xerotao Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 So i noticed today that there are now ads on fishraider. Are these ads replacing sponsers as a source of revenue? and speaking of sponsers who are our current sponsers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoingFishing Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Not sure what the big deal is...... the site is exactly the same as it was before the only difference being the addition of some advertising. A small inconvenience (if you want to call it that) considering the mountains of information you have access to here for free...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seeing whats the deal with the ads as i do not see site sponsor banners and now see ads on my mobile site. Just seeing if the ads are now funding for the fishraider website instead of sponsors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big Neil Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 THE WORLD TODAY. Nothing is free, everything has a price. Glib statements, yet true. I know that nobody is complaining. We all need to realise that what we have here (Fishraider and Deckee) is a unique facility, where we can all share our love of what we do in an improved format. So let us all get behind it and move forward. Cheers, Raiders. bn 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xerotao Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 I just simply asked if sponsers have been to replaced by ads to fund the site. Nothing else. Never complained about the site not being for free. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike from DECKEE Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Hey xerotao, thanks for the question mate! We're working hard to secure the support of existing and new advertisers so we can keep investing in the future of Fishraider. At the moment, we're trying out some different ad styles and structures to see what works best for everyone. We're being very cautious not to go overboard, and over time we'll be making sure ads are relevant and interesting for raiders. If you have any feedback on this please let me know. We're all ears!

JonD Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) Hadn't noticed anyone complaining about the adds, just simply asking if the advertising structure had changed as there are adds not from the usual sponsors. I've got an add showing dog tick treatment and adreno dive masks on the top at the moment, doesn't bother me either but I had noticed the change. It just goes to show advertising is working and we are noticing what's on the site, which has got to be good for the advertisers.

Welster Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I wasn’t complaining. I was just letting Mrs Swordy know what I was seeing as I had at various other stages in the past. I assumed what I was seeing on my platform might be different to what they knew or expected me to see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
