Looking on the right side, you’ll see some Google Ads and a Google Search box. Here’s the deal. If I can make a little money just by putting a couple boxes on the site, why not?
And I do mean “little.” But, what the hell?
Clicking the links in the ads or using the Google search box will give me some benefit, but DO NOT do it unless you really want to and don’t click on an ad unless you have real interest. Google, rightfully, does not want anyone promoting clicking the links for money. It’s unethical to begin with, but it also drives up ad rates for legitimate businesses and that’s not fair to them.
So, if you see something you like or need to search Google for something, feel free to use what is there or just ignore it like most people do.
