Popups blocked by Chrome itself, how to monetize now?

[SashaPavelMisha]

one of my sites' popups are now actively being blocked by chrome itself. not just firefox where it's normal behavior, but google chrome does it for one of my sites. assuming this is not a site for google ads or similar ad networks, popups and push out of the question, what are other ways to monetize? ask for donations? site is growing traffic, and while i love the numbers, it's starting to put a big load on my network yet earns me nothing.. any advice? thanks

You can use banner ads, native ads, or in-content ads instead of popups. Networks like AdMaven offer quality display ads with good targeting options, ensuring the ads are relevant to your audience without being intrusive.

Try native ads, in-text monetization like Propeller or Evadav, or gated content—way safer than popups and still brings revenue.

Popups dying on Chrome means you gotta pivot fast. Focus on native ads, sponsored content, or affiliate deals that don’t rely on intrusive methods. Also, email lists or Patreon-style donations work if your audience’s loyal enough. Build trust, then monetize smart.

Focus on native ads, in-content affiliate links, sponsored posts, or premium memberships—these work without triggering popup blocks.

Try switching to on-page monetization like native ads or content lockers—less intrusive and Chrome won’t block it.

I have a small question: "Content lockers—less intrusive" - What does it mean and what are the steps to take? Thanks and Hope for your prompt response!

Rather than using pop-up windows, you can choose more user-friendly formats such as banner ads, native ads, or even those integrated directly into the content.

If popups and push are blocked, try native ads, in-content banners, affiliate links, or even a Patreon/donation model for monetization.

If popups and push are blocked, focus on native ads, in-content banners, affiliate links, or even subscription/donation models—anything embedded that users interact with naturally.
