I think that advertisement on Nostr (if it scales accordingly) is going to be really different from normie social media advertisement. It is without a doub going to be more ethical and there will be more power in the hands of the consumer/user than in the hands of the investor/advertiser. Which can be a good thing, but not for every brand I imagine. ๐Ÿ’œ
Advertising could work well if the incentive is there for the user to read the advertisement. Ie instead of the advertiser paying the platform to splay the ad and expose the user to it, how about they pay the user that read the ad some sats. I think this could transform ads but on a long enough timeline it could transform companies themselves because if youโ€™re paying people to check out your product or service, it better be good.
Every content is advertising. People have different motivations to watch ads/content. Today, most people watch advertisements because itโ€™s forced on them. In future: people watch it voluntarily. If its good. If itโ€™s not good, it wonโ€™t be seen.
I'd say it can work if that someone put some work in effective non intrusive self advertising. Good products will be recommended to others by the costumers and that's how it should be. I'm sick of endless adds on the internet and I'm probably not alone not give a damn about the ads anymore. The recipe is good quality products always sell themselves. Even on Nostr where it's recommended by your web of trust circle.
The beautiful thing about Nostr is thereโ€™s a place for everything here. Anything that can be built will be built and anything that people want will eventually be made. I think the creators will come slowly but surely as people are tired of playing someone elseโ€™s game to get views and ad revenue. Thereโ€™s something on Nostr for everyone and itโ€™s only a matter of time until they find it.
