    Adverts

    Is it just my phone taking over and doing it's own thing or is the message board now stuffed with advertisements?
    If you are worried about something, do something about it. If there is nothing you can do, why worry!

    I hope the revenue is worth it. Because it does not enhance the user experience. But indeed the bills gotta get paid.

    The ads are supplied by Google using what they call their "Auto Ads" format. Google determines the size, placement and frequency of the ads. They claim this is to "provide a good user experience for your visitors." Well, so much for that...

    But those truly annoying "anchor" ads that have been appearing at the top or bottom of your mobile phone have been "performing poorly" according to Google so we did get them to stop that nonsense...

    Thanks for your feedback!

    And please remember to let businesses in Negril know that you saw them on Negril.com! We would really like to eliminate the Google ads altogether!

    Ahmen, Rob!

    A few years ago, I replied to a Board inquiring about returning to a resort with a ladies for an overnight stay. I replied that in my experience, they were great hosts, I didn't think it would be a problem, but cautioned I wasn't sure how they react to a professional guest. The next time I logged on, the banner adverts were about escorts. Hilarious, but creepy all the same.

    My security software declares "this page safe, but notes the presence of Google Analytics and Facebook Tracker." There cashing in on us!
    We're all in this together and none of us is getting out alive.

    I don't see any ads on Android or Windows Chrome. But that may be because I have ad-blocking turned on.
