Free Sites and Sponsor Popups

I think you'll find LLs leaning towards decline when your sponsor has lots of pop ups too, not just the freesite. Personally, I don't mind an exit pop up from the sponsor that you can close with one click, but the ones that just keep going on and on are quite annoying

There have been a couple of threads lately about this & it looks like excessive consoles from your sponsor are a no-no. No one wants to piss off their potential bookmarkers.

All in all, I'm sticking with no console tours

Yep, agree with Ponygirl

There have been a couple threads recently about some of the sponsors getting overly agressive with their popups.

I spent a few hours the other night going back through most of my old links to one sponsor in particular who's now got consoles that pop in Firefox. Frankly they piss ME off when I get consoles and I'm running software to stop the damn things

Opinions vary, but I don't see how sponsors think that finding ways to pop consoles on surfers who specifically have tried to stop consoles is going to generate sales. But then again, I've never understood why surfers continue to buy crap from spammers either

Bottom line, I'll be avoiding sponsors or using their console free links if they have agressive consoles. Including consoles that pop in Firefox or intentionally bypass pop up blockers.

Like I've said in other threads, if I click on your sponsor and can't click back to your site in one click I won't list your submit. Notice I didn't say no popups just no browser hijacking, or resizing etc.

Consoles are just one factor in my determination but they are the biggest factor. Followed closely by overused content.
