on a company blog that contains a company announcement they want distributed to announce how great their company is they're running google ads? How desperate for money are they? People actually do this? http://screensnapr.com/e/Osu5tL.png http://screensnapr.com/e/hmWFaV.png

Sorry, I think that's a wordpress "feature". We're reskinning our blog. The revenue generated from the company blog isn't really what's keeping us afloat.
