Some marketers believe it doesn’t matter if someone clicks as brand recognition has its own value. On the other hand, who hasn’t heard of Tiktok by now?

dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 10 months agoI have never, not once in my life, clicked on an internet or electronic ad. Even for things I’m ostensibly interested in. Jury’s out on just how much manically SEO optimized retail web sites on Google count as “ads,” I guess. But other than that: Zilch.
But someone somewhere must be clicking on them because billions of dollars are spent every year pushing the fucking things.

I’ve seen Proton services mentioned so much here and in communities such as selfhosted that I went to their website today to check what they offer.

I’ve only ever clicked on one ad and that was for a cloud host I thought would be cheaper than Vultr. If anyone knows a managed k8s cluster cheaper than Vultr let me know plz.

I’m so skewed this direction that I’ll scroll past the sponsored version of the link in a Google search to click on the exact, unsponsored version. I don’t know why.

There’s been malware pretending to be legit links that get pushed to the top by being sponsored links. It’s a great idea to never click on sponsored links.
