The Irony Of Google Adwords

There was a recent comment on my blog noting that the Google Advertisements which show up in my right sidebar are heavily weighted towards law office billing software.  Because I am constantly blogging about alternative billing systems, Google takes note of that fact.  So Google in its infinite wisdom serves up law office billing software advertisements.

The irony of course is that I am dissing hourly billing.  You don’t need Tabs3 or Caseload.com near as much if you are not billing by the hour.  Google doesn’t distinguish between positive and negative commentary. 

But for those of you who are interested in law firm billing software, feel free to click on any of the ads in the right sidebar.  Some of the software is only $95.00 with a free trial!

that is pretty hilarious, I doubt anyone would pay that when you offer better alternatives here, I feel bad for those advertisers who are prolly paying 1$ per click.

It's funny. I never really noticed the ads before the comment which sparked the post above. Essentially, Google is telling me that the 800 lb. gorilla in the room is "billing", and that I am generating a tremendous amount of content about that single issue. At the end of the day, I am somewhat happy that Google has validated what I always wanted this blog to be about.

Thought you might find that a bit ironic.

If you want to know what a web site is all about, just check out the advertisements being served up. The Google algorithm knows what topics are the hottest on any web site and serves up ads to match!
