Flashy Advertising

You know those awesome headlines for articles you see on Yahoo or another such website that you really want to read or see the photos for? It’s got an amazing headline and you just HAVE to know or see the photos. So, you click on them. Then you end up having to figure out where the hell the actual content is because it’s basically just one ad after another? I f’n HATE that. That’s excessively flashy advertising.

You won’t get that nonsense here. However, there are ads so the banner is my warning 😘. They aren’t clickbait. They don’t come from a random ad generator. I’ve turned off WordPress Ads and will promote a variety of things that:

are projects of mine or that I’m involved in.
Products that I find helpful or enjoy.
Services that I find helpful or use myself.

That means less cookie tracking is taking place here. The ads you see aren’t targeted to you specifically.

I’ve also joined a couple of affiliate programs. If I share content that provides some sort of benefit to me, I’ll let you know (such as my posts tagged Minions Wanted).
