Hi guys, this post is not about information or any answers,
but about a humble request. Most of us use Adblock, Adblock plus, or other ad
blocking tools to restrict unwanted ads from popping up. But, do we need to
do the same on Blogs we trust? I don't think any of us is against monetizing content. If
we are not against monetizing then we need to disable ad blocking tools on
trusted blogs and sites. You might have seen pages and websites restricting
people to access their content; they ask you to disable Adblock and refresh the
page. I personally think forcing people
to disable their ad blocking tools is not correct. All I can do is to request
you humbly to disable ad blocking tools on my blogs and other trusted blogs (if
you use such tools). I don't know why adblockers blacklist google Adsense when it
is the safest advertising platform. Google Adsense ads should be white-listed in
my opinion. Things are not in our hands and we cannot tell these developers to
whitelist or approve anything. But we can take care of each other by disabling these
tools on our blogging networks. Your Views?
Why is Society so important? Why do we care a lot about society? Why we do all the things considering society in mind? What about society irritates us? Why we are judged for every single step we take? Why it is so important? These questions often come in our mind when we are judged by the society. We begin to curse society due to its negative impacts in our lives. Of course, we are the ones who create society and we are crucial members of it as well. Global societies are generally incorporated with different cultures and religions, and it is a fact that a community would look awful with the same type of people; we are not robots. The basic nature of the term "society" is democratic , then why we force cultural expectations in it? I am including relatives also in society, because apart from our neighbors, colleagues, and other people who comes into the circle of social interaction, relatives are also part of it; they are also living under the same socially accepted norms.

Totally a fair request! I know that I use ads on my own site to help support our family, so when those are blocked, our family feels it. Definitely from trusted sites and blogs ads aren't a bad thing! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Ads from Google Adsense and other reputed networks are not bad. If an ad system is not irking (showing up while typing, not allowing you to read the content, opening pop ups, spaming, and more) then it should be white-listed by adblockers. Thank you for understanding Tabitha..I hope other people will also understand this and disable adblocking tools on trusted blogs.
Deletevery true..if a blog is good and we trust it we should disable these tools
ReplyDeleteYes :)
DeleteI love you can pick and choose what blogs show you ads I do that alot. I know there are some blogs I have had 200 ads blocked on their page, which is a crazy amount of ads. I know a lot of commercial sites also run faster with out ads as well.
ReplyDeleteThere are some ads in which are very frustrating when I come across a blog, which makes me keep the adblocker on. Some sites have it so ads pop up mid screen, or even annoy you while your typing, or block the box to type in even. I don't mind ads that are stand still, or to the side but have come across blogs that have serious ad problems. Everyone has a right to use or not use an ad blocker just as one has right to run ads or not run ads.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind ads so long as they are not invading my screen. Pop-ups can be a real headache if they don't go away. But the ads on the sidebars, banners, etc, that's perfectly fine! I disabled my adblocker a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteI can see your ads just find so I don't think I am using adblockers. I have no problem with blog owners monetizing their blogs.
ReplyDeleteI did not know it could be customized to each site. AdBlocker is a great tool but you make a good point.
ReplyDeleteYes it definitely hurts website owners, youtubers and others when ad block is used.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big fan of pop-up ads and sites that request me to disable adblocker when I want to read their content. I always turn off the adblocker when I'm visiting blogs and sites I know for ages.
ReplyDeleteI don't like adding intrusive ads to my sites. I agree with you. When ads interfere with my experience with a blog, it is a turn off.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree Gogle Adsense ads should be white-listed. It's hurts so much us that work very hard, and depend on Google.
ReplyDeleteI'm not using an adblocker, but that's just me. Hopefully most traffic is coming from non-bloggers though.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know it could be set for specific sites too. Good post and great advice.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind allowing ads to come up on trusted sites, especially if it will help other bloggers. My only concern is with blogs that aren't so trustworthy as I once had a ad malware virus occur on my computer thanks to a blog.
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting and every blog or website owner should know about this.
ReplyDeleteI'm not adverse to ads. I do click on the ones that intrest me, esp. if I'm visiting a blog I trust.
ReplyDeleteI really dont know much about adblockers but I dont have a problem with ads.
ReplyDeleteThis is really helpful. Sometimes, I am annoyed by ads especially if there is a malware involve.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree with Google Adsense should be white-listed. Ads really help bloggers, this is a nice request.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I have time, I do click on ads. I know how it is hard to earn money on blogging.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind ads. Unless they are popping up every where. Then I mind.
ReplyDeleteI was using adblockers but I removed the app. For some reason I couldn't see some blog posts on sites I frequent when I used it.
