12 reasons why I hit the "Show next page" button directly

Social bookmarking websites are great. They help you spread the word of your blog, website or article and you can discover new ones. Personally, I like StumbleUpon the best. I like to stumble over the net, giving away many "Thumb up".

However, there are always websites that I come across when stumbling, that I just have to give a "thumbs down", or just directly navigate away from. Why? I have 12 reasons why I hit the "Show next page" button directly.

Top 5 worst forms of online advertisement

Since the beginning of this blog there were a lot of visitors and my website kept on growing. Because of that, several advertising websites contacted me if I was willing to put their clients ads on my website. I rejected them because they weren't in the best interest of my readers, which is very important for me.

I did some research and created a top 5 worst forms of online advertisement that will surely keep your visitors away.

Worst forms of online advertisement

This list is created from the users point of view. I think that if you add the number 1 on this list to your website, you'll probably receive more money. So it's up to you: Do you want more visitors and a high-quality website or do you want to fill up your website with loads of ads, keeping your visitors away?

Let me start that I wont put the Pop-up advertisement in this article. Those are old and most people now have a pop-up blocker or use Firefox to stop pop-ups. Who does believe that they're the 10.000th visitor of the website and click anyway?
