Do you click on Google Ads?
It's quite a simple question really. Do you ever click on Google AdSense ads? And if so, how regularly?
I see Google Ads quite differently than regular banner ads, mainly because they're more relevant.
I'm asking this because I've seen more and more webmasters placing Google Ads on their web sites, and I'd like to know if the community "supports".

Sometimes, most of the time when the ads relate to software.

I sometimes do on sites that I like, because it gives ad revenue to the webmasters. If it's a good website, then I want to support the webmasters in every way I can.
But, usually I don't.

Yeah, I usually don't unless I want to support somebody.
I think it's just us tech-oriented people who don't click on them as much. I think a lot of pepole don't see them as advertisments, but rather links to relevant material that they may be interested in.
But we, as fellow webmasters and all, tend to ignore them, as we do with all other advertisments. Normal people, however, don't have our awesome ability to totally ignore advertising.

I never, ever click on ads. I use Firefox's adblock extension to exterminate any I see. Theres only a handful of site that I don't do this for, Neverside being on of those chosen.

Ad's are only good for sites where people who don;t know a lot about computers go to. Since a lot of them get curious or think thats what their looking for. They end up clicking on it.
Ive only ever clicked on an ad once cos it was porn related and i got to download 2 gigs of free porn movies. It was so worth the click and 11 virus warnings i got.

When are people ever going to realize that when you "shoot the ball in the basket" you are clicking on an ad? :P pretty soon everyone's gonna catch up and ads will just be stupid and ignored
