Google Adsense is one of the best ad networks to
monetize a website or a blog. It is 90% better than any other CPC advertising programs. It offers the
publishers the highest CTR for every web page. The publishers could make lots
of revenue daily from Google Adsense. Every new webmaster has a
dream to monetize his website with this ad network. But unfortunately, many of
them fail. Adsense has introduced some strict rules and requirements. It seems
hard to get Adsense approval for our own blog. But, we know impossible is
nothing.
The good news is
“Getting Approval of Google Adsense with a New Blog is Now Really Easy”, if you
follow some basic rules from the starting of your blog. When I first tried, I
failed to get approval. But, following these rules, now I have
my AdSense approved account. Thinking about this topic, I made a
decision to share the basic rules of Adsense.
First
Ready Your Blog Before Applying for Adsense:
Adsense moderators
always approve those blogs whose have met up the requirements. First of all,
you should make your blog ready for this process. Check first if your blog
considers these requirements. Now, there are some initial basic requirements
announced by AdSense team, and there are some known hacks and tricks
that work. For example, on this official page it’s mentioned that
for countries like China & India, publishers need to own the site for
minimum 6 month, which is not a thumb-rule. Many Indian bloggers have got approval with one month old domain.
The only thing which really matter here is “Quality”. Let’s look at
factors which will make your blog AdSense ready:
Write High Quality
Contents:
A writing proverb
“Content is King” helps you understand this requirement. A high quality blog is
identified with the high quality contents. Great contents mean
unique, decorated, stated and clear concerted content. Some black hat
webmasters say, copy paste content only between 100-200 words is enough. But, I
may assure him that his journey to Adsense will be certainly finished. I think,
how a blog post or a content could be only between 100-200 words? In my
judgment, it is not possible to completely describe a topic within 100-200
words. And if copy paste content is enough, anybody can declare him as a
blogger. Please keep in mind, Google AdSense doesn’t approve blogs
with copy pasted copyright content. A well optimized blog post should be 100%
unique and above 500-600 words. So, always write blog post above this limit and
it must be unique which clearly determinate the post topic.
Optimize Blog Post with
Meta Tags and Make It Search Engine Friendly:
Optimize your unique
blog post with Meta Title and Description Tag. The meta tags describe what the
content is about to the crawler bots. It is not possible for Adsense
editorial board to check every single website that has applied to get Adsense
approval. So, positively they will use their crawler bots.
The bots will check for every footprint on your blog. That’s why
you should make sure, you have specified these tags with appropriate
information.
Please keep in mind
that your Meta Title should be between 69 characters (including spaces) and
Meta Description should be between 156 characters (including spaces). If you
are using platform like WordPress or Blogger, here are two guides
which will cover all basic SEO requirements:
Have Sufficient Contents
or Posts:
You must lead
sufficient contents or posts on every page and category. In total, you should
have 15-30 blog posts on your whole blog. This is not an official declaration.
But, I recommend everybody to at least have it. So, you should have at least
3-4 posts in every category, tag and page. Google Adsense told that we must
have sufficient contents in every single web page. So, we should add contents
in all pages and categories. There shouldn’t be any blank page without any
content. And these posts have to pass the minimum length of 500-600 words as it
is the best blog post length. The more you increase the length, the more you go
towards to get Google Adsense approval.
Blog Domain Must Old
At-least 6 Months:
As I mentioned above,
in certain countries like India and China, there is a requirement of
6month for domain to apply for AdSense. Here is official
statement from AdSense team:
In some locations, including China and India, we
require publishers to have owned their sites for 6 months. We’ve taken this
step to ensure the quality of our advertising network and protect the interests
of our advertisers and existing publishers.
Some blog domain could
get approved having less old than 6 months. Even, I got my Adsense account with
just two month old domain. Can you imagine? But, the average domain age for
certain geo-location should be 6 months.
Apply Using Root
Domain:
You should always
apply using the root domain like yourdomain.com. Not blog.yourdomain.com.
Be Serious to Choose
Content Images:
Google Adsense doesn’t
approve blogs if they lead to copyrighted contents. Copyrighted means the
things that have been copied from others directory without their permission.
And we make fault everytime when choosing an image. Some people just
go to an image directory, take their suitable images and upload these on their
blogs. Did they ever check if they have permission to use these? Really sad
news is that, most of the webmasters who fail to get Adsense because of this
copyrighted law. And this is really caused by copyrighted images. Here are
guides which will help you to find images for free:
Lead a Nice design and
Blog Structure:
Blog structure is the
basic structure of your blog. So, make sure that you have a nice looking
header, content area, sidebar, footer etc. Always think if the visitors will
like the structure. If people like it, Adsense would definitely like
it. First impression of any blog comes with blog design,
and you can take advantage of any professional looking templates (free or
paid), and use it on your blog.

tech blogs
Check if Your Blog is
Not Blocked by Google:
Be sure that, your
blog is not blocked by Google. Because Adsense will check your blog statistics
on their search engine. Don’t know how to check it? Just search for
“site:yourdomain.com” on Google. If you find out search results, your blog is
not blocked. But, if you not, it is blocked.
Don’t Have Adsense
Prohibited Content:
Adsense has directly
told that, sites with adult contents, copyrighted contents, drug alcohol
related contents, hacking cracking contents, violent contents, weapons related
contents and other illegal contents will not be approved.
Visitors Are Not a
Factor for Approval Yet:
For getting Adsense
approved, visitors are not a factor. Because, you will get approved depending
on your blog quality. It is sure that the Adsense moderator will never check
for visitor count. So,don’t worry about visitors. But, for generating revenues you
must have enough visitors.
Here is one video
where Harsh talked about getting AdSense approval:

