Trying out some new ads

[Walter]

Hey guys,

I'm trying out some new ads. My goal is NOT to have any that make noise or bright flashes powerful enough to give anyone a seizure. If you see an ad like that, please let me know when and where on the page you saw it.

[Matt McGuire]

lol you mean NFLDC ads ... and yes I don't go to that site often because the ads are annoying as hell.

[Walter]

Yeah, I absolutely hate flashy, pop-up and noisy ads. We'll never have those here.

Like I said, if you guys find 'em, let me know so I can eliminate them. I'm confident there won't be any, just saying.

[Matt McGuire]

How much mroe would you make with pop ups? I bet Wright makes a ton there.

[Walter]

A good amount I think... but no amount is worth it.

[Matt McGuire]

Do you think you lose traffic? NFLDC is the most popular draft site on the internet and SW has always had annoying ads.

[Walter]

Well I'd lose some traffic... but I wouldn't want to turn some loyal readers away... I'd also not want to make it a pain in the ass to go to my own site.

yeah i just went on to the home page and got a pop up for the first time on this site

[Walter]

Huskers, that might be spyware on your computer. I have no code that would generate pop-ups. I was more concerned with audio/flashy ads.

I haven't seen any new ones yet. NFLDC's are the most annoying ever (besides a wrestling site that gives you 5 popups and redirects you every time you go to the main page).

walt, there's this awful, awful ad that is quite popular here. i see it all the time. it's got george clooney, and the guy from the office, krasinski, and then this hideous, disgusting, sorrowful blonde. ughh.

[49ersfan]

Yeah, but it isn't really flashy or filled with audio. Besides, it will be gone in a couple weeks when the movie is out of theaters.

Mozilla Firefox, the only pop-ups you get are for porn sites, and if you get those, you're probably looking at a site of low morals anyways.

I love firefox. Use AdBlock Plus and you have no ads at all.
