Just an FYI.
I just got a pop-up ad from Scorecard Research on one of my hubs.
I've been getting it about once every day for past two weeks.
It is my understanding that google really hates web pages/sites/subdomains that have pop-ups. These Scorecard Research slime could be really hurting us.

People at one end say that good content is a must for a Hub or for any web article where Google adsense is the revenue source. I believe if the content is really good, the visitor will read through and reach the end of the article.But people at another end in Hubpages advice you not to place any...

The small right hand corner pop up is very annoying. It is a video pop up about 4 inches by four inches. I have even had a friend who reads my Hubs ask and complain about it. Pop ups are very annoying to people. They do not like them. I have Firefox set to block all pop ups and it still pops up and...
