I'm in the industry, so here's the deal. Advertisers (Lame Iowa Jersey Store - LIJS) can buy ad space in three ways:
Cost Per Thousand Impressions (CPM) The advertiser buys the ads through networks or exchanges like Google, Yahoo, AOL or hundreds of other entities. They decide "I would like to behaviorally target men who love sports and also contextually target around Iowa Hawkeyes Football content". The technology behind whatever network they're using decides in a millisecond when to serve the ad based on the cookie history of the visitor as well as the content on that page. "Publishers" like MGoBlog are almost exclusively paid on a CPM basis. MGoBlog uses Google AdSense, which is technically a separate Google business than the one selling the ads to LIJS. Sneakyfuckers collect money on both ends. Clickthrough rates on a site like this are probably in the 0.02 - 0.1% range. Yes, I got that right. 1 in 1000 people would be a good day. So if MGoBlog has a good clickthrough rate, these impressions would look more valuable than BobsSportsBlog, even if they had the same impression volume. If advertisers are willing to pay more because MGoBlog drives more traffic to their site than BobsSportsBlog on a dollar-for-dollar basis, bidding and prices go up for MGoBlog. So impressions pay the bills. But clicks indirectly and theoretically increase the value of MGoBlog's space. |

Are you talking about a picture in the Sports Illustrated article? Because I see a picture of Russell Shepard on the first page and Manti Te'o on the second. Either you were referring to a picture somewhere else, or Sports Illustrated is serving up geographically-specific pictures. I'm in Minnesota. |

I had a professor that went from investment banking to upper management at Pizza Hut. He said what drove him to academia was a long debate about the necessity of the center pepperoni which was bludgeoned during the cutting process, and then further humiliated by the little tabletop that was placed in the middle of the pizza to prevent the boxtop from caving in on it. Removing that pepperoni would save them one million dollars franchise-wide. After lengthy debate, they kept the pepperoni to maintain optimal pepperoni density. All for you, Yinka. All for you. |

You put it in quotes, so it looks like you made a serious attempt at proper attribution. But sadly, you have encountered a nasty case of the FAILs. The quote (as noted by Sir Wikipedia, beholder of all knowledge) is "We have met the enemy and he is us." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogo_(comics)#.22We_have_met_the_enemy.....22 |

The shift button capitalizes letters The, second, sentence, of, the, second, paragraph, is Teh Awesomist I come for the insults. I stay for the insights. Your post lacks top-end speed-readability (not SHIFTy enough either-zing!) The smart-ass remarks help keep the dumbasses in check. Your diary subject was "humor", but wasn't funny. What gives? Overall, a fine post. Killed ten minutes. Yay. |
