Rome wasn't built in a day.

HJ is something like 12 years old now and has developed over the years into a business.

We're still in the infancy stage, but who knows what's going to happen 10 years from now.

How old is the Data? - I know it states "updated 30/11/12", but when I entered my website, re-built and re-hosted on a completely different server,(May 2012), it still shows the old site and data.

I wonder how long before this whole online advertising bubble bursts. I have had occasion to listen to people trying to sell Yell and Google analytics and tecnical stuff but at the end of the day, most people use ad blockers or just ignore these adverts.

The whole "branding" and product placement malarkey is drummed up by people with vested interests in trying to make lots of money and justify their own existence. Like external consultants who come into workplaces, force their ideas on and then leave before they need to face the consequences!!

Emirates pay trillions to sponsor teams, arenas etc - will it make me give them a penny of my hard earned - no it won't.

If someone advertises a deal like the Aldi and Lidl ones, yes they work very well and do make me go into their shops specifically for advertised items. Same with supermarkets.

But I don't think I have ever bought anything that I have seen on a webpage like this.

And in some webpages, what you actually see are the last items that someone on your PC was viewing so why show them again?

I don't know but Google makes it's money from online ads - that is their business after all. Seems to be working so far. Even selling phones like the Nexus 4 at a loss is part of their business plan.

The money is made by the likes of Google from the ads. Not if the ads lead to a sale.

Even this website gets an income from showing ads. It gets more if you click on them. Click on too many and they'll be suspicious.