Do let me know if you have any particular question related
to AdSense approval, and I would love to answer them. If you enjoyed

·
Fulfill
all the 10 basic requirements that are listed above.
·
Concentrate
your writing to a specific category. This will help you get more traffic and
will be a plus point while applying for Adsense.
·
“Content
is King”, it really is. Write quality posts with more words. Try to explain
more and include more images. Don’t concentrate on keywords. If you post
original content, you will surely get good traffic automatically from search
engines.
·
Check
for Adsense approved websites in your category. This is because, Google does
not accept all categories. Approval for some categories are easy(Medicine,
Health, etc). Whereas for others it’s bit difficult. Also I heard
that some friends running Banking related websites and job portals, always
got bad luck even with good organic traffic and content.
·
Get
some decent traffic from Google search.
·
Apply
for Adsense only after 6 months. During this time, try to create more
content, get some more organic traffic, try applying various
SEO strategies and try to create more SEO friendly webpages.
·
Submit
urls and sitemaps to Google by using Google webmaster tools and analyse your
website performance using Google Analytics.
·
Remove
all ads running on your site before applying for Google Adsense. It’s very
important.
·
Remove
links that are directed to websites that does not comply with Google
guidelines. Eg: A free software download link to an external website.
·
I
have not tried getting adsense approval using YouTube. Only know that the
Adsense approved account(for a website) can be used to monetize a video that is
uploaded from the same account. That is, you need not apply separately for
video ads approval. Vice versa can also be true. The method suggests, uploading
2 or 3 new original videos to youtube and applying for Monetization program
from there. I don’t think it’s an easy idea to create a video. If anybody tried
this, you can confirm it here.
Google adsense being the giant in online advertising, it’s the dream of every blogger or website owner to get his/her adsense account approved. There are certain conditions you have to check regarding your wesite or blog before you apply for adsense approval. Bloggers from USA, Canada and Europe gets adsense approval quickly compared to asians(india,china,.).
THE TRICK THAT WORKED FOR ME
I applied for adsense soon after my
blogspot hosted blog became 6 months old. At first,I got many issues which led
to the application rejection.It includes the page navigation difficulty,about
author page,etc.Each and every time,before sending the next application I tried
my level best,so that the issues were not observed the next time.After 5 or 6
times,I was wondering that “page type” issue was observed,which I was unable to
fix after many applications.
Also,I heard that applying for adsense
many times in quick time will have bad effect. After applying many times,really
I got depressed. But,I got an idea of making my blogspot blog account into a
website. For that I bought a domain through Bigrock. At that time there was no
internet banking facility available for asians in Godaddy. But now it is
available for most of the website registrars including Godaddy and
Bigrock. You canget discount of 35% and more on your
purchase by applying coupon codes. Now,you have two options. The first is to
buy hosting plans. For a new blogger it will be difficult to pay that much
amount. The second and the easiest is to redirect the blogger account to the
new site. After making sure that your site is working properly, reapply for
adsense. If any new problems are detected, just resolve them and apply again.
Most probably, you will get your adsense account approved.
Update(19/09/2014)
It’s almost 2 years since I got my
Adsense approval. All I can say is “Adsense is the best CPC network
for bloggers”. Those days, the websites were a little bit low, and I should say
it was easy to get approval. Today, the scenario has changed completely. It’s
becoming hard and harder to get an Adsense account approved. It does not mean I
am discouraging you. I am just reminding you that the competition has become
little tough. Below, there are some tips and tricks that can guide
you to get Adsense approval.
Ads
that work with Google Adsense
As
the approval of Google Adsense account takes minimum of 6 months and the
chances of getting approved for the very first time is difficult, you can try
Adsense compatible ads to run on your site. One of the ads that comply with all
Google’s policies and TOS is Infolinks.
Infolinks is basically an intext advertising company. Means that, it display
ads when someone move the mouse pointer over words highlighted by infolinks.
You get paid when someone views or clicks the ad. The good thing about
infolinks is that, the publisher approval is very easy. With 2 or 3 posts and
even with a new domain, you get instant approval. The earnings are not very
high compared to Adsense. But, Infolinks is the best intext advertising network
for bloggers.
There
are other ad formats supported by Infolinks other than intext. ‘Infold’
which displays on bottom when you get a visitor through organic search, ‘intag’
which displays related keywords at the end of the post, ‘inframe’ which floats
on both sides which is a full screen ad on entrance or exit. Turning all the
units active will increase your earnings quickly.
Setting
up Infolinks is very easy. It has codes for every platform- WordPress, blogger,
Joomla or whatever. Infolinks wordpress plugin makes the installation and
settings easier on WordPress. From the infolinks publisher center, you can
customize the ads displayed on each and every website. Infolinks has
various payment options viz PayPal, Bank Wire, eCheck, Western Union,
ACH (only for U.S. bank accounts) and Payoneer. The minimum payment
threshold is $50.
I
used infolinks along with Google Adsense and encountered no issues. I got paid
and i can assure you that it is legit. You can signup using the below link.
