I work in marketing. So it’s a forehead-slapper when I see someone screw it up.
Take, for instance, targeted advertising. Based on algorithms that scan sites’ respective content for certain words and themes, an ad generator can create a targeted banner ad that might appeal to that website’s visitors.
I visited the 20somethings today and discovered a “targeted ad” that may suggest something about our personalities.
Maybe we all say “shit!” and “I’m getting old” a little too much, because the targeted advertising is reacting this way:
I’m waiting on “Hair Loss Help” to roll around.
I saw this too! Maybe we should heed their suggestions & stock up, or something. They (& by “they” I mean depend.com) might know something we don’t. ;]
lol oh wow… good ol’ 20 somethings!
Oh yeah, like the changes in the layout!
Hahaha! How random :)
Wow. That is pretty random!
Well? Did you click the banner ad?
@Eric: just you wait.
@apricot.: fingers crossed that they don’t. :)
@Tin Ma’am: thanks! and yes, “oh, 20somethings…” heh
@Jenn: random, or completely specific? i guess we won’t ever know.
@Jamie: possibly, but Google ads usually does pretty well. dunno what happened here.
@Ev: yes. it goes to http://www.depends.com
I poop, so this ad appeals to me. BTW, thanks for the add..:-)
hahahahahaha I seriously love that.
