Just as the title says: Have you ever clicked on an ad, knowing it was an ad, on purpose? What ad was it? Why did you click it?

Curious because I realized I have not once in my life clicked on an ad shown online on purpose. Accidentally, and being tricked into clicking the wrong thing sure; never with intent though.

    Yes!

    Probably a couple of times a year, some interesting product will catch my eye. It doesn’t necessarily mean I’d be willing to buy the product. The last thing I clicked on was a yarbo ad. There’s no way in hell I’m going to pay 5 to 10 grand for a robot tractor, but to be honest the thing looks pretty cool. I watch the entire ad did a quick search for pricing and what about my day. Now I’ll probably see 420,000 different ads for it but that’s okay it still looks pretty cool.
