Customize Blogger Cookies Notification Bar

Blogger Cookies notification

Google Blogspot users frequently get this automated Cookies notification on their blogs for EU visitors.
The cookie message appears at the top of your blog.

Though the notification is annoying but here is why it is important:
European laws require that digital publishers give visitors to their sites and apps information about their use of cookies and other forms of local storage. In many cases these laws also require that consent be obtained.

It is a publisher's responsibility to ensure that the Notification bar is shown on his blog and it should not be disabled in any case using CSS or JavaScript unless the publisher is already displaying a custom bar notifying users about the use of cookies on his site.

all blogspot blogs using the default .blogspot.com sub-domains ( country-code Top Level Domain or ccTLD) or custom domains (be it  .com, .net, .org etc.) will automatically show the following sticky Notice at the top of the page when a user visits that blog from a browser with an European IP:

An Unbiased Infolinks Review

Today, I will be going over the adnetwork, infolinks.com in my own way. let's find out if it is a good adsense alternative or one that can be used with adsense. Discovering Infolinks I found out about infolinks while searching for AdSense alternatives when I was unable to get AdSense approved for my account, Then I applied with my previous blog but darn, the blog probably did not meet their demands and I was never approved. Few months laters I got AdSense approved for my blog but that didn't live long enough, to my detriment and after been blown off by the infamous Adsense Disablement ish (made me ditch my previous blog)... Months after setting up my new blog, I had to look for an AdSense alternative, and every research I made, didn't exclude Infolinks, and this made me think highly of them and so I had to give an application another shot, this time within a day, I got approved to display ads on my blog... Bam! Such a nice achievement... Getting To Understa...
