My forums contain ads, mostly Google Adsense ads. However, I frequently hear from forum ads, community managers and leaders that ads are not good for forums, as they kill user interaction. Well, I do understand that intrusive ads like pop-ups, flashy banners, and autoplay videos, can drive users away. These ads slow down site load time and make navigation difficult. Overloading a forum with too ads may lead to a poor user experience. What about having a few banner ads on header, footer or side bars?
