It is a good news for Bloggers that Google has recently enabled a feature to add the ads.txt file to the blogger. Now bloggers can sell their inventories to Authorized Digital sellers. We all know Ads.txt is a newly introduced program by IAB intended to reduce the fraud in online advertising. This program will stop people making money in the digital advertising by blocking unauthorized ad inventory sales. This is recommended but not compulsory for the publishers selling their inventory online. It is very simple to upload an Ads.txt file to WordPress through a plugin but now the functionality has been developed by Google to add the Ads.txt file to blogger as well. Please follow these below steps to upload ads.txt file into blogger.
