I was seeing a disgusting ad over and over again on a blog using the Blogspot platform, which is run by Google. It just was a visibly disgusting picture advertising something I have no interest in. It was so bad - the visual and the repetition - that I finally googled "how to stop seeing of ads on website."
I got to this page that google runs: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662850?hl=en titled "Remove unwanted ads."
It tells you how to get rid of adds on different platforms that google runs. Since Blogspot is owned by Google (it wasn't when I started here, nor was Youtube when I started there, nor was Twitter, do you see a pattern here?)
It's really simple and seems to work. I'm sure lots of people take care of this through some sort of ad blogging app or they already know this. But I figure if I didn't know about this until now, there are probably other Neanderthals like me. This is for you.
I didn't want to subject you to the disgusting visual and so I found a less obnoxious ad to show you how to do this.
No guarantees here, But it seems to have worked for the offending ad.Not all ads work this way, but if they have an x in the corner you can try. Here's another option I found doing that: Opt Out Information
Steve, Thank you!
