How do i stop ads on aol mail

The nostalgia of AOL Mail! Unfortunately, AOL Mail is no longer the popular email service it once was, and the ads can be quite annoying. Here are some steps to help you minimize or stop ads on AOL Mail:

Method 1: Disable ads in your AOL Mail settings

  1. Log in to your AOL Mail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner of the page.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "Advertising" section.
  5. Toggle off the switch next to "Allow AOL to show me ads" to disable ads.

Method 2: Use an ad blocker

  1. Install an ad blocker extension in your web browser, such as:
    • uBlock Origin (Chrome, Firefox, Edge)
    • AdBlock Plus (Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
    • Ghostery (Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
  2. Configure the ad blocker to block ads on AOL Mail.

Method 3: Use a third-party email client

  1. Set up your AOL Mail account in a third-party email client, such as:
    • Mozilla Thunderbird
    • Microsoft Outlook
    • Apple Mail
  2. These clients often have built-in ad-blocking features or can be configured to block ads.

Method 4: Consider switching to a different email provider

  1. If you're tired of the ads and want a more streamlined email experience, consider switching to a different email provider, such as:
    • Gmail
    • Outlook.com
    • ProtonMail
    • Yahoo Mail

Keep in mind that AOL Mail is a free service, and ads are a way for them to generate revenue. While these methods can help minimize ads, they may not completely eliminate them.
