Adjix Sucks
Adjix Sucks
Hate Adjix? Then please read on...
1. I hate that I can’t see the original URL.
For starters, the ads are always optional. Adjix links without ads are simple redirects. For links with ads, we've added a way to remove the Adjix ad and reveal the linked content by simply clicking on the “Remove ad” link. We’re one of the rare companies who allow their users to remove ads.
2. I’m following people on Twitter who are “spamming” me with Adjix.
We recommend following Guy Kawasaki’s advice, “UFM” (unfollow me). In other words, don’t follow these people. We’re working on a way that any user can click on an Adjix link without seeing ads, by choice. Of course, we have to balance that with our Advertiser's desires and our revenues. Many of our users simply like using Adjix without ads in order to track link click data or tweet directly to Twitter.
3. Don’t wrap my web page!
Web technologies have improved significantly over the years. If you’re a website owner who doesn’t want your webpages wrapped then one solution is to simply drop a little bit of JavaScript on your site:
<body onload = “javascript: if (parent.frames.length > 0) parent.location.href = location.href;”>
We recommend the JavaScript solution over contacting the users who violated your terms of service since the JavaScript will work in all cases we know about.
