Top 12 STEPS TO BE ACCEPTED BY GOOGLE AdSense IMMEDIATELY

Do you want to create a Google AdSense account to start earning passive income with your web projects?

In order for AdSense to accept you in its program, you must pass a filter and meet a series of requirements.

In this post, I explain everything you need to know so that AdSense approves your account immediately.

WHAT IS GOOGLE AdSense?

Google AdSense is a system that allows us to insert ads from the Google platform through the implementation of a code on our website and generate passive income every time a user clicks on them.

For Google AdSense to work and generate income for you, it is necessary to have a website with traffic.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO START WITH AdSense?

To start working with AdSense ads, the essential thing is a website and creating a Google AdSense account.

However, before you can insert ads on your website, you will need to request activation of your account. And that is where you can find a surprise since you must pass the AdSense filter.

If you do not meet the conditions, AdSense will simply reject your application.

Here you have a checklist of 12 steps that you must carry out in order to be accepted by AdSense immediately, and you can start generating income from NOW.

1. BE 18 YEARS OLD

Google AdSense does not accept anyone under the age of 18 on its platform, and you will not deceive them by misrepresenting your age and date of birth.

IMPORTANT: Be careful not to make a mistake when entering your date of birth. You could write it incorrectly and that this was the reason that AdSense rejected you for no other apparent reason. It seems so obvious, but it happens.

2. WRITE QUALITY CONTENT

Google, and AdSense by extension, is interested in websites adding value to users to keep their advertisers happy and encourage clicks on ads, which is also of interest to you. If Google wins, so do you.

Bet on unique and original content.

3. HAVE ENOUGH CONTENT

It is not about having a specific number of articles. You could have 200 completely irrelevant articles published and get rejected by AdSense. The ideal number is between 15 and 20 ORIGINAL and quality articles.

You must have enough content so that AdSense can review it, check its quality and verify the theme of your website.

4. TAKE CARE OF THE UX OF YOUR WEBSITE

Basically, you must take care of two usability factors of your website: appearance and loading time.

If your users find your website visually poor, or it takes a long time to load, the same will happen to Google AdSense.

Bad design or slow loading time can cause your users to close the browser window and increase the bounce of your web page.

Regarding the appearance, today it is free to create a visually optimal website using a CMS like WordPress and a free template.

As for the loading time, you need quality hosting.

5. REVIEW THE THEME OF YOUR WEBSITE

Google AdSense is very strict with its content policy and there are certain topics that are banned from the start.

Therefore, before submitting your request, please make sure that your website does not rely on or touch any of these “prohibited content”.

AdSense could also reject you for inserting a link to a website that is one of these banned topics.

Here is a list of content prohibited by AdSense:

Adult content.
Derogatory content.
Drug-related content.
Alcohol-related content.
Tobacco-related content.
Health care content.
Hacking content.
Content with compensation programs.
Fake content.
Violent content.
Weapon-related content.
Illegal content.

6. PRIVACY POLICY PAGE

If you think that a “privacy policy” page is meaningless on a content blog, you are dead wrong.

It's so important that if you don't have this page, AdSense won't even bother to check if you meet the rest of their conditions.

The Privacy Policy page is an essential requirement for Google to accept your AdSense account, and you can start inserting ads on your website.

7. “ABOUT US” PAGE

Google AdSense needs to know that your website is a real site with real people behind it and not a site managed by bots with scraped content and the sole purpose of generating clicks and income.

It is something that your users also need to be able to trust your website.

Be sure to create an “About Me” or “About Us” page where you explain who you are and what your users will be able to find on your website.

8. “CONTACT” PAGE

A “Contact” page allows you to give your users the opportunity to interact with you. In this way, you generate conversations, trust, and more loyal users.

Google AdSense will value the fact that you care about your users and take them into consideration beyond the fact that they click on your ads.

Tip: Include your social profiles on the contact page as well.

9. VERIFY THAT THE NAME AND EMAIL OF AdSense APPEAR ON YOUR WEBSITE

Be sure to include your name and THE SAME email address somewhere highly visible on your website, such as the “Contact” and “About Us” pages. In the screenshot of the previous point, you can see an example of this.

This simple procedure will help AdSense to verify that you are not a bot, that you are the same person who has made the request to activate your account.

This will speed up your approval, so you can start placing ads and generating revenue sooner.

10. USE A TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN INSTEAD OF SUBDOMAINS

This IS NOT ESSENTIAL but using a top-level domain instead of a subdomain gives the first signal to both Google and your users that your website is a serious project.

Today for less than five euros you can buy your own domain. I recommend that you do this if you want to increase your chances of getting your AdSense account accepted.

11. REMOVE ADS FROM OTHER NETWORKS

Although Google AdSense does not prohibit you from monetizing your blog with other advertising platforms, it is best to leave your website free of ads when you apply to AdSense.

Once you receive the approval of AdSense, you will be able to use those ads from other networks again.

12. REVIEW TRAFFIC SOURCES

Typically, your traffic comes from search engines, social networks, your list of subscribers, referrals on other websites, etc. All of these are considered by AdSense to be genuine and lawful traffic sources.

Before making your request to Google AdSense, review your traffic sources and check that you are not attracting visits from other types of sources that Google rejects and considers illegal.
