Techcrunch now displaying a holding page with ads before showing the article
- mauriciob 16y agoI believe it only shows up once. I've seen it the first time I went to TechCrunch today and now it isn't displaying anymore. Also, it appears to show only while the page is loading.
- thehodge 16y agoI could put up with the amounts of ads on the website but this is just getting silly now, and to make matters worse, the link they tweeted went to a 404 page (it happens sometimes for me and I guess its something to do with the CDN not caching for europe quick enough)
- lachlanj 16y agohow painful! looks like AOL is making it pay for itself...
- mariust 16y agoI estimate that 10% of the users will go to other sources for information, because this type of ads are really frustrating. If I war an advertiser this is one type of ad that I will not want in my ad campaign, the users try to skip it as soon as possible, so in return I don't really get the result I would like to (conversion).
- mariust 16y agoIt's good to know that someone there still thinks this ad is going to drop visitors: http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/25/real-blogs-dont-have-interstitial-ads/ http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/25/real-blogs-dont-have-inters... Thanks for trying to remove the ad.
