How to disable Facebook notifications in Google Chrome browser

This morning I was annoyed by a Facebook notification in the lower right side of my Google Chrome while not a single webpage was open!  I started wondering how this happened (I have to admit here that I am probably not up-to date on recent feature updates in Google Chrome) . However, unexpected notifications can cause embarrassment if it happens at work to someone. Thankfully, there are few ways you can make sure to avoid/ disable such Facebook notification in your Chrome browser. Here are two ways that you can use to block any specific website notifications in Google Chrome:

Option 1: Google Chrome Address Bar

• Open Facebook.com in Google Chrome
• Click on small “Green Lock” icon that shows up in the address bar just before the website URL. This will open a drop-down menu (I never really noticed this menu before!)
• Under “Permissions” section, there is a number of things that you can set permission for. Just click next to the “Notifications” and Select “Always block on this site”

Option 2: Google Chrome Settings

• Open the Google Chrome settings page
• Click on “Show Advanced Settings” at the bottom
• Under “Privacy” section, click on “Content Settings”
• Scroll down to “Notification” section and click on “Manage Exceptions'”
• Click on “https://www.facebook.com/” and in the drop-down menu, change it from “Allow” to “Block” or remove it all together
• Click 'Done'

That is all it takes to avoid unexpected Facebook notifications in your Google Chrome.
