How do you deal with adblockers?
This is my first website and I start to get some organic traffic ~10+ per day and about 100+pageviews I have about 3 ads per page and so I should get 300 impressions but according to my adnetwork I just got 18 impressions.
I think this might be due to adblockers. so now I wonder how could I deal with this issue?

If the users have adblocker then u can content lock the content asking the users to desactivate adblocker to access your site. What ad network are u using?
 
I doubt that over 90% of your viewers are using adblockers.

Is your niche a niche where everybody is very computer literate and uses desktops, not mobiles? If the answer is no, I don't think adblockers are the cause of your lack of impressions.

Mobile firefox also supports adblock. More bad news, I guess. :p

The niche in which I get the organic traffic to is about gaming so I think it is possible that these people are using adblockers and the traffic is about 80% desktop traffic.

now you are getting 10+ visiter is you will use an adblocker detector, you will start getting half of them. so I don't think it would be a better idea of using an adblocker detector...(that happened with me)

yes, I think if use and adblock detector I might loose some traffic but on the other side because I rely on ads I think even if it halfs the traffic is would be better. How did the adblocker detector effected your revenue?
 
If i was you i would focus on getting more traffic first. Adding an anti-adblock detector could make many people mad, which would then mean, you wont have any returning visitors if they dont turn it off. Alternatively, you can maybe run a test with Adblock detector to see how many people acutally uses an Adblock when visiting your website.

my bounce rate went to 80% so for that reason some of my KW rankings went down.
if you will see it affects many more things not just revenue but also ranking and bounce rate etc.

So, at the end you removed the anti adablocker thing? and things got back to normal?

So I just checked my website and it seems that it is rather an issue with the adnetwork than with users using an adblocker. the ads just do not appear.

no, I had to remove all my ads as well, after all it took me so much time to get there again.
then I decided to put ads when I'll reach 1k per day visiter. and I did.
 
I ask this question before, Actually a lot claim if you do that , ironic Visitors will leave your site instantly unless your content etc is very very interesting to make them unblock their ad blocker but highly will not. They will go google the same information and read from other sites having the same informaiton without ad blocker
