New ad type 1 week trail

#1 Unread post by totalmotorcycle »

Hi everyone,

One of my advertisers (Monster) is trying out a "full screen ad" for a week. I'm sure you have seen this ad type before, it's a full screen ad with the link "skip ad to continue to next screen click here or wait 15 seconds".

Do you mind the ad? Is it really bad/offensive? Do you prefer popups to this type of ad? Any feedback is helpful. :D

The revenue the ad produces will go directly to reducing popups on the site.

Thanks gang!

Hey Mike, the ad is fine I guess - I still hate popups setting tracking codes on the computers. Especially that I'm not using my own comp (mom's school laptop).

A spin off suggestion there about the vendor page ad, do you think there is enough interest from vendors to run a space rental ($5-10 mth to advertise) on a specific forum - like vendors, group buys, specials, etc? How about direct link ads (not popups) in a margin somewhere?

Just thoughts :)
