Brave Creator on Blogger/Blogspot
Verifying as a Brave Creator on Blogger/Blogspot is possible but it takes a few extra steps.
Normally the easiest way to verify a website is to place a specific file in a specific location on your server.
On Blogger you don't have access to this location but there is a way around this. It involves placing the required information to verify as a Brave Creator in a custom file and then re-direct any requests from the Brave server for the "/.well-known/brave-rewards-verification.txt" file to this custom file.
Here are the steps you need to take.
- In your Creator Account, select "+ Add Channel" and select "Website".
- When presented with the option, enter your blogspot address and press 'Continue'.
- Select 'I'll use a trusted file'.
- On the next screen, select and copy the file contents for the verification file.
- In Blogger, select the button to add a new post, switch to HTML view (left most button on the toolbar) and paste the contents of the verification file in the editor.
- Give the post an easy to remember name and publish it.
- In another window, open your blog and navigate to the post you have just created.
- Check that the file is there and the contents displays correctly. Copy the file location from the address bar (in my case 2021/12/braveverification.html
- In Blogger select Settings (on the left on the main menu), scroll down to 'Errors and Redirects', select 'Custom Redirect'.
- Add the following Custom redirect, replacing the 'To' name with the exact location and name of the file you created in step 6. Hit 'OK'.
- Go back to your Creator account as you left it in step 4, select 'Verify'
- Your Blogspot domain should now show up as verified.
- In Blogger, 'unpublish' the verification file by selecting 'Revert to draft'.
- Congratulations, you blog is now part of your Brave Creator account and you are ready to receive tips.
