Removing "Powered By Blogger"

Back at the beginning of the internet, there was no Google, and having your own website was a mighty extravagant endeavor.  You'd need web hosting services, FTP access, and a whole bunch of other skills which are worth it to know (lessons can be found here on this blog how to do that stuff).

Now, you can just sign up for a free blog through your gmail.  Google has practically put together one of the best ways for making websites, without using your parent's credit card.  The purpose for your website is up to you, but thankfully because of modern technology and services like Soundcloud, if you're a musician, and FB and such, one can really have a web presence using something as simple as a blog.  

If you have yourself a blog, and you'd like to make it appear that it's not a blog but actually its own stand-alone website, there are a few exceptions that you can add to your Blogspot template, whereby you insert code that over-rides the appearance features of a normal blog.  Those codes are as follows. 

#Attribution1 {display: none;}
This code refers to the bottom bar which reads "powered by blogger" and causes it not to be displayed.  

#navbar-iframe {display:none;}
This code refers to the top frame of the blog, that shows more signs of the site being hosted on Blogger.

Now I can show you where to get into the HTML source to make the changes.

Step One.  Click "Design" in the Top Right Corner, next to "Sign Out."


Step Two Click on "Template Designer"



Step Three Select "Advanced" At Bottom. 



Step Four Select "Add CSS"



Step Five Add the following CSS Code to remove the bottom "Powered By Blogger" Bar:

#Attribution1 {display: none;}



Step Five And A Half. Add this code below to remove the top blog bar.


#navbar-iframe {display: none;}

Step Six Save changes and scroll to the bottom.  One less sign that your site is on Blogspot!


After that, you should be all set.  Note how I have implemented these codes on this page, and how it makes it difficult to tell that the site was built on Blogspot. 

Question for the Comments:  What are some ways that you can tell whether a website is built on blogger?  What's implied by it being a blogger, rather than an independent site?
