Because advertisers aren't willing to pay for click-throughs?

Because there's effectively an infinite amount of advertising space on the
web, unlike on TV or in the real world?

Because web advertising isn't as effective as other forms of advertising?

I suspect that web advertising is largely a buyer's market.
