Hey Sean,
I’ve got a question about ads. Do you gain revenue every time I log onto
the site and see the ad, or do I actually have to click on it? If the
latter, I think we in the community could make the very minor commitment to
click on ads when we see them, if it will help keep great resources afloat.
Thanks for adding the image hosting, btw.

I don’t think you want to do that. It might get Sean in trouble for
click fraud. Just click on the ads
that you are actually interested in.

Hmm, guess I won’t do that then. It does see odd to me. The idea of
advertising is the more eyeballs the better. My TV doesn’t penalize me for
watching the commercials even if I don’t buy anything. To the contrary, they
are hoping that since I watch the commercials I may end up buying something I
wasn’t originally intending to. It seems that if I go to a website it increases
the likelihood that I will buy. Obviously an automated program generating
clicks is fraud, but a real person checking out a real website, even if not with
a pre-formed intent to buy, seems like what advertisers would like.
