In my 13 years of online experience, I dont think there was a single time I have ever clicked on a website advertisement/banner. Do they even work? Are people that gullable to click 'Free PS3' and submit their credit card applications only to find out its not legit...and if it is legit, they must spend X amount of dollars in X amount of time? How much do websites make off online advertising? I'd imagine it must be a lot of money because you see ads/banners on big name companies I just dont understand how it all works and how its worth it since I have never been influenced by it...I guess I am the minority? You don't need to answer all my questions above, but have you guys ever clicked an ad and bought something? |
Yes they do work and knowing about the product/service and using it later out of memory (name regonition) works just as good Or even reffering someone. The only reason I know about GameTap or Direct2Drive is because of seeing the damn ads all the time. Not that I use them but if some asked about subscription game download services I would tell them about them.
When I'm on IGN a lot of times an add will inspire me to look up that game and find out more. No I'm not talking about stories and news but rather paid for ads.
Here go there now http://www.ign.com/
They have a big ad campaign up. Hard to miss and if you like bikes you'll remember it.
Now the ads here do confuse me as one would think this being a game market there would be more game ads.
