[Blogger] [AdMob] How to set up app-ads.txt

AdMob

Hello, this is HAL-JP.
This time, I would like to introduce how to set up app-ads.txt of AdMob on Blogger.
Blogger is free, so even if you don’t have a website, you can set up app-ads.txt for free!
You should set it up to prevent a significant decrease in revenue.
However, Blogger does not have a standard way to set up app-ads.txt. So I’d like to use a little trick to set it up!

What is app-adds.txt anyway?

Broadly speaking, it serves to prevent fraud.

It is a means for app developers to verify advertisers and confirm that they own the original app from which the ad request is originating.

AdMob announced on its AdMob blog that it will begin operating app-ads.txt, the ads.txt for apps, on August 27, 2019. See official blog

Set up the app-adds.txt file in your app

Please refer to the official Google website for introduction!

Set up an app-ads.txt file for your app - Google AdMob Help
For AdMob to find and verify your app-ads.txt file: Your app must be registered with Google Play Store or the Apple App ...

The above is how to set up app-ads.txt in Blogger. The way it works is that Blogger can set up ads.txt, so you enter the contents of app-ads.txt into ads.txt, and when app-ads.txt is read, it redirects to ads.txt. You can try it if you like.
