Have you ever visited a website and all of a sudden you're seeing ads for items you recently shopped for online? We certainly have. Many websites these days, especially shopping sites, have cookies and trackers that collect information about your browser and your computer. Most of us don't really think about what's happening behind the scenes when we shop online. But advertising is everywhere, and online businesses flood us with all kids of ads.
We'd like to share a couple tricks you can employ on your browser to stop websites from tracking you while you shop online, and prevent those pesky ads from displaying while you browse.
Install Adblock Plus Free
Adblock Plus Free is a solid ad blocker that you install as an extension on your browser. It stops ads from displaying while you're browsing.
