I'm sure every person who owns a website would love to do that - unfortunately advertisers dictate how much they want to pay and ad rates are low. I really don't think ads are excessive on this site, we have 3-4 main ads on most pages then a few supplementary ones on longer pages like forums and the homepage. Go to Kotaku, Joystiq, Destructoid, Box Office Mojo - any other site of a similar size to ours and you'll see just as many ads. Unfortunately it is what we need to do to survive. Do you honestly think if I could put one 10x10 pixel ad at the top of the page which generates as much revenue as the 4-5 we have at the moment that I wouldn't do it?? |
I am not complaining about the ads at the moment. The one I didn't like you removed (and thank you) :)
