Hi guys, I thought about a way how to deal with those ad blockers. I don't know if it works yet since I'm not using one but maybe some of you (especially you Windows guys, since I'm on a Mac) could try it with several ad blockers. So our normal AdSense code looks like this: <script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-xxx"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 60; google_ad_format = "468x60_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; google_color_border = "336699"; google_color_bg = "FFFFFF"; google_color_link = "0000FF"; google_color_url = "008000"; google_color_text = "000000"; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> Code (markup): What you could do is change the last but one line to this: src="http://your.site.com/menu.html"> Code (markup): And make a 301 redirect from http://your.site.com/menu.html to http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js. So you would basically hide the original Google URL. There might still be a problem if the ad blockers were looking for google_* parameters in the JavaScript. I have no idea how to trick them on this one yet. And of course you might want to check with Google if you are allowed to make such a change
If you read this thread you'll find an alternative option for when javascript is blocked, but really it's a minority who are using ablockers (at least knowingly). Find additional, non-javascript and *interesting to your target-audience* ways to make cash if you want to make sure everyone sees "offerings" (it still doesn't guarantee earnings will change, though, as people block these ads for a reason). I doubt google would allow such a change as they do state that no changes to the code should be made. Definitely ask google.
It does not worth to be banned from google just to display ads to the 0,01% of your visitors who are using ad blockers
I did read it to the end, I was just stating that publishers definitely aren't allowed to make this kind of change, while you said people should check.
Why would you want to bother with this, anyway? People who run ad blockers are unlikely to click on the ads anyway, and will only get annoyed by the fact that you've managed to get around them.
it's not that we didn't read it to the end, it's just that you asked a question similar to "should i check with google if i can click on my own ads to increase revenue for me and for GOogle themselves?". it's written clearly that you cannot change the code.
