FPers need to realize that ads on pages are purposeful and not ironic

[Dougz]

Kinda hard to word out for a title. But most of you need to realize that google scans the page for keywords then searched through ads to find one relevant to the keyword. I don't know the exact process, but it is something along that line. So stop saying that an ad is ironic, it is placed there because of what the thread is about and the keywords in the thread.

I have to disagree:

But there is no keywords in this thread which are repeated.

[Murdoco]

I found that in a l4d2 thread. I'm just saying.

[PUNCHYOU]

Somehow I think most of the people here know that, mate. 'Sides that, in most cases it's just a coincidence and not ironic, though there have been a few times where it was ironic but those are rather rare.

Ads are keyword relevant, that doesn't mean they can't be ironic.

Irony ads would be, For example..

A thread telling people about the dangers of elastic bands, and then an ad at the bottom selling them.

Sure, it's using keywords to find 'elastic bands', but It's also "irony".

I remember a screenshot of a news site, and its an article about someone dieing in a house-fire, and the ad on the side says "Burn baby burn".

[Zeke129]

I'm hoping this page's ad is for No Shit Industries.

[matey9]

One time I saw an advert for a diet program with a Fat light skinned woman in the before picture and a well-toned black woman in the after one.

[BricknHead]

thanks for the insight doug

[Cuel]

good thread.

[Skwee]

I think everyone already knows that it uses keywords. Also, look up the word "irony" please. I think you don't know what it means.

[Wish I wasn't a]

They also need to see that the dumb rating is a brick, not a box.

What's your point exactly?

[Hamsterman]

:( So when I got a "stem cell treatment" ad in a thread about trees that wasn't funny but on purpose?

[hypno-toad]

I've got an ad for auto trader right now.

????

Might have read the word iron in ironic. After that, the conclusion makes perfect sense.

[pebkac]

Ahhhh, a perfect opportunity to post these pictures that have been laying around on my hard drive:

Adblock Plus: Save your time and traffic

Ever been annoyed by all those ads and banners on the internet that often take longer to download than everything else on the page? Install Adblock Plus now and get rid of them. Right-click on a banner and choose “Adblock” from the context menu — the banner won’t be downloaded again. Maybe even replace parts of the banner address with star symbols to block similar banners as well. Or choose a filter subscription, then even this simple task will usually be unnecessary: the filter subscription will block most advertisements fully automatically.

[Nick99]

I was sitting here wondering what the fuck you guys are talking about. Then realised that I have adblock.
