I see an add for investing in real estate, a vroom.com ad and an ad about browser securty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me when I say if I could've put "adult" ads on the mwcboard I would've. I also would've made substantially more money and probably would still own the website.

I’m not sure how the targeting works specifically but I’m guessing you’ve done quite a few political searches and that’s probably what’s happening. Idk. I’m half tempted just to take the ads down as they don’t even cover the cost of the site and just ask for donations instead to keep the site going. Costs are $10 per month for hosting and $90 a year for the software license (bastards increased it…). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
