Creating a landing page with an age disclaimer

There are two ways to add an age disclaimer to your site. You can either show it on a popup window, or create a landing page for it.

Both options have a confirmation button and no other navigational options. That way, in order for visitors to view the rest of your site, they are required to click the confirmation button.

Add a popup.
Click the popup.
Click the Settings icon .
1. Select Yes under Automatically display popup on pages.
  1. Click the Which pages is it on? field and select First page visitor sees.
  2. Drag the Delay slider to 0 seconds.
2. Disable the X icon toggle.
3. Enable the Close button toggle.
Set up the button that leads to your site:
1. Click the Close button on your popup and click Change Text.
2. Enter the confirmation text (e.g. "Yes, I'm over 18").
Customize your popup to create your age disclaimer.
Customize and set up this popup for mobile.
Note: By default, popups won’t appear on your mobile site unless enabled in the mobile editor. This is because Google does not like intrusive popups on mobile sites so having a popup enabled may negatively impact your site’s SEO.
