Allow a Site URL in AdBlocker Extensions on Web Browser

In this guide, we have shared the steps to allow sites to display ads for different ad blocker extensions. You can directly skip to the extension for setup.

Whitelist a Site in Ad Blocking Extension

The tutorial will focus on whitelisting a site from some of the most popular ad blockers, including uBlock Origin, AdBlock Plus, AdBlock, AdBlocker Ultimate, and Ghostery.

Furthermore, we will be sharing two different methods for the same. The first is a shorter approach and could be carried out with a single click.

However, if you wish to add multiple sites at once or make further changes to these settings, the second method within each adblocker extension section shall help you.

uBlock Origin Extension: Adding Trusted Sites

Here are the steps to allow ads on a site when using uBlock Origin:

1. Visit the Website URL.
2. Click on the uBlock Origin extension icon.
3. Hit on the Power icon to disable ad blocking.
   

However, if you wish to disable it only for the current page, press the Ctrl key, and while doing so, click on that Power icon.

Likewise, to get more granular control, allow a list of websites in uBlock Origin.

1. Click on the Settings icon situated at the bottom right.
   
2. Switch to the Trusted Site tab.
3. Type in the Website Addresses that you need to add to the whitelist.

Bottom Line

All the sites that offer unrestricted or free to read content usually display ads to monetize and run the business. Instead, it would be best to consider blocking only intrusive and pop-up ads that ruin the browsing experience.
