AntiAdBlock Core is built by developers who were also publishers
AntiAdBlock Core is an anti adblock script for publishers: it detects visitors who use an ad blocker and asks them to allow ads, so the site recovers lost ad revenue. It is self-serve, with flat public prices in USD and a free plan. It is built by a team of developers who were also publishers and has been in service since May 2026.
Free plan: 5,000 detections a month, one site, no payment method.
Why AntiAdBlock Core exists
We are developers who were also publishers. Our sites lived on ads, and every month ad blockers quietly cut into that revenue.
Adblock recovery providers fall into three groups: vendors that keep a share of the revenue they recover, ad networks that bundle recovery into a managed service, and tools you run yourself. We wanted the third kind: a flat price, any ad network and detection kept up to date. So we built it: a script you install yourself, on top of the ad network you already use.
Our team has been through GDPR audits, so we built the script to handle only the visitor data it needs. It is designed for GDPR. In practice:
Never
Fingerprinting
Visitor profiles
An identifier that singles out a visitor
Tracking cookies
Only
Anonymous counters, added up per site and per day
In the browser, on your own domain: a few timestamps with no identifier, for 30 days at most, which you can declare in your cookie notice
The visitor's IP address, used in transit to estimate the country and protect the service; it is never stored in the statistics, and the server logs that record it are deleted automatically after 14 days
How long each piece of data is kept
In transitThe IP address, for the country estimate

What AntiAdBlock Core does not do
What it does
It asks visitors who use an ad blocker to allow ads on your site. The ads keep coming from your own ad network.
Not an ad network
It does not sell ad space or run ads of its own, and it never reinserts or edits your ads.
No paywall or subscriptions
It does not put up a paywall, sell subscriptions, ask for donations or collect email addresses.
Not a cookie consent manager
It does not ask visitors for cookie consent or manage their choices.
No close button by default
By default the notice is a wall: readers whose browser blocks ads have to allow ads on your site to keep reading. If a reader blocks ads only at network level, you can let them close the notice; that setting is off by default.
AntiAdBlock Core is built and run by its own team of developers who were also publishers. AntiAdBlock Core runs the service, is the provider named in the Terms of Service and is the data controller named in the Privacy Policy. It has been in service since May 2026, and you can reach the team through the contact form or the chat, in English or Spanish.
02
Is AntiAdBlock Core legit?
You can check AntiAdBlock Core before you sign up: prices are public on the pricing page, the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy set out what the service does and what it does with data, the official plugin has been listed on WordPress.org since September 2026, and the Free plan runs on your own site with no payment method.
03
Is AntiAdBlock Core safe for my visitors' privacy?
AntiAdBlock Core is designed for GDPR. The script does no fingerprinting, builds no visitor profiles, sets no tracking cookies and keeps no identifier that singles out a visitor. Our statistics hold anonymous daily totals per site. In the browser, on your own domain, it keeps a few timestamps with no identifier, for 30 days at most, which you can declare in your cookie notice.
04
Who maintains the script and the WordPress plugin?
The same team. Detection is kept up to date on our side as ad blockers and filter lists change, so there is nothing to change on your site, and the site footer shows the app version currently running. The WordPress plugin is written and maintained by the team that runs the service, and its source code is published on WordPress.org.
05
How does AntiAdBlock Core make money?
Publishers pay for plans at flat monthly or yearly prices in USD, listed on the pricing page. We do not take a share of the ad revenue you recover, and we are not an ad network: we never serve, reinsert or edit ads. The Free plan, with 5,000 detections a month, needs no payment method.
