Considering removing Google Ads from INLEO
It’s the source of a lot of our bugs and usability issues
Google pays horribly and also inconsistently. Some days we earn $0.75 or less which is completely wrong based on our traffic
We would move in favor of deploying our native ad protocol. I also have some ideas around promoting Premium subs using the ad space when other companies aren’t advertising in the space
This would bring more speed, usability and less randomized bug discovery (getting rid of Google completely)
Would a native ad protocol involve having our current users pay for ads? I'm not confident this would generate much engagement at all. Our userbase know how relatively little traffic actually crosses Hive, and I don't think most individual business or people would pay for ads here.
Scrap that if I'm misunderstanding the entire concept, of course. 😉
For such a low payout rate, it isnt worth the reduced speed on the site.
Google is never a great deal for anyone other than Google.
Sounds like a solid and wise move.
if its the case just get rid of it, down the road figure selling adds on the site, most active users are probably not about ads revenue, inleo microbloging platform already a great alternative to those who dont want to go the long form factor content, although the L1 to Hive ufff thats a big deal, one door close so another can open, keep it going ✌️
Imagine proving to people in Web2 that InLeo gets ad revenues without needing to go through Google Ads. This would break so many brains. It's like how ETH broke BTC dominance.
Google sucks! 😱 No news here! I will not be sad to get rid of the data kraken! I mean, it's called LEOads to begin with, so LFG! 🚀🌕👍🏽
