I know I'm not supposed to click on my own Google ads, but a "custom m&m's" ad came up there and I thought, "hey, that's cool, I want to make custom m&m's!"
I clicked before I even knew that I was clicking.
Which made me wonder about the Google policy of "no clicks on your own ads." I know what that policy exists, but it seems to me that if something actually interests me, I'm likely to want to go there, and I'm not particularly happy about typing out a url to do so. So if the ad is good enough, I just may click. My click benefits the advertiser, and hardly skews their numbers an iota. And here I am telling you all about how cool custom m&m's are.
Of course I'm also going to link them here: Custom M&M's. And I do it for free. Google may not have wanted me to do that.
But I couldn't help myself.
What think you? Custom m&m's... cool or not cool?
