how do you fight AdBlock ?

AdBlock blocks about 40% of all your users.

This especially sucks if you buy/sell banner ad spots.

Are there any ways to fight it?

i guess you could run an adblocker, and try and figure out why some ads show and some don't

It is even worse in porn... Text links work better if you use some affiliate link cloaking plugins.

there are simple ways to detect if adblocker is on... you can even log that to your google analytics (since that's not blocked) so you can get EXACT number of visitors using adblock.

than you could come up with a strategy to replace these ads that are blocked with some simple banner or html5 or textlink ads or whatever...

you can contact me on email if you need help with that (in sig)

Exactly. I'll never understand, for the life of me, why people do stuff like redirect people with Adblock or block them from accessing your site, etc. AdBlockers are here to stay, people need to get over it and find a way to engage the user without blocking them.

A simple (simplified) case of the following does the trick:

(IF adblocker==true { show_alternative_html5ad} else {show_normal_ad})

Of course, the above is not actual code, but the simple logic for it.

Similarly, why advertisers, sponsors, ad agencies, etc continue to insist on using flash, iframes, etc (the stuff typically blocked by free basic adblockers by default) is mind-boggling. Using a simple push/pull and html5 based ads in the case of an adblocker just makes so much more sense to me.

Maybe I should also rename ad files from /banner1.gif to something else?


The problems start when you install a script to rotate the ads. Somehow AdBlock detects it.
