What is Tiktok-labs.com

Advertising site

Tiktok-labs.com is a site that delivers advertising. It holds a collection of ads by AdsKeeper. These ads open clickbait sites if you click on them. In addition, Tiktok-labs.com asks you to allow its notifications, which are then used to show you advertisements at any time.

It is very similar to Tiktok-news.com and Tiktok-fun.com.

Tiktok-labs.com’s ads are shown online, often on video streaming sites. If you’ve been watching free TV shows or movies, that may be how you ended up on Tiktok-labs.com. Aggressive ads and unexpected redirects are common on pirating sites.

Once on Tiktok-labs.com, you’re presented with an array of ads with clickbait titles. These ads open sites like Theinnerbeast.com (a clickbait site), Brainberries.co (another clickbait site), Thebusinessfountain.com (ditto), others. Sometimes Tiktok-labs.com opens a custom Google search engine’s results page with so many ads that it basically functions as an advertising site.

Redirects to clickbait sites

Clickbait sites are characterized by delivering as much advertising material as possible. As a result, their content is often presented in slides, a couple of paragraphs per page. To read a clickbait article, you’re forced to click through pages and pages featuring new ads. This makes the sites a lot of money. It’s not dangerous, but it does waste your time.

Besides, those sites that Tiktok-labs.com advertises ask you to allow their notifications, too. They use notifications to advertise. For example, I got a bunch of ads from Theinnerbeast.com for the infamous EWatch – Trustpilot.com.

Tiktok-labs.com shows articles and leads to clickbait.

Tiktok-labs.com also shows notifications if you allow it to. In my case, it showed ads with explicit adult images. Unexpectedly, they opened a custom Google search site with a search query already typed in (“stock trading account”) and many ads displayed above the results. Anyone can create their own custom search engine, have it display advertisements, and make money off of that. It’s just more worthless advertising. In fact, stock trading is a very risky business that’s often abused by scammers.

How to avoid Tiktok-labs.com

Ads for clickbait sites are all over the internet. Many reputable sites show native ads by Taboola, RevContent, and other companies. They make money from it. And so does Tiktok-labs.com.

Know that clicking on ads like those on Tiktok-labs.com is always a waste of time. Clickbait writers are often overworked and forced to focus on quantity, not quality, so their listicles are often inane, though you won’t find out until after you’ve clicked through a few slides. But by then the site has already made money off of you, while you have had your time wasted.

Recognizing native ads isn’t always easy, as they’re deliberately made to look like real article links. However, Tiktok-labs.com is nothing but ads, so it should be easy enough to recognize it for what it is.

You can use an anti-malware tool to block Tiktok-labs.com and sites like it. Some antivirus scanners detect Tiktok-labs.com as Spam (Virustotal.com). Some scanners allow you to blacklist sites yourself.

In addition, ad block tools can be used to avoid spam sites. Just make sure to find a reputable ad blocker – one that’s safe and has good reviews.

How to remove Tiktok-labs.com ads

It’s good to block suspicious and malicious sites. But what if you’ve already allowed them to send notifications to your browser?

Luckily, you can block pop-ups by Tiktok-labs.com and other sites in notification settings:

  • Chrome – type “chrome://settings/content/notifications” in the address box.
  • Safari – in the Safari menu, choose Preferences, Websites, Notifications.
  • Edge (Chromium) – type “edge://settings/content/notifications” in the address box.
  • Firefox – open Settings, Privacy & Security, scroll down to Permissions, and click on Settings next to Notifications.

Tiktok-labs.com's notifications can be blocked in browser settings.

In the notification settings page, find Tiktok-labs.com and other sites that show unwanted notifications. Next to each of them is a button that you can click to get the option to block notifications.

You might also want to check your device for malware. You can use apps like Spyhunter for Windows, Combo Cleaner for macOS, and others. Don’t install browser extensions and other programs that are promoted in notification pop-ups. They’re likely junkware.
