| No Giant Pop-Ups, Please!
Everyone loves little pop-ups. They are handy and helpful. You
can sign up for a newsletter, download a free e-book, sign up
for a mini email course, do a little quiz, enter a contest ...
and so on. These wizard promoters usually pop up in the corner
of a webpage and are not much bigger than a notepad.
Giant pop-ups are another matter altogether.
These pop-ups practically fill the whole screen when they load
up and completely obstruct the view of the webpage. They are
often filled with graphics and text and links and you name it.
Giant pop-ups come through like a power surge. They shock you
for a second. After they load up, sometimes your web-browser
stops functioning. For example, a giant pop-up can inhibit the
"Favorites" button. Until you remove the pop-up, this function
remains frozen.
Giant pop-ups are not a "user-friendly" form of online
marketing. Annoying a person to this degree can cause a "failed
sale". This is the very worst thing that can happen when you are
trying to do business.
So why are giant pop-ups being used if they make a site LOSE
their valuable online business?
I guess it is one of the mysteries of Internet Marketing that
needs to be quickly solved.
Many fine web hosts are losing their respect daily, due to giant
pop-ups. They are probably losing valuable clients as well. No
amount of commission that is received from the sponsors of giant
pop-ups can possibly compensate for this irreparable loss.
What is the solution to this problem?
Place conditions on the use of pop-ups.
* pop-ups must only be a maximum of 5" X 5" in size
* pop-ups must offer an immediate promotion
* pop-ups must NOT contain a link to another site
* pop-ups must load in a corner of a webpage
It is important to immediately deal with this issue, because
many websites might be losing a considerable portion of their
"respectable" clientele.
Also, little pop-ups might end of getting thrown out one day due
to a possible overall ban on ALL pop-ups. This would not be a
good thing, since little pop-ups are super promoters.
When it comes to pop-ups, say "Yes" to the little ones, but "No"
to the giant ones.
