: Is there a class or id that will cause an ad to be blocked by most major adblockers? Is there a general class or ID for a html element that a high majority of popular adblockers will block

Is there a general class or ID for a html element that a high majority of popular adblockers will block on a website it has no information for.
My intention is to have my advertisement blocked, avoiding automatic blocking is easy enough...
I was thinking of maybe lending some ids or classes from big advertisment companies that area already being fought off quite actively.
right now my html

<ul id=partners>
<li class=advertisment><a href=# class=sponsor><img class=banner></a></li>
</ul>


Will this work or is there a more solid approach?

Adblockers use a variety of techniques to block ads. They block them by domain or IP address, they also block them based on ad size. So if your ads are a common ad size, they should automatically be blocked.

But if you want to offer more clues via class and ID names, use a class since you can put as many names in it as you want. I'd then stick with obvious ad keywords like, "ad", "advertisement", "advert", etc.
