This is Why You Don’t See More Ads
March 17th, 2010 | Author: foucault
The vast majority of people who contact me about “advertising” are actually looking for some shady shit like this, though some of them express it more subtly:
“I work for XXX and we are looking for you to publish some content of ours on your website. In exchange, I can give you a free £30 free bet at our casino. Our content writer has produced several reviews of our online slot games. Would you be interested in posting one of these articles on your site in exchange for a £30 free bet?”
I don’t usually respond, but this one was particularly blatant, so I wrote back:
Sorry, I write my own reviews, and I don’t take bribes.
