How to stop adverts on my yahoo mail

The pesky ads on Yahoo Mail! Don't worry, I've got some steps to help you minimize or completely remove them.

Method 1: Ad-free Yahoo Mail

Yahoo offers an ad-free version of their email service, called Yahoo Mail Pro. To get it:

  1. Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
  2. Click on your profile picture or avatar in the top right corner.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "Account" section.
  5. Click on "Upgrade to Yahoo Mail Pro" (if you're eligible).
  6. Follow the prompts to upgrade to the ad-free version.

Method 2: Disable ads using browser extensions

You can use browser extensions to block ads on Yahoo Mail. Here are a few options:

  1. uBlock Origin: A popular ad blocker that can be installed on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
  2. AdBlock Plus: Another popular ad blocker available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
  3. Ghostery: A browser extension that blocks ads, tracks, and malware. Available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.

To install and configure these extensions:

  1. Go to the browser's extensions store (e.g., Chrome Web Store, Mozilla Add-ons).
  2. Search for the extension name and click "Add to Chrome" or "Add to Firefox" (depending on your browser).
  3. Follow the installation prompts.
  4. Once installed, enable the extension by clicking the icon in the top right corner of your browser.
  5. Configure the extension to block ads on Yahoo Mail.

Method 3: Use a third-party email client

If you're not fond of using Yahoo Mail's web interface, you can use a third-party email client like:

  1. Microsoft Outlook: A popular email client that supports Yahoo Mail accounts.
  2. Mozilla Thunderbird: A free, open-source email client that supports Yahoo Mail accounts.
  3. Apple Mail: A built-in email client on Macs that supports Yahoo Mail accounts.

These clients often have built-in ad-blocking features or can be configured to block ads.

Method 4: Report ads to Yahoo

If you still encounter ads on Yahoo Mail, you can report them to Yahoo:

  1. Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.
  2. Click on the ad you want to report.
  3. Click the three vertical dots on the top right corner of the ad.
  4. Select "Report this ad" from the dropdown menu.
  5. Follow the prompts to report the ad.

By following these methods, you should be able to minimize or completely remove ads from your Yahoo Mail experience.
