Remove 'Powered by Blogger' Attribution From Template

To permanently remove or delete the attribution gadget from your template so that it may neither load nor display on your blogspot blog, then follow the steps below:

1. Go To Blogger > Template
2. Backup your Template
3. Click Edit HTML
4. From the "Jump to widget" section click on "Attribution1"
   
5. Delete the entire widget code that looks similar to the one shown in the image below, starting from <b:widget> and ending at </b:widget>:
   If you expand the code, it looks similar to this one:

   <b:widget id='Attribution1' locked='true' title='' type='Attribution' visible='true'>
                       <b:includable id='main'>
           <b:if cond='data:feedbackSurveyLink'>
             <div class='mobile-survey-link' style='text-align: center;'>
               <data:feedbackSurveyLink/>
             </div>
           </b:if>

           <div class='widget-content' style='text-align: center;'>
             <b:if cond='data:attribution != &quot;&quot;'>
              <data:attribution/>
             </b:if>
           </div>
           <b:include name='quickedit'/>
         </b:includable>
   </b:widget>

6. Delete and save your template. You are all done!
