Popup for Wordpress Blogs This one Works

Yes Pop-ups are a bit in your face but they do help when it comes to building your list.

Over the last six months I’ve bought all kinds of pop-up solutions for Wordpress.

I’ve spent way too much time playing around with loads of paid pop-up software and yesterday I gave up after buying and testing a crap product which I’m going to do a review on later.

The plug-in name is “Wordpress Popup Scheduler” and it’s worth downloading and testing on your site. I’m running it here and it works great.

After logging into his blog I noticed something in his footer that should not be there…
Links with names of pharmaceutical drugs that go to drug sites.

I had to look up the words in the footer to find out what they meant.

Here is a screen shot:

How did this happen??

Well, there are people giving away Wordpress themes because they can get a back link to their site if others download and use their themes. (This is fine but not the above example and themes like that should be avoided.)
