Steven P. Administrators Posted June 16, 2010 Administrators Share Posted June 16, 2010 We have decided to pilot advertising on the Google AdWords Network in an effort to get our site out there, where people have not yet heard of our awesomeness. With homage to the Neowin 1.0 days (of 2000/01) We have decided to use "News, Reviews & Betas" in the ad, but with Tech added in front. Hopefully this investment is money well spent! Please screenshot it, if you see it anywhere :p brentaal 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioran Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 This hopefully won't lead to more ads on the site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 This hopefully won't lead to more ads on the site? no because they're targeting people who are not running ad blockers and bringing them to the community ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Question, why is it set to just "United States" in the targeting section? Wouldn't it be better worldwide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pilot, if it actually does anything for us, we'll expand... good business practice is to start small and work your way up ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bioran Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Dude, why would we advertise Neowin on our own site? I mean, would this lead to more third-party ads (i.e. Those in-text ads) being displayed on Neowin to support the costs of advertising Neowin?
