wow, this kid certainly has mental problems. not sure if he's bitter for being on the internet and never making much money, imagining that all of his betters had to cheat to get there, bitter about getting caught jerking off to porn, or is just religiously repressed and thinks he's going to burn in hell.

using blind linked thumbs and popups on my SE traffic, i still do earn much more more $ then proving them with free pics and console free pages.
Trying to be good friend of surfer who wants everything for free isnt always the most successful way.
But then again, i am not prisoner of TGP "charitable and nonconsole" mentality, giving everything for free with hope that one of 10000 surfers will buy something

you should also download that javascript file and put it on your own.
here is, how to do that:


Step one copy the code
Step two Download the js file that the code points to
Step 3 open the js file in your notepad and change the URL to where you want to exit to(Only the url leave everything else as is or it won't work!)
Step 4 upload the js file to your server and change the url in the code to that location
Step 5 paste that code on your page like you would with regular exit code.

i copy and paste this info from that board...

The internet is not free. It costs money to keep a site online. The best way to make money to support your site is thru popups and exits. While the surfer may *like* to not see popups, he'd also like to not see commercials on TV.
Well, just as free TV would go away without commercials, a good bit of the internet will go away without popup ads and exits.
You see, in the end, the surfer doesn't win by blocking popups, they're just dumb enough to *think* they do.


:thumbsup I am sick of talking to friends and other people that aren't webmasters who seem to think that running a site doesn't cost any money. Why should I let them suck my money out, trade my contetnt on p2p things,cost me money via bandwith, etc and not try to sell them something in exchange or at the very least get a little something from their visit (traffic exchange, etc). Sure if they are chained pop ups with attempted downloads that may overstep things but I am slightly sick of people acting as if it is a personal insult if you try to sell them something they are trying to take for free.

If they have hit the close or back button then they don't want what you have to offer & won't be back, thats the idea behind EXITS! You offer them something that they do want, if it didn't work exits wouldn't be used, it does work and makes it possible for affilates to earn $35 per trial instead of $25.

So if you are in a mall and walk into a store and don't buy anything, a clerk has the right to follow you out of the store and shove advertisments in your face? Would you EVER go back to that store again?

hmmmm, considering 100s of millions of dollars a year are made thru popup sales, you have no point. your analogy is a poor one.
If people were that offended by popups, they wouldn't buy from them.

Have any % on how many people that have thier pop-up blockers over-ridden turn into paying customers? I would say the % is VERY VERY small.

If someone WANTED pop-ups they wouldn't have a pop-up blocker now would they?

no put all the same a customer can't come in and demand they take down all their promotional posters and upsell materials just because he thinks he shouldn't have to look at them.

I'm not at all supportive of browser hijacking, etc but one or two popups, sorry but I am not a charity.

see surfer, this is why you don't understand.
your example is meaningless (again)
let me dumb it down so you understand.
If you own a store that sells magazines would you allow people to come in and read them for free? No you wouldn't. If the only payment you charged was for them to look at an advertisement, it wouldn't appear to be unreasonable. It would only seem unreasonable if someone gave you blinders and told you you didn't have to see the advertisement (after all, those magazines should be free, screw the fact that they cost the store owner money). The store owner would then have the right to slap the blinders off your face when you entered his store.

Now if thats not dumbed down enough for you, replace "store" with "website"
"magazine" with "content" and "advertisement" with "popup"
(that's about as dumbed down as I can go)

It's not up to the surfer what they want when they go to someone's website. It's up to the site owner. if you don't like popups, don't go to the site. its that simple unless you're there to steal content.

No they are not and I was not suggesting that.

But they are all exploitive - as are popups.

It's the mindset of forcing someone vs earning their interest/patronage.

The internet has incredible potential, but the one complaint I hear again and again has to do with sites which 'assault' their visitors.

Many web surfers admit they are afraid/reluctant to use the internet solely because of this.

Tools have been developed to help protect them.

And, in the spirit of 'if we want your opinion, we will give it to you', 'assaulters' are bent on breaking these tools.

I think people are getting away from the real issue here:

There's nothing wrong with pop-ups, selling thru exit consoles, etc.

The issue is when someone has specifically set up their system to block such things, if (essentially) hacking their system to force something which they have specifically made clear that they don't want/object to gets "shoved in their face".

Listen up MORON. What are you RIGHT about? Or what am I wrong about? WTF is your deal? Try keeping up with the POINT of this thread. I do not believe that anyone( at least not I ) questioned whether pop-ups make money or not. That's not even WTF we are talkling about. It's about the ethics of popping them up when a surfer specifically has it set up to where he doesn't want them. The fact that you can make money doing that doesn't make it right to do it. Of course I suspect that the word ETHICS is not in your vanacular.

When you walk onto a public street (internet) and your sensitive eyes stumble upon an advertisement is that FORCING you to see something?

I'm thinking yes...you are walking around with your eyes open...

Moving your eyes away from the ads so as to not see them is akin to closing a popup down, I'm not talking about CJ style shit here, let's not get off on that tangent...

Listen try READING the anology I presented. Going into a store = going to a website. Walking down the street does NOT = shopping or surfing a website. Do you aimlessly wander around the net? Um no.

Of course. And we do have our preferred channels (some of this is influenced by what they offer and how).

BUT, when I change channels on my TV, it does NOT switch back to the channel I came from or to another one I never even asked for.

That's a big difference between TV and unwanted popups.

Both have ads, banners, etc. But you can still change the channel without fear of being bushwacked.

so then you're going to continue to dodge the question of you having any experience.
I figured that, surfer.

now onto your inability to understand ethics.
It is unethical to go to someone's website take what they have to offer, and block their means to make money off of it.

this is what you dopey surfers don't understand.

wrong, surfer. the real issue is someone taking what your website has to offer and then blocking your means to pay for it.

your dopey argument is the same as saying a business has no right to charge you for merchandise if you can find a way around paying for it.
