Any non predatory practices you can add to the list? | | |
| ▲ | bayindirh 3 days ago | parent [-] | | I think you were trying to reply to me. I'm not a web developer, and I don't do anything similar on my pages, blog posts, whatever, so I don't know. The only non-predatory way to do this is to being honest/transparent and don't pulling tricks on people. However, I think, A/B testing can be used in a non-predatory way in UI testing, by measuring negative comment between two new versions, assuming that you genuinely don't know which version is better for the users. |

| ▲ | bayindirh 3 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | Two operational requirements: 1. Journalists shall be able to write new articles and publish them ASAP, possibly from remote locations. 2. Eyeball optimization: Different titles, cutting summaries where it piques interest most, some other A/B testing... So you need a data structure which can be modified non-destructively and autonomously. Plus many more things, possibly. I love static webpages as much as the next small-web person, but we have small-web, because the web is not "small" anymore. |
