Neha wonders why she sees such ads in her Gmail Inbox. I think I have found the answer in one of the ads at a geeky website.
What percentage of geeks would not want to scroll the (unscrollable) bar? Actually, the ad is pretty effective:
The beautiful (and apparently nude) woman has been strategically placed.
The scroll bars and missing ‘ing’ of missing creates the impression that there is more to be seen.
The word ‘see’ has been naughtingly highlighted. Half of the geeks are voyeurish. Q.E.D.
There is ‘I am a : woman’ seeking ‘man’ instead of ‘I am a : man’ seeking ‘woman’. Women are smarter than men in matters of heart, more Q.E.D.
If one gets caught by the boss while looking at such women, there is that brialliant excuse of ‘Advantages of PHP Over Java’. Yes, the original page. If boss is any good (that means a good geeky and that would mean single and lonely), he would be looking for options himself, so not much to worry.
Scriptsfinder.com has enough knowledge about online geek behaviour and hence such ads.
When you go to the actual mate1.com site, their default search is ‘I am a man seeking a woman, age 18-35′. They know who would be finally coming to their site !
