The banner ad at the top of the page asks me to white list the site to allow ads. I added alternativeto.net, but the message remains. What domain needs to be white listed to support your site?

Hi HumbleOpinion,

Thanks for even considering doing this! I'm not sure what plugin/addon you use to block ads and/or flash etc, but maybe there's an option to allow content from a specific site + the external images, scripts etc that that site loads? We access banners from external partners like Google AdSense.

Let me know if this was helpful or not. Thanks again!

Hi Markus, I use Privoxy to block annoying adds. The ads on alternativeto.net are not annoying and I want to help support the site.

Through a little experimentation, I found that white listing the following urls in the { allow-ads } section of the user action file is required. (the "." is required in front of the url if shown.)

googleads.g.doubleclick.net

.googleadservices.com

pubads.g.doubleclick.net

.googlesyndication.com

Thank you for providing this great service!
