If you want bookmarkers, ditch the popups. If you want to stay in this business and be successful in the long run, lose the popups.

Are you speaking as a link list owner or a free site builder? I can understand a link list wanting bookmarkers and keeping surfers happy and coming back, but once a surfer leaves my free site to check out a sponsors tour, do you really think he might come back to my site, and still be a possible sale? IMHO if he clicks and goes to the sponsor's tour, he's already seen it and won't come back to my site and click a link again to go see what he's already seen. Just my opinion but I would love to hear what others think.
