✍️ Expanded Section Example (Part 5 – Pop-Unders)

What is a Pop-Under?

A pop-under opens a new browser window behind your current tab. The user doesn't see it until they close or minimize your site. This makes it less intrusive than pop-ups but still pays well — typically $2–$15 CPM depending on traffic country.

Step-by-Step to Create:

1. In Monetag dashboard → Sites → Click your verified site

2. Click Add Zone → Select Pop-Under

3. Name it "Blogger Pop-Under"

4. Leave targeting as "All Visitors"

5. Click Save & Get Code

6. Copy the JavaScript code

7. In Blogger → Theme → Edit HTML

8. Paste it just before the closing </body> tag

9. Save theme

Pro Tip: Pop-unders work best on traffic from USA, UK, Canada, Australia. Tier 3 countries (India, Pakistan, Philippines) pay much less — often $0.50–$1 CPM.
