Advertisements in LISLinks
Can't we get rid of some of the advertisements that appear in the homepage of 'LISLINKS' which do not have any relevancy with the site? These obviously irritate the viewers. Don't we have any control over these?

Sir,
You have raised a very good point. We cannot avoid the advertisement as it is the main source of fund (it will not be wrong if i say that it is the single source at this moment). At this moment of time, we have to spend Rs. 7K each month for this site. Again I dont display advertisement over www.oajse.com site (thought perviously it was a sponsored project, now it is dependent on LIS Links). The earning from this website helps to run the www.oajse.com website as well.
You cannot stop the advertisement at this moment. However we are hopeful that in LIS Links 3.0 we would be able to control/customise some of this.
Again, the advertisement that are visible to you depends on the cookies stored on your computer [mainly interest based and then subject based (related to the LIS Links content)]. For example, if you are visiting shopping related website recently then such other types of advertisement will appear for you. If you search for flight recently then Ibibo, make my trip, or such other advertisement will appear for you.
You can control some of the ads by deleting some of your cookies or history.
I hope I able to clarify all your points. If you have any other query kindly let me. I will be happy to help.

Dear Khan, are you saying that if a member post a discussion it should immediately appear over the website? If it is, then we are very much sorry, we cannot enable this as there are lots of spammer enter into this site daily and they will destroy this website in a day.
However you are right, I should delegate some of the administrative power to others. However that member should log in to this website daily at least for 10 minutes and he/she should have sufficient time to learn about administrating a social website.
