I'm a moderator for the forum, and I agree. The pop-under is extremely annoying for those of us who are already long-time Pelican buyers.
I have spent thousands of dollars at Pelican. Completely aside from my position as moderator, I'm offended daily that Pelican Parts finds it necessary to descend to the depths of other Web advertisers with an unwanted window spawn.
Whereas in the earlier part of the year, popups and pop-unders were considered the status quo, it's become quite apparent in other e-commerce vendors that the popup or pop-under ad drives away more business than it attracts.
There's a simple test. Go to
www.amazon.com or
www.ebay.com. Chances are you've heard of these sites. Do any of them spawn unwanted windows?
And aren't they some of the most popular, profitable, customer-focused websites in the business?
I'll leave the answer to the question with Wayne.
