Come on guys, lose the bloody pop ups!

Every time I click the back button on your site it opens another window and others open windows with top lists and the like - I know it has put me off and I assume it will do so to other surfers too.

Yeah, it's taking the piss and it gives a bad impression of a site. When this happens words and expressions like downmarket, sleazy, unscrupulous and money grabbing, flash on and off in my mind. Maybe one pop-up might be acceptable - like on AVN's site, but anymore would ruin a site's credibility.

The easiest way is for surfers to get pop-up stopper from lavasoft, could be along wait for the pop-ups to go from the site.

What popups are you getting? The only popup we have for the Model of the Month page goes to the sponsoring website. In this case it is sexy-saffron.com Of course if you go back and forth to that page it will keep popping up. But we have no close out windows or anything like that. I just tested it and I went to our MoTM page, Saffron's site opened as well. No other windows opened.

If you can give me more info I would be happy to look into it.

3 examples found inside 5 minutes of starting to look at the site:

The one already mentioned above - saffron

When you click on Talent Search it opens a page for findanamateur.com. When you have clicked into Talent Search and then click back from ANY window in the site (not only talent search) that findanamateur page keeps opening.

When you click from tour 2 to continue onto tour 3 it opens a popup for amateurpages.com which in itself generates three or four more when you try and close it. This one also does the same as the one above with the back button until you close the window.

It doesnt matter what type of pop up it is or what the reason, surfers hate the things and a lot have either got software to block them or just completely ignore them. It is good for top lists and the like BUT a lot of those guys are now banning you from using pop ups to send hits to them.

Not trying to be disrespectful but as webmaster you should know about all of these and if you don't then you are not doing your job correctly.
