Question 1 • NC-Foundations of Information Technology

Which of the following is true about sponsored links? (select all that apply)

Answer
A
Sponsored links are not listed on the same page as organic links.
B
Companies have paid Google to display sponsored links.
C
Sponsored links want to sell you something.
D
Sponsored links are judged by Google to be as good as the organic links it shows.

Explanation

Sponsored links are advertisements: companies pay Google to have them displayed, so B is true. They commonly promote a product or service, which makes C true. Sponsored links can appear alongside organic search results, so A is false, and they are ads rather than links Google has judged as good as organic results, so D is false.
