Online advertising? Isn't it getting old?

[Gary Sheppard]

I see all these companies generating billions in advertising revenue and wonder exactly why?

I go onto youtube for example.... I "skip ad" and couldn't care less about it.

I go onto facebook and never pay attention to the ads that take up the screen.

I go onto many different sites where ads are blinding me and have absolutely no interest in anything they have to offer.

I and most of the world, know what we want.... I will not buy a Chevy Malibu because Yahoo has a picture of it on the side while I am looking for information on a certain topic.

How long do you honestly think that people will waste money advertising on websites, even if the websites are amazing, are people not getting used to ignoring these ads?


When it was the new thing for everyone, I understand that the ads were needed, but now a days, a simple click on amazon or ebay and you found everything that you need.
