I can't hand on heart say I'm against ads given that my ad revenue from WP.com helped me quit my job this year! However I don't think ads would do anything for smaller users... ie 99% of steemians... their audience is so small there would be no demand for advertising on their blogs... ad revenue doesn't even kick in on WP.com until you get over 20K views a month. Also, to create a viable market we'd need to switch the page views display back on or give potential ad space buyers some way of telling how many human views they are getting! I have used FB ads to drive traffic to my WP blog.... on that basis I'd need to know exposure and click through rate to make a value for money assessment. Ironically if we could get ads to work it might reduce the influence of bots - advertisers want actual human users not bot votes! It would also probably need communities to be sorted so as to.allow for targetted ads. Do 17 of the top 20 witnesses want ads...? Posted using [Partiko Android](https://steemit.com/@partiko-android)

> Do 17 of the top 20 witnesses want ads...? This is not a hardfork proposal, and therefore would not be dependent on witness votes. It would really be up to individual website UIs to decide.

Thanks for the clarification. It's getting hard to keep up with all devs on here, let alone the potential ones! Posted using [Partiko Android](https://steemit.com/@partiko-android)
