It's hard to be anonymous.
There are services that supply anonymous proxies. Often, they're a bit slow.
A easy step is to turn off cookies and only accept them on certain sites. That will get rid of a lot of ad tracking though some data will get gleaned from your IP.
You can also set your browser to delete cookies when you close it. It's a pain as you'll have to relogin to any site that you visit and want to remember you. But if it's only a few, then a combination of that and specifically allowing cookies from certain sites will take care of most of the tracking.
