Today, most of the internet is funded by Advertisement. The
free content is provided in exchange for advertisement, so there is a good
chance you will see advertisement on almost every page and most of the people
don’t like it. Now Google is using this tiny issue to find another way to
generate funds for web. Google will eliminate ads from your favorite sites if
you are willing to spend a tiny amount. The new service is called Contributor and using it, you can
donate $1, $2 or $3 every month and all ads provided by Google will be removed
from websites which are participating. Instead of ads, in the area where ads
were supposed to be posted you will see a pixel pattern or just a simple
Thank-you message.
It should be mentioned that if you will donate some amount
to Google it will only remove ads which are provided by Google, other
Third-party ads will still be shown. All of you must be thinking why should we
pay for something when you can already get it for free from ad blocking programs.
Well, this is also same as other websites like Spotify, Rhapsody and many
others which provide the same content that is already available for free on the
web, and they get funded by people who care about the content creator’s work
and pay for that anyways. Same will go for Google and some people might still
pay if they care about Google’s cause.
