AdBlock, more news and discounted traffic!

Dear PopAds Advertiser, We have a bunch of news to share about PopAds advertising network: We will soon be launching anti-adblock code for our publishers which should open a significant stream of new traffic. Yet, we understand that some of our advertisers might not want to get such traffic. Because of that, we have offered a new option(called "AdBlock") in campaign settings where you can decide if you want to receive traffic from visitors using AdBlock or not. We will be offering anti-adblock code to our publishers in few days so make sure to set your existing campaigns correctly as soon as possible. Also, be aware that traffic from AdBlock users will have a non-standard referrer. In order to bypass AdBlock, we will be frequently changing adserving domains, hence you will be seeing random referrers instead of the usual serve.popads.net. Warning: if you use a well known tracker domain or subdomain(not full custom domain) then it is possible it is on the AdBlock blacklist. In such case, the traffic will be blocked AFTER leaving our adserving system resulting in loss of impressions. To check your landingpage, install uBlock Origin extension and try to open your landingpage URL(same as entered in PopAds panel) to see if it is blocked. If it is blocked, do not buy Adblock traffic. Finally, we have already added [ADBLOCK] dynamic URL tag that is set to 1 if the user has AdBlock and 0 otherwise. In June we have been alerted that Google Analytics has stopped counting our traffic. After over a month of contacting Google Analytics support, Google has finally admitted that they are deliberately filtering our traffic and there is nothing they will do to fix it. No reasons were provided either. In order to resolve this problem, we have added Referrer blanking option in campaign settings. When Google Analytics does not see that the traffic is coming from PopAds.net, it is counted correctly. If Google Analytics is an important tool for you, please enable Ref Blanking or contact Google Analytics support to complain. We are actively working on improving our platform performance and functionality. In coming days you will see a significant improvement on loading times of WebsiteID Details page which we have identified to be the slowest part of our system. Apart of that, we are working on IP range targeting as the next high priority feature to be released(hopefully within 1-3 weeks). Finally, we would like to bring to your attention that rates have been fairly low recently and it is a great time to get some discounted traffic. We have huge volumes, especially in TR, BR, MX, available at very low bids. Traffic in other countries is also available at lower than usual rates. See you soon at [PopAds.net]!
