Google Ads: Keeping the Exposures Constant

Anyone who's read much of this blog knows I've developed a fear of getting bedbugs. I've been doing a little better, but my family's not helping by doing things like buying new beds.

But anyway, google knows everything. So of course they know about those bedbug related searches I did a while back. Now about half the pages I visit on the internet, be they about basketball or anything else not remotely related to bedbugs, still have specialized ads just for me! Featuring, you guessed it, bedbugs!

I know that I could just use adblock. But that would be avoidance, and I can't do that! Yippee. Now if someone would explain why these ads keep telling me to purchase a Supercuts franchise.

  2. You go girl! It's bizarre how the universe sometimes seems to provide exposures that are specifically tailored to our exact fears. . .
