Just wanted to drop a note that it looks like that the PopUp Blocking, now available in any popular browser, takes heavily effect.

I recently checked statistics from the past three months and I noticed that paid impressions from popups have decreased more than 60 %.

In my calculation and looking at the accounts which will come next month, the Warp2Search revenue has also been decreased on 50 %. PopUps have made more than 60 % of the monthly revenue genereated by this website.

Increasing some other ad formats, which are not that heavily blocked visitors, does not helped that much to prevent the decreasing revenue.

The only think I was scared of, that site looks a bit to "overloaded" with ads.

Telling in numbers it means that I have to take round about 200 Euros out of my own pocket to pay for websites server hosting / services and bandwith and placed more ugly ads to do not pay more than needed out of my pocket.

I just wanted to say thank you for the support, we will see how it s going on with Warp.

Now open up a :beer: have a party that you have won the battle and start blaming me. :knife:

Sincerly

hmmm
those text related ads are OK ...
and I got this full screen ad again which is also Ok since it does only come once per ?????

time for W2Spayed

once day per User.

is there any other way to help/support W2S?
i mean , webspace, or hosting or something?

but like mertsch said
Text Ads are ok, i like them more than full screens
ok fully will give more money, but more small ads on all edges or something are ok for me


mhh...pop up blocking sucessfull...

Weren't you guys going to run a sort of membership version of the website for a small fee?

I'd be willing to pay or even donate (like http://www.totalfark.com), but no way will I ever disable pop-up blocking, sorry but nothing besides maybe flash ads with sound piss me off more while browsing...
