Blogging Popup - Pros and Cons

Blogging Popup
Is It a Good Idea
To Use One?

Every blogger who has managed to raise a blog to decent traffic level the idea of multiple profit streams becomes vital.

One profit stream is not enough at all. AdSenses are ok, but clicks will not necessarily take place, or CTR can be very small. Affiliate clicks (for example, ClickBank) can give great money, but to get them your clicker must purchase something - which is also an issue to take place, but not necessarily.

Due to this CPM programs that pay for impressions become an option. One of the ways for CPMs is showing popups. Let's review the advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of blogging popup.

Simple - money. Money which is paid irrespectively of whether ads are clicked or not. Money that can be made even on the traffic which is not that targeted.

Disadvantages of blogging popup.

Most of the blog readers hate popups. Or at least feel bad about them. That is why with blogging popups you must always balance between profits and not killing the readability of your blog. By the way, modern blogging popups have a feature of building specific scenarios for popup display - for example, you can set to show popup to the person when he/she comes to your blog for the first time, and when this person makes another visit - popup is not displayed.

That is why if you are going to use blogging popup, please choose the latest versions - so that your visitors do not get tired of these popups. Otherwise the desire to make more money can kill the milk cow - your traffic.

For the example of how blogging popup scenarios can be done please read this post about blogging popup scenarios.
