As affiliate marketers become more and more numerous across the vast expanse of the WWW (worldwide web), competition grows more fierce for consumers’ hard earned dollars. Continually striving to be eye-catching, attention-grabbing, and ultra creative, affiliates are exploring new avenues and advertising techniques to stay atop the affiliate marketing food chain. While pop-up advertising has been around for over a decade, pop-under advertisements are now being used in abundance, allowing for greater returns than ever for affiliates and their merchants alike.
Almost every web user at one time or another has become annoyed with the pesky pop-up advertisements that plague their browsers, flooding their bandwidth and making loading and viewing so dreadfully slow. Most of today’s browsers allow users to simply push a button within their preferences section or set their security in a way so that pop-ups are blocked altogether. New advertising technology has allowed advertisers the ability to bypass this and still get their message through to the consumer, but most online customers have become accustomed to closing pop-up advertisements immediately as they open, sort of instinctively and reflexively, stifling any attempt at promotion whatsoever. Research has shown that though annoying, pop-up advertising is extremely effective, explaining why it is still employed by many online advertisers. But research has also shown that pop-under advertisements are even more effective, allowing affiliate marketers to increase their dividends through more commission generating clicks. While consumers have begun to close pop-up advertisements in the blink of an eye, pop-under ads load underneath the current window that is in view and lie in wait for when the would-be customer closes that window. In this way, pop-under advertisements provide little or no interference to the viewer. With new advances in pop-under technology, it is possible for repeat viewers to be skipped by the pop-under advertisement, only being triggered once weekly or another predetermined amount. In this way, a viewer that has already viewed the advertisement because they follow your affiliate site or subscribe to your feeds will not be forced to view advertisements on every visit. Many of today’s affiliate programs allow its member affiliates to choose among many types of advertisements, including a wide variety of types of pop-under advertisements specifically. Choosing a program which offers the use of high return pop-under advertisements can help make your affiliate efforts successful and profit generating for both yourself and your affiliate merchants.
