Advertisements for big money?

<< < (3/9) > >>

Mad Cow:
I say go for it, I for one use adblock with firefox so it won't affect me at all. ;D But even if I didn't use it I wouldn't care, as long as it's a banner at the top or something and doesn't impede browsing I won't care.

DancemasterGlenn:
Go for it, I know the money will be put to good use.

scorche:
I am definitely for non-obtrusive text ads, however I don't know if we should discount AdSense so soon.  We could have a month to try out a few things...

And I think we have enough "Go for it"s, so please only say something if you are discussing or saying "no".

crzyboyster:
My position would be that putting text only ads on the rockbox.org frontpage (or maybe on all wiki pages?) would be a great idea.

I have a question about how these google adsense things work. So say we tell people to click on the ads just for the sake of raising money. Would this get even more money for the rockbox fund if it's on a click and pay basis?

Yes, that's how google adsense ads work, but if we'd go with them we could never ever write anything that would encourage people to do this. In fact, just mentioning the ads (on the same or a related site) has been deemed inappropriate by google in the past (and then they revoke your rights to display their ads). Which is another reason I like ads that pay a fixed amount per month.
