolved today.  Sorry for any confusion at first.

We'll learn to live with it.  Small price to pay to keep the site running.   ;)

They don't seem the least bit intrusive to me and a banner is always better than pop up windows.

At first, I thought my computer wasnt loading the pages properly or there was a virus.  Its a little off putting, maybe, but I'm sure we can learn to live with it.  Was surprised to see one promoting hair replacement solutions with £600 discount though!  In fact, most of the sponsered by google ads in UK are for hair regaining products!! :x!

I try to filter those ads out, but since I'm not in the UK, it's much harder for me to filter the UK ads.  To help me out, send link to the company they are promoting and I can filter it with that.

Thanks!

Whatever it takes to keep this great site running is fine. Once you get used to them it's not a problem.
Thanks again, Tyler.     O0

Tyler,

Maybe there could be coupon ads for HeadBlade or BaldGuyz products that we could print up and get discounts at our local stores...at least here in the USA?
