    Maybe you can just place it in your home page?

    Set a cookie. When the user visit your site for the first time, your popup will appear and you'll set a cookie to record that. Then, when the user navigate to another page, you'll just check if there is such cookie. If yes, no popup.

    You can learn how to set cookies here:

    Rufas' idea is a good one.
    Cookies are a way to track the users movements as well as seeing if they have been to your site before. Although European laws are changing with regards to the use of cookies.
