It probably does lead customers off the site if they haven't got an ad-blocker installed - either way though Zazzle makes money via the sale on their site or via the sale from the offsite ad.

It's their business to do as they see fit.

I doubt if they'll link out to another company where you can personalize the product so we still have a small chance to make a sale

Welcome to Zazzle!

Hi Sara, Thanks for the welcome! 😊 Yeah they make money from the ads...it's an interesting business model for an e-commerce site.🤔

True in some/most points. But I had posted a screenshot some time ago here on the boards of an ad leading to a customizable fanny pack for under two bucks. So that bothered me too at that time . Nonetheless I’m excited to be here because even if I don’t sell a lot (or at all) I learn plenty which has value to me personally.
