Blatman Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 And Pistonheads is owned by? Lots, but ad blocker sorts that... Ad blocker doesn't magically stop the huge revenues generated though, does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Lots, but ad blocker sorts that... So Pistonheads don't get paid for all those adverts because you use Ad Blocker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Keene Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 And Pistonheads is owned by? Ad blocker doesn't magically stop the huge revenues generated though, does it? I misunderstood the point of your post, of course adblocker doesn't stop the revenue. The point I was making is the adverts are not a problem to the user, even without ad blocker.

Blatman Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Unless it's changed hands, it's owned by Haymarket Publishing. I suspect ads on Pistonheads to form part of one of the no doubt many packages offered to advertisers in all their magazines. Running Pistonheads would be insignificant compared to the revenues generated by the parent company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
