You're probably here because you want to know what happened to the category you were previously in.

(If not, check out the motoring section here: http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Motoring/ )

We've got some new ad layout which makes it possible for certain advertisers to take over whole categories as "residencies" or "takeovers".

This means that they'll take all the ad impressions for that page, and have the chance to do something clever with the advertising itself!

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here.

Residencies? Takeovers? Ad impressions? Speak English boooooy!
I've bought this from the Fragrance Shop and it is lovely. I consider it a real bargain.
Oops it's changed. It was an advertisement for Black Rose Perfume.

Here Mick, or in motoring?
I did I did I did. It was like staring into an Orwellian vision of the future. Rats in cages strapped to your face and everything. Night night. Don't have nightmares. :-}

Boom boom!
Ed, I was a member of a site called Ask your Neighbour a while back, the site, like this was very good with all the questions posted & answered from all over the UK, the Editors in their wisdom decide to section different part of the country! what I mean by that, A section in Manchester, a section in Leeds, a section in Preston Etc, all the members that made up the site was getting side stepped & complained to the Ed that the site was going for Ads instead of listening to the concerns of the members who had made the site. I understand that the site has to make money to continue but I hope you are going on a self destruct route like the AYN site? as the members of the AYN slowly left the site & the members went elsewhere.
Just as long as we don't get that dog or the singing nutter with the twisted moustaches...

TWR, we haven't done anything as drastic as that, so in short "no".

Regarding site usage we're up 10%ish on last year and bumped over 100,000 individual visitors on a Sunday morning a couple of weeks ago. So we're fine, no one has run away yet!
Where would we go?
cant see anything in motoring, apart from my own unanswered q!
I don't care I, as I suspect do the majority of users, don't look at the ads.

Internet advertising = the emperors new cloths.
Do you mean Remnant Kings Dave? :)

Morning,

We pulled the takeover for the weekend as the system indicated it fancied the weekend off. It'll be back again (and then you can tell me how rubbish you think it all is :) )

"Internet advertising = the emperors new cloths."

You'd be surprised how effective it is Dave.
