I bet you clicked on it? I’m really curious what I’ll get if I click on that ad? Cell phones? Soccer Jerseys? Rick Roll?

I hadn’t clicked the link when I posted that first comment. Those ad placements are hilarious!

I know of another ad that would be even funnier if you would just set it up!

Maybe one of those clients that sells the ole “buy a jersey get a cell phone” promotional offers? Maybe not :) Probably more likely a designer who was doing too many things at once or using an old ad as a template.

I once had a prospective client that provided accounting services to small businesses and also had a side business selling fire extinguishers. I tried to recommend separating these into two different businesses, or at least different websites. They didn’t go for that idea. Last I checked, the homepage was sort of a splash page with a big photo for accounting services on the left, and fire extinguishers on the right. Let’s focus people… focus.
