Do the ads count as content? Are they read differently from other content?

I wonder if the ads count as content? And, would an ad or parts of it come up in a search engine search as part of the site it's on?
Just thinking out loud but with enough ads and the rotation giving fresh text it could make a difference...but how?
Yes...I'm new-ish.

 

Ads won't count as content and won't show in search engines. They display on your site but are served from a different server. If you look at your page's source code you will see the ads show only as a link.

 

ads are also mostly displayed in js, which isnt picked up by search engines

 

Well I'm glad somebody knows.
Trying to read blog source code made me edgy and irritable but I did see that the ads are js but other than that just the id #'s, ad format, etc.,.
Now I'm wondering why engines don't pick it up.

Thanks.
