I think people relate certain companies as “highbrow” or “lowbrow”, or as popular or in the loser lane of pop culture, so the pedigree of who markets on your page could help or hurt. Someone who is well established, like Geico (for instance), would even lend credence to a site – that they believe enough people hit it to make an ad worthwhile there. Some little guy no one ever heard of would have the opposite effect.
A site with no marketing at makes people think, aahh, this is a site that stands on it’s own – doesn’t need “help” to survive. Or they think it’s “purely” educational or informational.
An advertisement can be a use tool for reader to find what they are looking for.
I dont think so as long as you have good content and you have the adds set up in a way that looks nice. Check out for some great info on this topic.
