Showing ads to users that &amp;quot;read&amp;quot; large numbers is showing ads to robots which, sadly, do not convert very well.</text></comment>

In general, advertisers (should) care about impressions by unique users, not total number of views.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not sure about requiring an account to view contents though. That to me will just kill total usage across the board.</text></comment>
