Google ads far from perfect

Google is one of the best companies of all time, but it still has its kinks.

Google’s AdSense program
allows blogs and other websites to make money. Google passes along some of the money it makes when visitors click on an ad.

Google brags about its ability to deliver targeted ads to your website. Moreover, Google brags about its ability to deliver its clients’ ads to potential clients through AdWords.

As of this writing, my ad client was pimping Silica Gel, a topic I tackled two days/five posts ago.

Spend ten seconds on my site, and you’ll know there’s a less-than-slight chance my visitors need silica any time soon.

Luckily, Google loses revenue when its ads go unclicked, so this problem shouldn’t go unchecked too long.

For the time being, mentioning “silica” might cost me another two days of silica-targeted ads.
