  • Jerome Boye,
    There is a lot of debate as to (technically) whether or not having popups negatively affects rankings. Popup ads are a popular themes these days and having functionality for popups would not seem to automatically affect rankings as they serve valuable purposes in many cases. That being said, Google is always after sites that use spammy tactics.

    Whether or not a popup will affect rankings may not be as important as how it affects user’s experience on your website. What would it matter if you were ranking number one and people hated your site and bounced all the time because they were annoyed by popups. Just a thought.

    Here is a good post on the topic,

    Do pop-ups affect rankings?

    Hope that helps,

    I don't think it is going to affect your rankings in any way. How you do your SEO, is more important when it comes to rankings.
