I get that you want ads to help bring in revenue, perfectly acceptable too me too be honest. But AdFly's habit of creating gateway pages before visiting every external page is increasingly annoying. I think you should really take a look at another ad service, just me though.

The thing that just annoys me is the gateway page after every external link, again it could just be me.

Yes I understand. But the issue is that chris was using was using linkbucks, Which was wrapping the whole new site with ads. Adf.ly takes away 5 seconds but allows you to view the full page.

I hope this AdFly thing applies only on HC forums, and not our sites (cannot test since I don't have any external links in there!!!)??

Well I perfectly agree with this ad. It seems annoying in the beginning but once you get used to it its going to be ok.

Well actually it is better then linkbucks. I mean no one could view your site on its full with out manually copy and pasting the link on a browser. This system takes away 5 second but lets you show your site the way it is. With out any advertisement on your site

Yes. It took me by surprise when following Lordrach's external links! But if it helps HostCell, it's OK by me.
