Why would a website put up a lying link?

A website called Cheatsheet.com posted a link on Yahoo that said "10 of the greatest songs of the 1970's", but when I clicked the link it went to "10 high paying jobs that people don't want anymore". 

The subjects are not even related.

    Yeh, there seems to be a lot of this anymore on the Internet.  Obviously it's done to pique your interest.

    I can't stand the ones that promise a free service and then you find out you have to sign up for their membership.
