Take it down a notch?

Lots of sites sell things, which is enough reason to make those sites. Millions of sites are representing businesses (restaurant etc). No, the web isn't going away because joe shmoe can't put up ads. Its so cheap to put up a website anyway, folks do it for many reasons.

How do you think those people sell? Or their customers find them? Where do people search for sites representing businesses?

The Software industry would retract almost to the point of death relative to its current size without ads.

I surely never follow ads. Most sites I find by word-of-mouth I think?

Good for you, you can go ahead and prop up the industry with your word of mouth.
