Removed Dating Ads from AB & Category Introductions

Good afternoon,

I've made a small change to our advertising on the site, mainly after seeing a really really bad dating advert for "date single mom's"

So we're not going to have dating ads (unless if really badly affects the cash-flow).

There has also been some complaints about an advert which is making noise. If you see if could you identify the company or the web address the advert goes to please and let me know. I've yet to see it so removing it is an issue.

In other, slightly related news, we will be rolling out the new ad format for category pages (i.e. http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Motoring/ with less owl) this gives us the opportunity to put some category description/helpful hints in. I wondered if anyone would like to offer some ideas for what they'd really like to see in the category description.

Before we begin though, I think we've got Q&P covered :)

All the best,

Ed

Oi Ed!!!

B00... For shame a person in your position within AB using Adblocker. :-)

Incidentally, I was confused by the word 'Gumph' but have had it translated into Welsh which appears to be 'Cachu'.

I laugh at an advert by the M25, for a dating website called sugardady.com.

Which rich idiot is going to put himself on line for all the gold diggers to chase?

Hopkirk

oops sugardaddy, (or it might be sugardaddie)

If the Sugardaddy advert were on the M4, I think it could be 'Tadsiwgr.com'

All useful info for the Ed, just in case Welsh Advertisers invade AB, via Google.
