    Hello

    is there any way, when a user click an ad, it get opens in a new window. Google should allow that so that user just don't need to again reopen the website or start clicking back buttons .

    What do you people think ??a

    Nope. There's no legitimate way to make it open in a new window. Actually most people expect things to open in the same window when they click on it, so I don't really have a problem with it.

    Yes crusader is absolutely correct also some users did not like Ads opening in a separate window as they have to minimize the current window to see at the main window

    I still think that ads should open in a new window. Whenever I see an ad, I try to find a way to open it in a new window so I don't have to leave the page I'm in.

    I'd rather have the ads open in a new window, because then the user who clicks the ad might just forget about the site he was on.

    Logically, look at this from the paying advertiser's point of view. They want your traffic on their site. This is why they bought ad space. If ads open in another window there is a good chance that the less web savvy surfers out there will actually not even notice the new window, double click, block the new windows as pop-ups -- a whole laundry list of potential issues.

    It's not ideal, but as a publisher it's just one of the adsense T&C's that you have to live with...think of the vistor moving off your site as the advertiser buying them from you...:)

    Bidvertiser allows open in a new window.. Adsense does not.

    It would be a great option to add to adsense

    Peace,

    you can open it in a new tab (in IE7 at least) by just clicking the scroll wheel of your mouse...

    I like it opening on a new window, I would find it annoying if i'm searching (as I normally do) For more than one thing, and to have to keep going back.

    That's why running adsense is a catch 22. We are all trying to get more traffic to our sites and build up the community, but by using adsense you are throwing users away for money.
