Most people, including myself, find pop ups annoying; especially if they constantly appearing per page. The opt-in (registration) form pop up is excusable, since many marketers receive members through this tactic. We always close the pop up window.

Pop-ups are irritating term, according to me. It will be more irritating when if your working on an important project and you will find those again and again.

If your using ubuntu then you can download Adblock plus 2.2.4. This will help you to shut pop-ups.

Everybody hates unwanted pop-ups. That’s why pop-up blockers are built into browsers these days.

Most browsers block popups by default. Everyone hates popups. It subtracts from your users experience when they have to deal with annoying popups. I would stay away from them.

As everyone above said, popup are the last thing your visitors want to see.

Coming to SEO, I’m not sure but it probably would not make difference in your SEO Rankings.

Pop-up is having Negative effect …many People who like to do daily work find this thing very annoying and frustrate them…so Using Popups is a bad idea…but you can Use reg popup when someone open your Website for first time…it helps the people to reg. with your Site…and as a result you can have Good Customer Base!!!
