Demographics is the study describing groups by average characteristics. It’s used extensively in political campaigns and in Marketing and Advertising. In politics, we want our canidates to lie and give the average views that will get the elected regardless of what the hack believes in. It’s just this type of thinking that got us into Iraq. (Post 9/11 everyone wanted revenge so we started a couple of wars with Moslem Nations.)
In Advertising, if we understand our groups, we can advertise and sculp our message. I mean why pay to advertise in the Washington Post if it’s cheaper to advertise on teens.biz or the-hun.ws which attracts a similar audience. There are other economic reasons. Big Business can’t advertise booze or cigarettes on Nickelodeon TV but if they find a demographic match with hotteens.com, they can advertise their poison to horny young me on that Web Site and not violate the laws.
Take note, all the descriptions are from quantcast.com and also take note that my (fatsavage.wordpress.com) target audience of educated, young and affluent people doesn’t match any of the really nasty kiddie porn sites. The nasty ones are at the top of the list and the ones that are actually wholesome but will send you to jail because of their URL names are at the bottom.
