This used to be common knowledge in “web design” but it’s still true. Every time a site interrupts the visitor from achieving something on your site, (modal, sso login, login prompt, newsletter signup) the visitor loses focus and is less likely to meet the goal (or “lowers conversion tracking” if you’re using analytics). That’s why these things should be displayed after the main content when the visitor is naturally open for a new pathway.
