Too many ads in the articles

Jon,

Just curious but why are there are so many ads in the article section of the website. I was reading Alan robots.txt article and 3 huge *** Monster Commerce ads fill up half of the screen space. I have to stare at the left of the screen to gather any information from the article. I understand ads are necessary to a point, but it appears they have started to take over the content!

My 2 cents!



Ben

I think you answered your own question ;)

Ads are there because they pay the bills.

I do not care about the ads, as long as the service is free

Here's an idea. Offer a no ads option, for say $25.00 a year. I'm sure a lot of us would pay for that.

We are not considering that as an option. That would be very painful to code, and our whole revenue model is advertising based - but thank you for the idea.
