OK, so I’m experimenting now with Google Ads. I have zero expectations that my blog can generate any meaningful income for me, but I’m certainly willing to give it a try. You’ll find them in the banner of many of the pages on this site now, and it’s kind of interesting to see what comes up. On the main page, I’m seeing ads about blogging and web hosting. On others there is Cubs memorabilia and invitations to meet Democratic singles. We’ll see how it goes.
Ads are everywhere, and it does me no good to try and avoid that reality here on my own blog. If you can’t beat them, join them, right? Keep in mind, I don’t determine the content of these ads, the Google Gods do that. So an ads appearance here on my site does not equate to an endorsement or recommendation of that product by me. But feel free to click on it anyway, you may put some coin in my pocket by doing so.
