Google Ads to get a “mute this ad” [x] icon

Google is a company that is built on and thrives on Ad Revenue. Yes, it is a search engine among other things but all of itss revenue is Ad Generated and the company has been trying real hard to get their ads better and better and in fact making them more user friendly. If you are a regular YouTube user you know how you can skip ads, these in YouTube parlance are known as TrueView ads. Users who see Google Adsense ads are familiar with the 'Ad Choices' that appear on the top of these ads. Clicking on Ad Choices will take you to a page where you can choose what type of Ads you might like to see. This might be a way to persuade people from using Ad blocker. A lot of our favorite sites on the internet are available for free. All you need to do is put up with the ads. It is no use using ad blocker and using a service for free. If everyone did this then most of your Social Sites will need to shut-shop and quit. Reddit users are familiar with the 'Thank you for not using Adblock' ad that comes from Reddit. In fact they are so grateful that instead of an ad you might get a squirrel eating a nut or a smiling cat. 


Anyways, continuing further - Google Adsense Ads are going to get an (x) or mute this ad icon. This will be available over the next few weeks. How this is works is that when a user click on the (x) mark they will be able to must ads from that particular campaign. They will also see a page confirming that the ad campaign has been muted and also a link to Ad Preference manager. Where they can choose categories of ads they would like to see. This brings interactivity to their ads and also might increase creativity among advertisers who are creating ads. Do let us know what you think about this option from Google, in the comments section below.

How to disable or remove +1 from Adsense

Google's Adsense program announced sometime ago that Adsense Ads especially the ones with image and rich media ads will get a +1 button. The +1 button has been added for people to +1 ads and therefore when a friend sees that another friend has liked this ad they will also want to check it out. This might bring in much more revenue for publishers. The idea has been to create social ads. So by default if you have your ads set to display image and rich media ads, it comes along with a +1 button. The button shows recommendations from people and increase the ads social value.


Now this is still in a testing stage and you as a blog owner or publisher can experiment with it. You can choose to have the +1 button or remove it. It helps increase revenue for some and might not work as good for others. You will need to decide which ads work best for you.


How to remove the +1 button from your Google Adsense ads
1. Login to Adsense
2. Click on Allow & block ads
3. Click on advanced settings (left-hand column)
4. Under social ads preference click on the box next to the tick symbol and you get a stop symbol
5. Click stop and the +1 button will stop appearing on your ads.
