Spammy: Black Friday Ad on Every Admin Page!

    I understand advertising on your own pages (tastefully), however, Yoast proceeded to place a large horizontal banner ad across the top of all admin pages. This banner ad is 1015px by 102px. This was no small ad, nor was it on their own admin pages. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if this was an advertising stunt to create a viral situation for additional exposure. Poor taste.

  • Hi @stevenayers63,

    Thanks for your comment.

    We understand that the Black Friday banner was annoying. Although it was dismissable, it was a bit buggy so last Thursday we released Yoast SEO v12.6.2 which completely removes the banner from the admin panel. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. You can also find our public apologies on social media through this link.

    We appreciate your taking the time to send your feedback.

    I was also annoyed by this banner. Glad to see you understand why and corrected it.
