Is Advertisement harmful for the reputation of a Blog?

I have been blogging for last 2 years and recently I have applied Google Adsense on my website. I doubt that advertisement may distract visitor and harm the reputation of my website in the long run. What do  you think friends? is advertisement fine?

Server costs money. Internet connection costs money. Electricity costs money. Readers don't just go to a single website. They know website runs ads as a tradeoff for getting good quality content for free. The only thing harming you blog is bad content and bad website design. That's it.

I disagree. I do believe that advertisement deters the people like me. If given a choice of two websites--one with advertisement and one without-- I will be selecting the one withour advertisement.

Hi Sorcerer, Thanks for your feedback. Recently I have completely changed the theme, domain name and web design of my blog. Have you visited my site lately? Can you specifically point out the harmful elements so that I can improve. Thanks.

In fact I noticed that Adsense somehow increases visitors Tongue out

Let's see, I have placed Google Adsense on my site and saw some reduction in the web traffic that's why I asked. Thank You Vijay

Satyendra your ad placements are all wrong and overlapping content. Get them fixed from somebody who has that knowledge

Now the issue is fixed. I have put one ad on the top of the page and others 2 on the both sides of the blog. 

Things seem to be moving forward . thanks
