Google and pop-under

Yes or no?

Did anybody ask google if it's ok with them to use their ads and pop-unders on the same page? ... if so ... what was their answer?
I was thinking to add adsrevenue on my website, as i've calculated that average revenue / visitor = 0.001... so i'd make probably more from the popunder thing than adsense. Do you think it's a good idea to do so? and also .. if any of you is using pop-unders on their site, which ads provider is the best you've found?

Why would you use a pop-under at all?

Cause by calculating it would make me more revenue than adsense (0.001 per impression) does .. and i won't have to depend on google and worry if they give me the 0.01 ads or 0.20 ones... i'm not sure if i'd do that that's why i'm asking for your opinions

From the AdSense Program Policies page [google.com]

....... Other types of pop-ups, pop-unders, or exit windows may be allowed, provided that they do not exceed a combined total of 5 per user session

So the answer appaers to be "maybe".

your traffic will drop like a rock. there are other ways to make the amount of money you want per visitor. explore other ad formats.

Personally I have never used popups/popunders and never will. In fact with so many people using popup blockers, their day is almost over anyways. But whether you go that route is your own decision.

I do not even see anymore pop-ups on sites since I switched to Firefox.

I am hoping by next year, most of the people online will be using updated web browsers to block the pop-ups.

I tried pop-ups a few years ago, and only made a small fraction of what I earn now from AdSense.

So the moral of the story is - Do Not Use Pop-Ups!

Yeh i guess i'll stick with AdSense and try to experiment with it for a better revenue. Tnx for the answers! ^^

I was told by Google that you can not put adsense in a popunder, however you can put a popunder on a page that displays adsense.

Hope that makes sense.
