AB is being inundated with adverts. Do these spammers really go through all the rigmarole of signing up to an account just to advertise totally inappropriate things to the entirely wrong demography? Seems strange to me.
At one point last night 5 out of the six recent posts were spam. Thats six people taking at least 10 minutes to think of a user name set up a working email and all of the rest of the palaver. I just wondered if somehow, they bypassed this process but I very much doubt it.
I had an ad blocker on my computer until I couldn't get on AB. I removed it and my computer, in all sorts of other programmes, was inundated with ads. I am seriously considering putting the ad blocker back on and forgoing the pleasure of AB. I don't think I would mind so much if there were not so many, and they didn't cover the writing.
Far from it. A rupee is very little so if they only get one hit it mays for many attempts.
Many years ago I worked for a Life Assurance Company. Although I didnt peddle the rubbish we were sent on the sales courses.
One thing that always sticks in the mind is the expectation. For every 10 phone calls get 1 person who will allow a visit. For every 10 who visit 1 only one will buy.
But the profit was so good on that one sale it was worthwhile cold calling 100 people and vititing 10 of them to get it.
FOA Prudie, Please can you tell me how to do that, or point me in the right direction. I am NOT technically minded, being more akin to a Luddite!!! It will be much appreciated, thank you.
