A Discussion On Blind Links

Ann Omness · 2005-08-31, 02:01 PM

My two pet peeves in regard to blind links:

1) Sponsor banners that include thumbs the same size as the gallery thumbs. Brunob comes to mind. They look and feel and smell like blind links to me. I used to email the webmasters using these, but they don't respond and continue to submit the same thing, so now I just delete the sites when I see them.

2) The use of a script that hides the link URLs in the status bar. Effectively, that makes ALL the links blind links. I'm not willing to navigate around a site that does that, and I don't expect my traffic to. Site deleted.
