Why is that, honestly?

Good point. One reflection though... If i understand
correctly you use the pop up to "push" something you
might as well "push" on your regular site.Right?

I too think pop ups can be effective in order to draw
attention to something specific and i definately agree
that you shouldn't over-do it.

However, there's a big difference between the
Exitexchange and ClusterTraffic-programs where another
site is being "pushed" in the new window as opposed to
just using a pop up to "highlight" something already
available on the site.

There's also, at least IMHO, a difference between pop
ups that cover the site i'm about to enter and pop ups
being displayed on my way out a.k.a exit pop ups.

We (that is ClusterTraffic) do a pop up window max.
once/user/30 minutes. We keep it very focused to a
specific topic. And yes, it's extremely effective if
done gentle.

my 2cents
