How advertising works on OmniCalculator.Space

Last Updated: January 17, 2025

💡 Why We Display Ads

Advertising revenue allows us to provide all our calculator tools completely free. We use trusted advertising partners like Google AdSense to display relevant ads. Ads help cover our hosting, development, and maintenance costs while keeping calculators accessible to everyone.

1. Types of Advertising on Our Site

📊
Display Advertisements
Banner ads, sidebar ads, and in-content ads delivered through Google AdSense. These are the most common ads you'll see on our pages.
🎯
Contextual Ads
Ads selected based on the content of the page you're viewing. For example, a mortgage calculator page may show home financing ads.
👤
Personalized Ads
If you've consented, ads may be tailored to your interests based on your browsing history and preferences (you can opt out).
📝
Sponsored Content
Articles, reviews, or recommendations that are paid for by advertisers. These are always clearly labeled as "Sponsored" or "Advertisement."

2. Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense as our primary advertising platform. Here's what you should know:

2.1 How Google AdSense Works

  • Google AdSense serves advertisements on our website
  • Ads are selected by Google's algorithms, not by us
  • Google uses various signals to determine which ads to show
  • We earn revenue when visitors view or click on ads

📋 Google's Ad Selection Process

Google may select ads based on: page content, your geographic location, your device type, and (if you've consented) your interests and browsing history. We do not control which specific ads appear on our pages.

2.2 Google AdSense Policies

Google AdSense operates under strict policies to ensure ad quality:

  • Ads must comply with Google's AdSense Program Policies
  • Certain categories of ads may be restricted (e.g., adult content, gambling)
  • Google reviews ads for compliance with its standards
  • We can block specific advertisers or ad categories if needed

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why am I seeing ads related to things I searched for elsewhere?
This is called retargeting or remarketing. Advertisers use cookies to show you ads based on your browsing history across different websites. You can limit this by adjusting your Google Ad Settings or opting out of personalized advertising through the links above.
Q: Do you control which ads appear on your site?
We use Google AdSense which automatically selects ads. We can block certain categories or specific advertisers, but we don't manually select each ad. Google uses algorithms to choose ads based on page content and user signals.
Q: Does advertising affect your calculator results?
Absolutely not. Our calculators use standardized formulas and are completely independent of any advertising relationships. We would never compromise calculator accuracy for advertising revenue. Our credibility depends on providing honest, accurate tools.
Q: Can I use an ad blocker on your site?
Yes, our calculators work whether or not you use an ad blocker. However, advertising revenue is how we keep our tools free. If you find our calculators valuable, we'd appreciate if you whitelist our site. Either way, you're welcome to use our tools.
Q: How can I tell if content is sponsored?
All sponsored content is clearly labeled with "Sponsored," "Advertisement," "Paid Partnership," or similar disclosure. If you're unsure whether something is an ad, look for these labels or check context clues like "Affiliate Link" near product recommendations.
