It is an ad format that opens beneath the active browser window. It\u2019s a version of pop-ups that\u2019s designed to maximize offer visibility, CR, and CTR, and as a result, boost earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Popunder Differs from Other Ad Formats<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Advertising takes many forms, and here\u2019s how a popunder is different:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Popunder<\/td><td>Opens a new tab under the active one<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pop-up<\/td><td>Appears on top of the current tab<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Push<\/td><td>Browser or device notification (such as a calendar push)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>In-page push<\/td><td>Looks like push ads, but appears on-site<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Native ads<\/td><td>Blends into on-page content<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Pop Ads Positively Affect Publisher Earnings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.kadam.net\/en\/index.php?title=For_publishers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Publishers<\/a> choose pop traffic because it is one of the easiest and most profitable ways to monetize a website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Main Advantages of Popunder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Key benefits of this format are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Effortless monetization.
