How to prevent ads from showing up on my Home or Archive Pages

Lets check how to prevent a particular ad block from showing up on the home or archive pages.

By archive pages I mean monthly/yearly archives, category archives and tag archives.

If you don’t know how to insert ads into your blog yet..follow the tutorials given here.

We can try eliminating ads above posts on home page and archive pages. Most of us dont want to show the ads on home and archives pages as it will resilt in a lot  of ad blocks on the same page which will look uninviting to many users.

Lets open the “Manage ads (Posts and Sidebars)” menu in wp-insert. Now expand the “Ad – Above Post Content” block.

You can see the options “Exclude on Home Page” and “Exclude on Archives Pages” towards the bottom of the block.

Check the oned you want. I am going to exclude ads from both Home and Archives pages, so I will click both.

Now click the save button at the bottom of the page and you are done excluding the top ads from your Home and Archive pages.

You can follow the same procedure for all ad types.

That was easy! Wasn’t  it?
