Advertisers bid on keywords, and the highest bidder for a particular word or phrase gets their ad served up proportionately more than other bidders. Google shares an undisclosed percentage of the revenue with sites that host Goolge Ads. Yes, then, it's our own words which are driving the advertisements.

Beer, Beer, Girls in bikinis, Girls girls, beer. Lingerie models. beer.

it might take more than that to outweigh the "geeky boys" statistics though. then again probably the two demographics are not mutually exclusive...

You're screwing up the thread, umm, girl. Girls. Bikini. Callipygous Swimsuit Models.

I have the utmost confidence that someone, somewhere, has bid for the keyword "callipygous" and I can't wait to see the ad.

Ah well; let's try and make Taylor happy: Girls. Bikini. Callipygous Swimsuit Models.
(This probably means that there'll be yet another ad from a matrimonial agency with Russian ladies.)

I figure this sight stays away from most Political/Religious/Meditative.... stances..

Maybe I am wrong..

hidari.

P.S. Is one of the Gurus of MobileRead a Chistian Scientologist?

Oh, goody ... no one noticed the small error .... so I get to be completely anal retentive and point it out:

Christian Science and Scientology are different things. No such thing as "Christian Scientology."

In fact, I'm certain that Scientology doesn't have anything to do with Christianity. As I recall it's got to do with aliens from outer space who "seeded" us ... and like that there.

Now, don't you all wish I hadn't bothered to point this out???

girls girls Callipygous venus (hoping for an ad or two from a museum)

Now the banner ad is advertising banner ads.

Callipygous llamas.

Taylor514ce · 08-18-2008, 12:35 PM

No No! Don't pollute the Callimammapygian Swimsuit Model thread with those... other... terms. Beer. Girls drinking beer. Pimped out lama-riding redheaded girls in leotards.
