How to Block Ads in Firefox and Chrome

Posted on by

This blog depends on Ads, and I never recommend anyone to disable ads. If users block ads, then most of the bloggers will stop blogging. But sometimes, it is necessary to disable or block ads. Recently, I had visited a blog, it was showing adf.ly ad and pop-up ad each time I was clicking on a link, normal ads spaces were already filled with ads, bottom area ad was always on top. And this all was too much. First time I disabled ads on a blog.

So, if you get caught in above situation, you have two choices. You either leave the website or block the ads on it.

Adblock Plus (ABP) is a solid extension for Firefox and Chrome; it blocks ads on a page whether it is a normal AdSense ad or pop-up ad. Most of the ads on a page are served by JavaScript. So, if an ad is irritating you, Adblock Plus can block it.

ABP for Firefox: Here
ABP for Chrome: Here

After installing ABP, it blocks ads on a page. ABP creates a menu on add-on bar in left side of bar, and add-on bar is in bottom side of browser-window. ABP menu has options to enable or disable ads for a page, a website or the browser.

You should keep Adblock Plus disabled everywhere, but if a website or a page is full of ads you can instantly block ads on that website.
