Open sponsor in new window or not?

Why would you be worried about that? Isn't that what we all want? "take the surfers mind of the freestuff they were looking for before" and make them pay for high quality porn .

I was just thinking that the surfer will perhaps be more interested in the paysite if it opens in the same window because he/she won´t be distracted by the original site with free stuff, but it´s possible to go "back" ofc.

I´ve been thinking of it and opening a paysite in the same window must be better than popping up a new window given that you don´t use linkcodes with exit consoles that hijacks the browser.

1. You don´t know if the surfer has an extreme popup blocker.
2. Surfers generally don´t like popups.
3. More advertising "space" if you use same window .
4. Still easy to go back.
5. Extreme clicking surfers won´t just open and close windows like mad.

There´s really nothing strange about using the same window.
