How to block pop ads in Google Chrome

First, open Chrome. Then, click the button in the upper right hand corner of the window with three horizontal bars on it. Hover your mouse over Tools and then click Extensions. From there, click Get more extensions. In the new page that pops up, click on the search box in the upper left hand corner and type “simple ad” without the quotes. Press Enter.

Simple Adblock should be the fourth result from the top. Click the blue button to the right of Simple Adblock labeled “Free,” then when a new notification pops up in the middle of the screen, click “Add.”

That’s all there is to it, you’re not required to restart Chrome in order to get Simple Adblock up and running. Some content can’t be consumed, like videos, unless you go through the ad. In such situations, all you need to do is click on the red Simple Adblock icon in the upper right hand corner of Google Chrome, and then click Turn off Simple Adblock. After that, refresh the page containing the content you want to check out, and it should play normally. Repeat the same process to turn Simple Adblock back on.
