Its a necessary evil if you want free content. Btw, click rates are much lower, about 0.05% for a content site.
People also come across thousands of ads that they ignore every day in billboards, shopping windows etc. That's not a legitimate reason to rule out advertising as a revenue option. (On the other hand, claiming that the majority of people find them useful is a bit of a stretch)
- gburt 15y agoI've run AdSense on hundreds of websites and I get click rates between 0.5% and 10%. Not 0.05% that's insanely low. Mind you, a lot of those sites (the high end, anyway) are optimized strongly for clicks. The ads show up in the middle of content (as an "interlude") or prominently above the fold.
