Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Is it just me or are there more adverts on Fetch

The pink one - that has a caption, or the grey one, which doesn't?

Is it the Russian brides making a low-key comeback?

Now I'm getting banner adverts for "The Oldie - the most original magazine in the country". THAT is taking the piss....! :-(

She looks a bit Uma Thurman-y

What the hell is she advertising? have I been on some dodgy website and the ad-thing reckons I want links to 'Fishnet Uma' or something?

All I get is Garmin and Adidas. I'd much rather look at Uma Thurman-y.

Now I'm getting 'DiscoverTheForest.org' which looks lovely but is actually an ad for the US National Parks service. Bit of a long way to go that.

She appears to be advertising Net-a-Porter, judging by the box.
You may wish to check your credit card. Or Leibling's. Or maybe not!

Is it because i've just read a story on sky news about the US cutting 40,000 troops why i'm now getting an advert for a concealed pistol holster?

About This Thread

Maintained by Son of a Pronator Man
Fetch says: "I don't choose the ads, I just supply the holes, and the people who pay my salary and supply a server choose what they want to put in them. The change was a surprise to me too, and I've asked for some clarification on the thinking.

If you get any particularly dodgy ones, e.g. Russian mail order brides, or ones that break the user experience, it would be helpful for me to see some screenshots (ian AT fetcheveryone.com), and I'll feed those back."

And: "I've just clicked the little blue triangle in the top right corner of the ad, and looked at the opt-out options. On the page it took me to (after it took a while to think about it), there was a button called something like 'Choose All Companies' - I clicked that, and thus far, it seems to have opted me out of all the ads."
