In general, do you pay attention to Google’s text-based ads? If you do follow them, tell us why. If you don’t, tell us why. Should Google keep these “sponsored ads”? Tell us why or why not.
I never use Google's ads. To me, they appear to be similiar to ads that pop up on your screen when you absolute don't want them there and they are annoying. I don't mind the Google text-ads as much because they are just placed on the side of the webpage and don't interfere with what I'm doing, but I just don't see a need to use them. To be honest, I barely even pay attention to them. Maybe it is because there is no image that I'm not drawn to the ad as much as I would be to an image. A lot of the time the ads are just so short that they don't even make sense as to what they are trying to advertise.
I don't think Google should keep these "sponsored ads". I guess because I find no need for them they seem useless to me. If they work and are popular among other people, then they don't interfere with my use of Google or any Google functions. I don't find them helpful and I've never utilized the "sponsored ads" but at the same time they are much better than a pop up ad or a really flashy ad on the side of my webpage.

If you ignore the ads and don't like them, I'm sure you're not alone. If you got a job with Google, how might you change this so that you could make money off of people's searches?
ReplyDeleteI would place a small but colorful ad to draw their attention. I'm drawn to images over text, so I'd want to include an image to sell my product.
