| 1. I use to ask the same thing |
|
about certain ads, and then I donated and they went away.

the ad and make them spend their money. They are usually charged per click.

| 4. No actually most websites charge standard rates these days. |
|
Click throughs are usually only used to see how efficient a site is, sort of like a TV rating. The 'cost per click' is compared to other sites to see which ones performed the best. So clicking on the ad would only make this site seem more efficient and they would place more ads here.

| 5. Not with Google Adwords |
|
They charge the advertiser by the click.

| 6. I assumed that the ad was sold direct by DU. |
|
Didn't know it was Google Adwords.

DU serves two forms of ads: Google Adwords ads and those liberal package ads from BlogAds.

| 3. Because it's a Google Adwords ad |
|
...and Google adwords are auto-generated through keyword targeting.
If you see an ad the offends you, contact the DU administrators and it will be blocked.
