So we made a temporary Gmail, which also didn’t register my site to the portal at all as it showed us as having nothing attached to the account. Don’t have time to waste on an Ad blocker that doesn’t work with our email system TLD, nor one that doesn’t even recognize our newly recognized server. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/97bbe4fe76251bd8de789468d4e055a2a38da2615beb64caba53e5aff6c24084? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The best](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-best-742/)󠁿 [General Seed](https://profiles.wordpress.org/autocultivo/) December 14, 2016 The best, works fine, multiple options, great job- Many thanks ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/9773544ce0ecf59fd633f33173df34d5f9848d6b0d05bf7ccec7dcf260fff148? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin, great support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-great-support-512/)󠁿 [rinoadiary](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rinoadiary/) November 6, 2016 This plugin works like a charm, also support is great ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/54ae1d3d25dee96d331bc75b5404ff6161c20fa35c3fec9f6629c4b6d7faf738? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[ABX Provides Valuable User Data](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/abx-provides-valuable-user-data/)󠁿 [monishrrm](https://profiles.wordpress.org/monishrrm/) September 3, 2016 ABX is a great tool. It has provided us with valuable insight into the number of ad blocker users coming to our sites. We’ve been impressed with the ability to easily review specific segments of users by parameters such as device type, time of day and geo. It has helped us better understand our user base and allowed us to optimize our traffic acquisition strategies.
