What is Pop-Under in Affiliate Marketing?
Pop-Under is an ad format that appears as a pop-up window in a browser. It is somewhat similar to a Pop-Up but less aggressive and does not annoy the end-user.
Verticals for Pop-Under and Approaches
The Pop-Under format is highly versatile. It can be used across all traditional arbitrage verticals. For us, these include dating, gaming and betting, utilities, and e-commerce. The format works well in any niche if you choose the right approach:
1. Keep it simple. The landing page and the ad creative should look very simple, not annoy the user, and the message should be immediately clear.
2. Don't forget testing. Launch the ad on multiple landing pages to filter out the poor performers.
3. Experiment with the funnel. Warm up the audience through pre-landers, mix and match combinations and page content.
4. Segment the audience by devices. Separate mobile and desktop.
Advantages of Pop-Under

1. High Visibility. Pop-Under ads are guaranteed to be seen by the user as they open in a new window.
2. Non-Intrusiveness. Since Pop-Under opens underneath the active window, it does not disrupt the user's activity, making it less annoying.
3. Effectiveness. Pop-Under ensures a high Click-Through Rate (CTR) and Conversion Rate (CR), making it one of the most effective ad formats.
4. Low Cost: The cost of Pop-Under ads is significantly lower than other formats. The payment is CPM-based and is about half a dollar for Tier-3 countries and around a dollar for all others. Of course, the final cost depends on the settings and the offer itself.
But there are also drawbacks
1. Blocks: In most cases, search engines place blocks on sites with Pop-Under. Our format is not blocked by search engines. The reason is that our moderation screens the content of such ads and does not pass anything that may be considered a violation of the rules.
2. Bots: If you work independently and not through an ad network like ours, you may encounter a large number of bots and low-quality traffic. Filtering is done through trackers.
Special Features of Pop-Under in MyBid
Regarding the Pop-Under format, MyBid offers something unique: it is completely safe for search engines. This is achieved through thorough analysis and adaptation of moderator patterns.
Google-friendly. MyBid has conducted multiple analyses of strikes from Google and deciphered moderator patterns. This allows sites that have already received a strike to pass re-inspection successfully with Pop-Unders enabled. Unlike other networks that either completely disable ads for India or delay ad display in the hope that the moderator will leave the page, MyBid's Google-friendly approach minimally impacts revenue.
Yandex-friendly. MyBid has implemented a two-step verification process for wap-click ads. Initially, everything is checked manually, followed by an automatic check. This ensures high ad quality and prevents moderation issues.
Special Opportunities for Publishers
