    Is it me (and my too many hours on boards) or is it register.ie's ad that is the problem. Everytime (it seems!) I reload a page I get "Knickers again?!" in my face. I wouldn't mind, but they aren't even real knickers. Time for an ad. rotation?

    yer i noticed that same thing
    seems liek 75% regester.ie 25% blackknight

    but of course 75% of statistics are made up on the spot anyway ;)

    Refreshed boards 20 times in a row and Blacknight came up 12 times and register.ie 8 times. Hmmm I need to find a hobby.

    dont these things work on the number of impression they get ?

    so the more impression, the more times that ad will be displayed ?

    i wonder what the clickthrough is like


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Clickthrough rate is between .5% and .1% usually... depends on the ad.

    We cant change them as we are charging for them but they will be ceasing on the 23rd.

    They are indeed in a 2:3 ratio :)

    I'm sure boards.ie will happily host a blank ad for you if you want. Just show em the money.

    Actually dev, how many ads will I get for €100 ? Have this evil idea.

    I also have an evil Idea and would like to purchase ad space for humorous gains in aid of boards and the continuation of spammage :)

    The Ads are grand btw, you should sell adspace to eircom and compustore

    Is there some sort of ISO standard to qualify as knickers that they failed to fulfil?

    Merely that they were electronically generated on a computer screen 15 inches in front of my face and weren’t actually 15 inches in front of my face. ;)
