It threw a modal at me after enabling scripts and scrolling a bit. Yeah, not reading further.



Oh why thank you. Yes, I just landed on your page for the first time, looking around to see what you got there.

What? If only I give you my email adress you will send me info about your page on a weekly basis as if I were the most interested person? And I have no guarantee you wont share my adress further? That sounds like an amazing deal! Let me sign up right now, before I even can read a paragraph on your page, I feel like I will definetly not regret it.

Seriously, how do these modals still have high enough conversion rate to justify their existence?
