We did it! Total Motorcycle is now POPUP FREE!!!!

Wowzers, you might want to read that again...

Popup free!

There you go, I wanted to make the site popup free for almost 10 years now and today, it is.

You shouldn't be bothered by popups or popunders anymore.

Thanks for your support by clicking on the IntelliTXT text ad links I put up a month ago and for using our link to eBay as well.

I also got a donation this month (April) and that helps too. If you are happy with having NO POPUPS, love the site, think it's helpful, useful and friendly, PLEASE CONSIDER donating even $2.

See what you get and how to donate here: walloffame.htm

Enjoy the new popup free site!! Well, 99.9933% free (which means you have less than 1 in a 10,000 chance of getting a popup because it takes time for them to work themselves out, so if you do, it's a lucky charm day for you!).

Please let me be the first to reply and say that I'm really happy the popups and popunders are gone. As I said, I really wanted to get rid of them and I'm glad I was able to do that today. It's taken a long time to reach this goal and be able to do it but it's done and we are POPUP/UNDER free now.

WOOHOOOO!

To be honest, I'm worred about the loss of revenue from loosing them, but I'm hoping that people will visit more to the site and find the site even more enjoyable than ever...and in turn click on the IntelliTXT ads, use our eBay links and visit our sponsors. Total Motorcycle was never setup to be profit first, but to support motorcyclists and motorcycling first. So ads are shown only because they need to be and I do my best to keep them at a minimum.

I know having no popups will increase the enjoyment of the site and even I will visit more often (if that's possible!) haha.

This is a banner moment, enjoy!

I'm really happy about this, I was always tempted to get turn on my pop-up blocker or something. But since I really care about TMW I didn't want to ever interfere with revenue.

This is a great step in non-intrusive advertising

If you get rid of those annoying BowFlex ads, I will LIVE here.

They must be geo-targeted to the area you live in, I don't get them at all. (I think you mean they are the text link ads then?).

Maybe there is a huge demand for Bowflex machines in your city?

Mike,

Pop-unders never stopped me, but I am happy they are gone.

Thanks for supporting the site buy visiting the TEXT ADS and also the banner ads if you find something interesting to look at. Every bit helps and is greatly appreciated.
