  Then the article isn’t strong enough and will be rewritten. The more relevant it is in your search, the higher chance you will continue reading.

    I’m not sure you understand me. I assumed that the continue reading button would ask me to pay and since I am not going to pay I never continued reading.

      Ahhh, I think you might be an edge case. The users we tested this on all understood what was going to happen after.

        I’m part of your edge case too.

        I also back out of pages that have this, for the same reason.

        I’ve also assumed the same. There’s no way it’s a rare enough edge case not to be impactful
