Google Wants To Fix Mobile Sites From Annoying Pop-Ups


If you’ve even been on the internet, then you probably know that pop-ups are annoying and irritating. Sometimes, when you are forced to subscribe before even seeing a word on a website, only to find out that it wasn’t what you were looking for. Google wants to fix this. Starting on January 10th, 2017, Google’s mobile search results will downplay sites with “intrusive” interstitials and pop-ups. It’ll accept content that asks for necessary info or takes up a “reasonable” amount of space (such as the app install banners), but “click to continue” pop-ups and first-party sales pitches won’t get Google’s favor. Hopefully this fixes the issues of pop-ups. Thoughts ?
