  We don't typically sell them this way, but the CPM for an ad on e.g. retaildive.com is much higher than anything on Google's network. > Unfortunately, there is no correlation between people willing to buy stuff and high quality content. Citation needed :)

    Do I really need a citation to prove dumb people have money? Because that's basically what you are asking. Or perhaps you believe that when people click an ad on "low-quality" site the are less likely to buy than from the same ad on "high-quality" site? Seriously, the "enlargement penis" spam works because the average person is not that selective on the ads they chose nor the websites they visit.

      > the "enlargement penis" spam works because the average person is not that selective on the ads they chose nor the websites they visit I don't think you understand "average". It's the extreme tail of the distribution that is targeted by such ads. Example: > Nigerian scam emails 'deliberately implausible' > New research from Microsoft suggests that email scammers maximise profits by entrapping only the most gullible. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/microsoft/9346371/Nigerian-scam-emails-deliberately-implausible.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/microsoft/9346371/Nige...
