One of the common mistakes that
every Blogger makes and that I made many times before finally getting approved.
Even though there are people out there who say that having a Privacy Policy for
a Blog doesn’t makes sense but they are wrong.
A Privacy actually describes to
your readers about what they will get on your Blog , what they should do and
what they should not. So obviously there is nothing bad in having a Privacy
Policy. While it can affect somehow on your Adsense Approval, you must give it
a try. You can write it yourself or find Privacy Policy Generators online (You
don’t need a lawyer anyway).
2. About Page
An About has major role and
importance if you don’t want to apply for Adsense. But when it comes to
Adsense, they are about Zero chances of getting approved if you are not showing
this page.About page simply describes about you and your Blog . This will not
only help you establish a relationship with readers but it will also make them
trust upon you.
3. Contact Us Page
It’s quite obvious that everyone
has his/her own opinion. What one of your readers likes may be bothering
someone else. Than it is better to give them opportunity to speak up to you and
tell how they feel about your Blog, what they want to be edited , what they
liked or hated.
It will also show the Google
Adsense Team that is viewing your site that you actually care about your
readers and not only the money and Adsense.
4. Name/ Email Verification
Make sure to put you Name and
Email address in some easily visible area like About Me and Contact Us pages.
It will confirm to Google Adsense Team that it is the same person who applied
for Adsense and not some spam, crappy bots.
5. Age Verification
I’m really laughing out typing
this.
Why?
Because this is where I
encountered a problem. Instead of 18, I accidentally published my age as 17
while on Adsense Application Form, it was accurately 18.
Hence there started a problem .
Because Google Adsense is not for under 18 people. I realized this problem
after being disproved a few times without any legitimate reason. So I advice
you to be accurate while typing your age.
6. Minimum Number of Posts
There is no exact answer. Not
even one. Because I have seen very established Blogs with 400+ posts and their
owner telling me that Google Adsense is rejecting them while somewhere ,people
with 40,50 posts are enjoying making money. Exactly what I said that there is
no actual answer. However, we can always predict things. According to my
experience , you should only apply after you have more than 70 posts. Posts
length should must be 500+ words too.

7. Design
Your Blog is the biggest thing
after Content. This represents your expertise ,experience and Professionalism.
So be careful because anything can kill your Chances.
8. Content Type
Be careful with what type of
content you are publishing. Because it is something that truly matters. Google
Adsense is not for Pornographic, Illegal Items, Drugs or other Blogs / Sites
like that. Also Adsense team won’t be willing to allow you to step in if you
own a Non English Blog. Having posts shorter than 300 words in length is also
Red Signal.
9. Providing Value
Don’t complain about not making
money and don’t clearly state that your are Blogging for Money only and have no
other interest in it. Because this will show them that you will not be
providing values to your readers any day. Hence another Red Light glows up.
10. Top Level Domain
Those are gone far away when
Adsense used to approve “Blogspot” and “WordPress.com” Blogs. As for today, you
must have your own unique domain that specifies your Blog. If you don’t have
one yet, stop dreaming about getting approved with Sub domains and go buy a Top
Level Domain.
eg.[.com]
Another important thing about
domain is it’s age. Because for most of Asian Countries, Adsense has placed an
age restriction. They don’t accept any sites before they are 6 months old.
11. Other Ad Networks
If you have any other Ads placed
like Chitika, Clicksor or anything, it’s time to drop them off.
Even Google Adsense allows you to
use other Ad Networks along with them, it’s better to remove the ads before
Applying and don’t put them back until you get a reply from Adsense Team.
12. Paid Traffic
Google hates the sites that are
getting Paid traffic and mostly penalizes them so there is not a damn chance of
getting Adsense Approval letter for a site that is getting paid traffic. You
can bring traffic from Search Engines or any other way you want but if you want
to earn via Google Adsense the right way, paid traffic is not a solution.
