Thanks for the kind words fella, means much
Will do for sure.. and I must say it's always been incredibly smooth dealing with you from my end as well. A real pleasure instead of something stressful. Always nice when trust isn't an issue.

Then they'd calculate that there are 4,987 horny women close by that qualify and fit your criteria/answers, and if you join free now they will come at you like women do in Axe bodywash commercial - in avalanche formation.
And again this thread had me curious, so I checked out the big tubes today and those same creatives still seem to be the landing page of choice. How people fall for that I don't know but companies are spending LOTS $$ to advertise there and, I assume, are making money.
It's still a puzzle to me.

So fucking true man.. But I will say this, they test the shit out of those ads and do have the resources to run the numbers in bulk. Personally I'm with you, always surprised at the garbage they put up there when just a few tweaks could earn them THOUSANDS more dollars per day. A real lack of creativity, and as you say they RARELY change.
I will concede only one thing.. that as of late, like this past year.. they have started to pick up on psychology based ads. But then their execution is sub-standard. Imagine if they were running something even slightly more well rounded. That is a job that would be a lot of fun to have. But I don't think it's the tubes that run those ads.. Keep in mind, those ads are run by MEDIA BUYING "EXPERTS" in charge of their creatives.
Makes you wonder how people get those kind of jobs ya know. Even on tv commercials, I'm always like "who the fuck was in charge of those creatives", and god would I love to do that job.
But to the big boys credit, what is seen on the surface to some (like us webmasters) and other more intelligent people.. holds an entirely different perspective for average consumers.
I used to test landing creatives on my lovingly dumb jock buds.. and was always shocked on what they picked out being more drawn to. Was usually the second to last in the barrel. An interesting lesson.
BUT, there is a big difference in getting someone to click an ad and getting someone to sign up. Smooth transition and continuity coherence is extremely important. Too many of the big players have too large of leaps between reasoning gaps with not enough padding. Which will make a would be customer raise his eyebrow and buck the reasonable trust.
