This is a link post A new angle to the adwar
SO, through some reason I reached this site with adblock pro turned on. Low I was presented with banner and MPU spaces with the bg image 'if the ads don't pay, you will'
What an interesting development.

This is a normal post First time I've seen it, but it is a fairly basic approach.
When you have ad block on it suppresses anything loading from Google (in this case). All that have done is put a background image in the space where the google ads are, so when you have adblock you see the background image, rather than the ads that usually cover it. It's the sites image, not google.

This is a normal post yeah
pretty basic.
But first time I have seen it so I thought I would share. It is an interesting point they are making.

This is a normal post And
If the ads are irrelevant jiggling sh1te you can guess where I'll be putting them. I generally only block annoying junk so more effort required from both sides perhaps?

This is a normal post The new advert/popup technique atm
is to have them running from flash programs which are almost impossible for most ad blockers to spot at this current time. That;s why you;re getting popups.

Recently developed too.
