Adsense: Flooded by Weight-Loss Ads
Update: *editorial corrections marked in brackets [as such].
It has been decided by the SensoryMetrics marketing advisory sub-committee (SMMASC) that Google Adsense will be turned off on this site. Um, that is, turned off and deactivated, (just as soon as we figure out how to close our account).
I know, so many of you will miss our colourful random meaningless [-ful] ads provided by Google Adsense.
Well to remember them by, here’s a post to say goodbye [thank you] to Adsense, it’s been nice! but, bye, bye.
I know, you must be wondering, “Why would we turn down free cash? It’s delivered in the mail for crying out loud!”
Well, there are a few [two minor and somewhat insignificant] reasons. For one, Google Adsense seems to exist in a weird unconnected business silo bubble or black hole. We have never [not yet] been able to resolve linking Google Analytics to our AdSense account. The Analytics support won’t talk to the Adsense support or is it the other way around? Who knows, we give up on it. It’s funny [been useful] to read the posts in the Google support forums, a bunch of people have this problem, but no one from Google Adsense support seems [has had the opportunity] to read this stuff. Um, is there an Adsense support group? Do they even exist or are they just virtual Google bots?
I guess the second reason, is that we’re sick of fat chick [weight-loss] ads. Go away, leave us alone with the fat chick “how to lose a ton of weight through a secret we will sell you” [lose weight] ads. Enough’s enough. [We'll happily endure more crazy ads since we like weight loss advertisements as much as the rest the ads]. It’s just not [so] worth the free money to put these annoying [fun] ads on the site! [Thanks, for the tips, yes, logging into our account and blocking the ads we don't want is just too obvious a fix, thx.]
If you are a member of the Adsense support team and just can’t live without our participation in your business. Here’s what it will take to win us back:
Please help us fix our broken account link between Adsense and Analytics. Then we’ll update this post with joyous praise or delete it as you wish.
Forever in your debt-itude. Your humble servants @SensoryMetrics.
