    You think that in 2025 companies with large media budgets are buying digital ads and just saying “well fuck it maybe we’ll make money on it”?

    They track EVERYTHING. From the impression to the click tot he purchase, and there are trackers and attribution platforms by the hundreds out there to help them understand what the ROI they’re receiving on those ads are.

    Companies are buying ads because people are buying products.

    Even if the site is 90% bots there are enough real people using the site to make buying ads profitable.
