So which do you prefer from these 125X125 badges?


Because of it's standard format, I always prefer this badge size as compared to skycrapers or banners. Now, Adgitize launched the new affiliate image but I have to admit, it does not appeal to me that much... If I, as a publisher and advertiser, was not so happy about it, how could I get more referrals by using that badge? Of course I appreciate Adgitize' effort and I love it how they innovate things and improve processes but I wish they could be more professionally artistic. :) Or probably more resourceful.

There are actually lots of Adgitize members who are good in designing buttons and badges, why not hold a banner-making contest? One-month free advertising in the Adgitize Network would be a great reward.

A good banner must convey the message clearly. It must be easy to read and understand. Colors, texts and alignment must have harmonious relationships.

PS.
Of those four badges above, the third one is obviously my favorite. CLUE: Left sidebar!

After pointing out Blogerzoom's redirection, some bloggers still complain about the popups they're getting from this site. I'm using Mozilla Firefox and popups are being blocked so I'm not getting them. But when I modified the settings, I also get the dreaded HYPERPROMOTE POP UPS! Yes, they are annoying!

It took me several hours to figure out where it is coming from. I only have few Ad blocks here and I trust each of them because they've been there for so long. Or maybe, this issue just came to my attention too late.

The advertising networks present in this blog are:
1. Adgitize
2. Entrecard
3. Bidvertiser

Once again, I did not suspect any of them. The first thing that I've taken out while trying to isolate the issue is the Christmas Countdown Widget. Next is Chatbox. But then the hyperpromote pop up is still there.

I have no issues with Adgitize and Entrecard on my other blogs. The only difference between this blogspot blog to my self-hosted blogs in terms of advertising networks is BIDVERTISER. And this is the only one which is suffering from that pop up. I contact Bidvertiser support to verify if the pop up is coming from them. I mentioned hyperpromote on my support ticket but they did not directly reply to that question and emailed me instead:

You can disable pop ups by managing your account and changing your Preference.

There you go! I disabled the pop up ads by switching the radio button to NO.

Are you still getting hyperpromote pop ups in this blog? Is your blog giving you the same random pop up? Check the advertisers's codes on your blog and you should be able to point it out.
