What is the Ads.txt file? Why is it necessary?
The Ads.txt file is a simple line-based file that clearly shows the partners that the website allows to publish advertisements. That is, by placing this file on your site, you are declaring which platforms show advertisements on your site. Google Adsense also requests from people who want to show advertisements on the website to place the Adsense Ads.txt file on the site. This file is intended to ensure transparency and security in the advertising field. For that reason, it is mandatory to place the Ads.txt file on the site. If you do not place this file on the site, your advertisements may not be published, may be published in a restricted manner, or your site may be blocked by Adsense. To prevent such situations, it is necessary to place the file on the site.
Placement of the ads.txt file on a site opened with Blogger
Placing the Ads.txt file on the Blogger platform is quite simple because this function is added internally to the system settings. As you see in the video below, without the need for any code editing, it is sufficient to just copy the special code you obtained from the Google AdSense panel and place it into the relevant box in the management panel. After completing this step correctly, Google bots will re-index your site within a short time and confirm your advertisement publishing permission.
Placement of the ads.txt file on a site opened with WordPress
Placing the ads.txt file on a site opened with WordPress is also quite comfortable. If you established the site yourself and brought it to a ready state for advertising, adding the ads.txt file will not be difficult for you. In the video below, you will learn how you will place the ads.txt file on a site created with WordPress.
