How often do you search the internet with a popular search engine like Google, Yahoo, or Bing? How often do you check out what your friends are doing on Facebook or Twitter? How often do you check YouTube for new cool videos? Okay, now imagine a world without these services. Can you? All of these services and many more are free to use because they are ad driven. In this article, I would like to explain how the internet has evolved and how online advertising has played a key role is its development.
What are ad driven websites?
An ad driven website is a site that is free to use, and makes a profit from online advertisers who pay for ad spaces. When you do a search on Google, for example, you will see links to the right of each results page.

These sorts of services, like search engines, essentially wiped out its competitors who charged fees for the same service.

What would the internet be like today if we didn't have online advertisers?
Without online advertising, we would have to pay monthly fees for all of the services we love. It's hard to imagine a world where search engines charge a monthly rate to use its services. Social networks like Facebook and Twitter, however, might have a more difficult time staying in business if they weren't free.
