How to block aads in yahoo mail

Blocking ads in Yahoo Mail can be a bit tricky, but there are a few methods you can try to minimize the number of ads you see:

Method 1: Use Yahoo's built-in ad-blocking feature

  1. Log in to your Yahoo 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 "Advertisements" section.
  5. Toggle the switch next to "Block ads" to the "On" position.

Method 2: Use a third-party ad blocker

  1. Install a reputable 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 Yahoo Mail.
  3. Restart your browser and log back in to Yahoo Mail.

Method 3: Use a browser's built-in ad-blocking feature

  1. If you're using Google Chrome, you can enable Chrome's built-in ad blocker:
    • Go to chrome://settings/content/ads
    • Toggle the switch next to "Block ads on sites that show intrusive or misleading ads" to the "On" position.
  2. If you're using Mozilla Firefox, you can enable Firefox's built-in ad blocker:
    • Go to about:preferences#content
    • Scroll down to the "Advertisements" section
    • Toggle the switch next to "Block ads" to the "On" position.

Method 4: Use a VPN

  1. Consider using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to mask your IP address and reduce the number of ads you see.
  2. Some VPNs, such as ExpressVPN or NordVPN, offer ad-blocking features as part of their service.

Important note: While these methods can help reduce the number of ads you see in Yahoo Mail, they may not completely eliminate all ads. Additionally, some ads may still appear even with these methods enabled.
