You can admit that some websites (like a Full-mark.xyz) use you pop-up promotions. The message can contain something like “do you want to receive alerts about the most up to date information?” or “allow notifications to be reported regarding new price cuts?”. Normally, such messages are risk-free, and can just sidetrack you with its sudden arrival. Plus it can be quickly turned off, in case notifications from this website are no longer needed.
Pop-up notices are rather an efficient advertising and marketing tool. If you want items of some sort, you can enable pop-ups from the web site where you can acquire this stuff, and as soon as these items are in stock again, or if you can have a price cut – you will certainly obtain the notice about this. The counterparty – online sellers, cars and truck lending companies, etc – will be in profit, too – customer will definitely get a suggestion regarding the product he/she meant to purchase. And such an advertising and marketing method is almost cost-free – this element is very essential for corporations.
