How To Get Rid of Ads Forever

by Travis Hellstrom

  I'm not a big fan of ads. So I got rid of them.

I very rarely see ads on my computer.

Here are my email and Facebook screens, for example.

How To Remove All Ads

In my case, it was a three-step process:

  1. Download Chrome - I really enjoy Chrome. I've used Firefox and Safari, but I think Chrome is fastest and easiest.
  2. Download Minimalist - Allows you to customize your viewing of any application, like Gmail, line by line.
  3. Download AdBlock - Blocks every ad all the time.

That's it.

Enjoy never seeing ads ever again.
