I’ve recently converted from IE to Firefox! And let me tell ya…it took me a while to do so. For one, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I was so much in a comfort zone with IE that I really just didn’t see the need to change browsers. Then after seeing the excitement of Firefox hitting me over & over again from every direction, finally, I took the plunge to download it. My only regret is that I didn’t download it sooner. It’s absolutely wonderful!-) I guess people never understand the difference between good and Great until they actually experience it. IE may be good to many - but Firefox is Grreeaat! In order to convert more Internet users over to Firefox you may just have to keep hitting them from all angles until they FINALLY get the point. Firefox is not necessarily a one-click-close.

I get really good conversions for Firefox…But then again my site is content oriented to Firefox.

Ok, so I didn’t mean to come off so harsh before, but I get easily fired up when I read something I don’t agree with.
I thinking I may have misunderstood your post. When you say landing pages, do you mean your typical splash page (i.e. Welcome to my site, Bob’s Stereo World (Click here to view site)), or do you mean a landing page in the sense of a navigational portal to the contents of the site? If you mean that latter then yes you are right the landing page is almost a necessity in today’s internet. If you meant the other, then that has been proven ineffective and more of an annoyance than anything.
A Linux monopoly would be interesting, but with so many different contributers I don’t think it would be a true monopoly, since the only people that would benefit would be the user :). But, I think Linux still has a long way to go to fully embed itself in the mainstream consumer market. It’s getting better with Ubuntu, but what I would really like to see is a more unified and streamlined platform. Similar to what Apple (NeXT) did for Unix.

Dylan, landing pages is the #1 marketing technique since 99, and believe me it still works

Regarding the monopoly, you are probably right, but as the monopoly in most software products right now belongs to Micro$oft, I see ,many reasons to help another project, especially when it is open source.

In fact I would love to see a monopoly of Linux too

Anyway this post is about how to promote the adsense firefox affiliate, not what browser is better. Thank you very much for your comment.

Wow, landing pages huh. Welcome back to 1999. That’s not good practice at all; how can you be recommending this. You’re doing more harm than good It’s the users choice what browser to use. If they use Firefox, awesome! I’m not however going to force my opinions of which browser is better down their throat. I will say that I’m a strong standards advocate and know that Firefox conforms better to the W3C’s recommendations, but it’s kind of nice not having a browser monopoly anymore. So I won’t be encouraging Firefox to create one. Competition breeds innovation. So to everyone, use which browser is the most comfortable to you.
