Popup Windows
Popup windows were a great tool when they first
came out. They were a great way to get the attention of your visitors
quickly and effectively.
Unfortunately, some people got too carried away with their use,
and they became annoying. So annoying that companies have spent
millions of dollars developing tools that prevent popup windows
from 'popping up'.
Now, almost every Internet service provider has
some sort of popup blocker, including AOL, Earthlink, and others.
The google toolbar has a popup window blocker built in, as does
the Alexa toolbar.
With this many popup blockers out there, it is
estimated that 90% of all popup windows are caught before the
visitor ever sees them. This means, all that hard work you put
into making a nice popup window, maybe to get subscribers to your
site newsletter, are not being seen. It may not be a total loss
if you think the remaining 10% is worth it to you, but your time
may be better spent elsewhere.
