Well, Here's A Preview Of The Ad-Free Phoronix

Posted by Michael Larabel on October 29, 2010

This morning on Phoronix you may notice that there are no ads being served on Phoronix and you are able to view entire articles on a single page. Well, this is a preview of Phoronix Premium.

Though this isn't the full-blown Phoronix Premium experience as you don't have access to the special area of our forums and you are still seeing ads there, but for the main site it's currently ad-free and you can view full articles on a single page. Don't get too used to it, unless you want to subscribe, as this is just available to everyone for a short while this morning.

One of the ad servers that IDG uses to serve advertisements on Phoronix seems to have gone rogue and is causing frequent blank screens to appear on Phoronix pages. So while I am getting frustrated waiting for this issue to be resolved, all of you get a Phoronix Premium preview. Should you like seeing the site without advertisements and the very fast load times, you can subscribe to Phoronix Premium for just a few dollars per month.

Discuss this article in our forums, IRC channel, or email the author. You can also follow our content via RSS and on social networks like Facebook, Identi.ca, and Twitter (@Phoronix and @MichaelLarabel). Subscribe to Phoronix Premium to view our content without advertisements, view entire articles on a single page, and experience other benefits.
