This ^^^^^^^^^ is 100% how I feel. People are creating web sites for the sole purpose of making money from advertising, and are just throwing some content on there to get spider'd in the search engines and attract viewers. They're posting links to their sites on every public portal they can get into, and are grabbing every stupid banner ad and pop up and pop over screen that they can get subscribed to, in order to collect every penny they can for clickthroughs, and often as @SquireSCA. indicated are even using tricks to get you to click on more times and more items than you would expect to have to in order to artificially increase the click rates.
In one example I know of, the text entry window is at the bottom of the screen on a chat tool, and if you're too fast to click your screen there you actually wind up clicking on the ad that's being pushed up from the bottom having been strategically timed to catch you off guard and result in a clickthrough. Then you have to click the back button, and then wait the three seconds for the ad to push the text entry field up again before starting to type, otherwise you do the whole thing over again. It's the cart before the horse.
There are others like Macktion, Android Authority and similar who are actually working to create valuable, inspiring and intriguing content, and then gain sponsorships from the manufacturers. This results in the manufacturers putting advertisement onto their sites and they receive revenue from it. This is how it should be.
