I have no idea what this article is about nor will I ever, but I encourage any front-end web designer | developer to take a look because this site is a shining example of what not to do.
Upon loading the page I was pretty much instantly distracted from reading the article by two incredibly intrusive boxes taking over the space and blocking me from reading the article.
I closed the tab without hesitation and won't be reading the article.
Take this for what you will, but please note that I'm not being petulant here. This is truly a textbook demonstration of a bad web user experience.
- smoyer 12y agoI didn't see this behavior on my iPad ... Perhaps a broken "mobile first" site?
- lordbusiness 12y agoPossibly; I tried to read on a computer.
- onion2k 12y agoThis is only a shining example of what not to do if the popup isn't working. If it's driving away 50% of users but capturing the email addresses of the other 50% then it's absolutely brilliant and everyone should implement one immediately. The job of a website is to effectively help a business grow. That isn't the same thing as making everyone who visits the page happy.
