EToys To Spend Big on Advertising
from the not-dead-yet dept
Despite the article posted earlier today about the uselessness of some dot com advertising, EToys is making another go of it. They're launching a new ad campaign designed to show that they are a viable business. While I'm not sure that will do it, it does bring up an important point. It really doesn't make sense to write off all internet retailers. The important thing is to see how most of them respond to whatever crisis they're facing, and see if they can pull through it.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
