They also, well, kinda can act like it. The idea originates primarily with promoting things that are NOT on-site - you wouldn't really want to use the ads to advertise questions within the site for example, because they're already on the site. It's largely meant to show off stuff off-site. However, the bounty "ad" is a very popular one on many sites, and the communities enjoy using it. | |

They're meant for any visitors of your site, so the general idea is for your community to share off things they think will be relevant or useful to people that would visit your site. The idea behind community process is relevance - rather than have random stuff from some outside group of advertisers, it's people from the community giving to their peers, after approval by them. Does this help? | |
| Feb 1, 2016 at 17:57 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | This is the same text that appears on other metas regarding community promotion ads, and frankly, it doesn't make much sense to me. I didn't really understand it at all until I looked at the 2015 CPA meta thread on Mathematics.SE, and only by example, and it still isn't totally clear exactly what these are. The 2015 CPAs for Math seem to be mainly helpful links, so I'm not sure exactly what is being "promoted" or why they are called "ads". One of them just shows the number of active bounties on Math.SE. | |
