Ads on Facebook

‎06-10-2014 11:58 AM

I dont post on Fb, when I go to my page i noticed ads; QVC is a big culprit. My email address on FB and Q are different. Some insurance ads which I never got a quote from or have used. Is there a way to block advertisers posting???

How do you think FB makes their money? I bet if FB started charging, all the people complaining about the ads would bail.

I downloaded Adblock Plus. It's great!! No ads on Facebook, Twitter or anywhere else.

If you're referring to the ads on the right side of the screen?

Yes, you can block them if you use browser add-ons like these (different browsers allow different add-ons):

AdBlock Edge
AdBlock Plus
Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon
