I have installed a pihole instance inside a docker container on my synology 218+. I have setup the IP of my synolgy as dns inside my fritz box. I also setup the IP to ignore for dsn rebinds. However when I search for result in google in click some result links (www.googleadservices.com/...), I always getting either DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN or ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED. It doesn't matter if I use my PC or my smart phone. Cleaning caches doesn't solve the problem. Restarting the synology or the router doesn't work as well.
Any ideas how to solve this issue?
That is an ad serving domain and is blocked by the default blocklist and most other block lists.
pihole -q www.googleadservices.com
Match found in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts:
www.googleadservices.com
If you want to see the ads, whitelist this domain. Note that this will whitelist the domain everywhere, not just on the site you are visiting.
Typically if you scroll down a bit in Google search results, you will find the same results without the ad wrapper.
Thanks for the answer. I was wondering why those ads are shown in the google result, even when they are blocked by pi-hole by default. After adding www.googleadservices.com to the whitelist, the links are working. Thanks for that quick answer!
The links are posted on the Google domain. Pay Google and your ad links get top billing.
