Now ads for Delta 7 the book for sale on Amazon appear at the top of all the AW pages...coincidence?
Orion4life,
First of all, it’s not showing up on “all” the pages (I wish! J). Right now, for example, my browser has “Marine Air Wing,” “Military Birth Injury,” and “Marine Corps Apparel/Gear” in the "Ads by Google" section which your webmaster has put at the top of this page.
No conspiracy here.
I already fessed up in my second post on this thread that I was (at least in part) plugging my book.
I have little control over where Google’s Adwords campaign puts my ads. For example, some of them are showing up on sites like (please don’t visit them, I’m not associated in any way with them nor am I trying to plug them):
Allmichaeljackson.com (I couldn’t make myself even go to this one!)
Taleofyanlin.com (???)
Rpg.net (a gaming site)
Like I said before, I was very much interested in finding out about airwarriors.com because it sure as heck sounded more like “my demographic” than some of the others that showed up on the list I got from Google.
In the interest of total disclosure, my latest report from Google says I’ve paid $3.16 for 4 clicks from this site so far this month. Furthermore, the report says my ad ran (was displayed) 1104 times on airwarriors.com. The way I understand it, airwarriors.com will get some percentage of that as their cut of the ad revenue. I honestly don’t know how that part works.
Again, there’s nothing sinister going on. I am who I say I am. And I am “no sierra” enjoying participating in this thread and this board (despite being from an “alien service!”). I’d be happy to share more details on the process (as much as I know… I’m a neophyte), just drop me a personal note and I’ll respond privately to avoid “crapping up” this thread.
Cheers,
John
