Be Daring! Promote Pops

The whole popunder phenomenon began in the 90s, and grew to have pretty bad connotations after sites of yesterday abused these one-time effective methods of promotion.

We remember these days well, and we?re sure you remember them too.

Clicking the x to close one of these windows would make 5 new ones appear, a little like this.

It seemed like a pretty good way to catch the user?s attention at the time?so some people thought.
But really, this poor practice ended up tainting the effective popunder forever.

However, today, we know better.

While the use of pops have decreased dramatically over the past decade for the aforementioned reasons, it?s important to note that they?re not dead. We believe pops just need to be put to better use.

Here?s how to get the most out of your popunders? 2015-style.

Popunders are far from dead..... good read as usual

Pops can be where it's at, as long as you don't abuse them to really annoy users. Limit how often they're served per user. Basically, if they need to hunt for an "x" button, you're fuckin' up a bit.

Exactly right. In the case of pops, good common sense rules the day (and outcome)

Well said. Also, do not allow entry or exit alert boxes on pops, if a user wants to close it, they should be able to do so by clicking your browser X, they clearly meant to close it so don't prompt them with a crappy box saying "Are you sure you wanna move away from this page, you could be fucking Chloe in 7 minutes" I mean really?

Pops are popular ad units when ad networks manage them properly. Frequency cap them so if your user comes back later, he doesn't get it again. Don't bug the shit out of your surfers
