Google adwords double cost

When you search in google and the search results come up, on the right hand side you see websites that pays for the privilege to be there. Meaning they are using google adwords which is a paid for service. If someone clicks on one of those ads the owner of that site have to pay anywhere from say about 15 cents to several dollars for that one click.

I was just clicking on one of those ads and I was redirected to a totally unrelated page. SO I had to close that window and click on the ad again to get to the page I wanted to go to. (Redirects Solved)

That site’s owner had to pay for two clicks for my one visit, due to the redirect google or some other company has implemented here in the UK. (those two clicks for my one visit might cost him 10 dollars as far as I know)

In the UK when you browse the web you are most likely will be redirected by google to a different page. ( I don’t know if other countries suffer from this redirection issue or not) It’s annoying as hell but can’t do nothing about it. But if you are one of the websites or companies using adwords to advertise your services or site, it could easily cost you double.

Amazing!

I bet not to many advertisers thought of that. I bet they are annoyed after reading this. I know I would be.

This is not me having a virus on my computer because it’s a new installation of Xp on it. This is definitely a google or ISP provider issue.

I wonder if anyone else is experiencing these redirects outside of Britain.
