Title: Adverts ...
Post by: Admin aka Dan on April 03, 2004, 19:48:29
Hi All,

As you may (or may not) have noticed, I have placed some text adverts at the bottom of the page - I hope they do not slow the site down, and are not to prominent.

These are pay per click - which means that if you spot something which interests you and click on the advert to go to the site, I get a small fee.

So if you see something which interests you, please click through.

Cheers

Dan

I have clicked on a  couple of the sites Dan but unfortunately did not buy anything.  I thought that you would not get your fee - I'm so glad to know now that I contributed.  Will continue 'clicking' away ;D

HeHe - it's one of the funnier ones!  I presume somebody must be gullible enough to believe their "before" and "one week after" pictures :) :) :)

All best, Gavin

Naaaaa - I'm getting one!  If it works on hair, think of what it'll do for the sunflowers!

On second thoughts, might be better getting one for everybody else growing sunflowers!  ;D ;D

There's an even better one come up now

A lot more seriously this time around.

QuoteSo if you see something which interests you, please click through.

No problem for the ads along the bottom of the page, but take care with the ones at the top - yes, there's a space age snake oil sales pitch, just a good giggle.  

But three of this afternoon's ads were ... dubious?   IMHO!

Top UK Casino Reviews - appears to be lots of online "games", claiming (?) famous London names, run by a company or companies registered in the Netherlands Antilles.  Hmmmm.

And the "Plan to be a millionaire", and "Haveagreatfuture.net" ones appear to be part of a scam, which involves setting up your own website?  A Google search on "60 minute money" = 12,600 results, with some "interesting" sponsored ads.    And a link to http://www.papersourceonline.com/discus/messages/1649/8821.html?1078045453 (http://www.papersourceonline.com/discus/messages/1649/8821.html?1078045453) .  Pyramid selling?  Harvesting e-mail addresses for spam?  Sales of dubious herbal diet pills?  Haven't a clue.

Take care?   ;)

All best, Gavin

The 'Inkjet Now' link was a good one for me, Dan. I got curious and had a look.  Found Inkjet cartriges at over half the price of our cheapest local supplier, so filled me boots so to speak.

If it helped you as well then great!

Thanks  :)
