Clicking on Ads - Do you do it?

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by Tesseract, Sep 12, 2008.

    How often would you click on an ad on a website, where the content of the ad was of interest to you?

    I find I click on an ad about 1-2 a week if there is something interesting, however I find I'm constantly shown the same ad multiple times, so sites need to have a variety of ads in an ad space, rather than the same ad all the time.

    Thoughts?

    I have to admit I do it rarely. Maybe 1 out of 200.

    I will click on them if I'm visiting a site and the ad is something i'm looking for. Why not? Usually companies who invest money in Adsense have invested money in their products and usually have good products/services.

    I usually click on ads related to my target niche. I think that site is a trusted site and i will find ways to get links from that site.

    Very very rarely.

    If i find a site useful, i mainly click a link just to support them :)

    But since that usally happens very rarely.. i might click say once out of 1000?

    [Clarification] Not do you click on your own ads, if you click on other people's ads when your visiting their sites.[/Clarification]

    The reason I ask this is because a lot of what we webmasters do is try to make money from people by having them click on our ads, yet when we think about it, how often do we do this ourselves?

    Just an interesting thought...
