Questionable Sponsor/Ads

The process of writing is by no means an easy task. Jotting down the first thing that comes to your mind is easy, but writing a paper for an 'A+' requires a lot of skill and imagination, an exercise and procedure that needs undivided attention to say the least. Our quality writers from the UK and US are one of the best in the business, who have an experience of more than a decade in writing hundreds of term papers, waiting to assist you with their expertise round the clock

Unique term papers are designed to help you in your academic career and give you that extra edge to ensure you receive only top grades on every subject. Order with us to receive a non-plagiarized quality custom term paper which will be yours forever and never resold again.

You can look the other way and cling to semantics, claiming that the papers are not explicitly to be used as the customer's own paper (cheating for that "A+"), but that's obviously what they're trying to sell. Being sponsored by this organization, and having their ads on this website seems entirely wrong to me. Plagiarism not only defies our own communities' rules, but is the deadliest literary sin.

We're not in charge of what the ads that Google sells us are, so we're not trying to encourage you to cheat or anything! These ads just happen to come up. But please, PM Nate about this and he'll see what he can do about these sorts of ads.

Hm, I didn't notice any association to Google. I suppose that makes a difference, it's a shame nonetheless. I'll shoot him a PM for sure. Thanks, Snoink.

Unfortunately, that ad and the other text link ads on the front page are all handled through a site named www.text-link-ads.com. While you do have an opportunity to approve and deny ads, that period of opportunity only lasts 24 hours. If you miss that 24 hour period for whatever reason, you're stuck with the ad until either the advertiser cancels or you cancel your entire text-link-ads.com account.

As it happens, I am trying to do the latter, which is why you now see the "You too can advertise on YWS" link. But, there have been no takers thus far although I have sent inquiries to a number of companies and sites.

This may be a good time to ask for suggestions of potential advertisers to contact. Needless to say, it's somewhat difficult to find them as they need to be small enough that they'll actually notice an e-mail from me, but large enough to afford to place one on the site.
