Google AdSense! One of the most easiest, trusted and professional way
of earning money by showing your passion towards writing and sharing
the knowledge. Google AdSense is trusted by many advertisers and
publishers from the past few years, and usually they never accept anyone
randomly who is trying to apply for an account. You need to show them
the most professional approach of getting your account accepted, else
Google will simply throw your application aside.
Statistics say that Google AdSense accepts only 3 accounts of every
1000 applications they receive each day. If you are trying to get onto
the account or has been rejected earlier, follow these simple guidelines
to get your own AdSense account in just 3 simple days. Though these
below tips won’t get you the account approved instantly, but will surely
work if you try inheriting each step mentioned below. I’m sure it
worked for 60% of people who commented here and mailed me from the past
couple of years.
Get Google AdSense Approval Within 3 Days:
So before getting started, make sure you follow these guidelines
without fail, else your application will be rejected without any further
pending approval. Remember that everything which I mentioned below
counts. Don’t compromise on number of posts, own domain, good design and
other metrics, else the chances of rejection is higher at your end. So
here we go, the 15 most important guidelines to follow before applying
to Google AdSense.
Minimum Posts/Articles/Pages:
If you are using WordPress, make sure your website/blog has at least
40 quality articles which are not copied from anywhere else. Your
content on the articles should be extremely rich and make sure you use
relevant images where ever required. Try to include two lengthy articles
of 2000 words each, which should be absolutely stunning while anyone
reads them on your website. If you are using HTML website or any other
non CMS version of blog, make sure you have atleast 50 pages on your
website in form or articles or landing pages.
If you miss providing this any of the above information on your
website, Google might reject your application saying Insufficient
Content or Unacceptable Site Content. So make sure they see enough
content on your website before applying the program. The more the
content, the better chances of approval.
Prohibited Website Niches:
Statistics show that your account will go through a faster approval
process if you have more quality articles on Health, Internet Marketing,
Business, Law, Technology, Entrepreneurship, Travel, Lifestyle and
Social Media. Google will take your application as a serious offense if
your website contain any of the prohibited content mentioned in this
link here.
Some studies have also proved that Google AdSense might reject your
approval if your website is on event blogging and micro niche blogging.
In this particular blogging, you limit your blog content to only one
particular subject and create a spam domain around it to rank higher.
Eg: www.mayweathervspacquiaomatchonline.com (Mayweather vs Pacquiao
Match Online). In some cases, if you have observed Google Ads in these
of websites, probably they have applied the account through an another
account and placed the ads in this event niche blogging to earn quick
money.
No Third Party Ads or Programs:
Before applying to AdSense, make sure you don’t allow or place any
other third party banner ad code on your website. Google (employees)
will strictly look into your website manually and they hate seeing some
third party ads installed in your website. Stay away from Infolinks,
Chitika, Yahoo Ads or any other third party network to get the first
impression clean on your website. Make sure you put only the fresh
content and some regular widgets on the website.
Also, stay away from affiliate links such as hosting programs, Amazon
affiliates, Clickbank or anyother until your account is approved.
Website Design and User Experience:
Google always want their users to get the best experience while
browsing through any website they refer. Maintaining a clean design with
good navigation and user experience will boost your chances of getting
AdSense approved in the first attempt itself. This is one of the major
guidelines where lot of people miss the basics. Google believes that if
you maintain professional color scheme on your website, the user might
be willing to come back and click on the relevant ads which are
displayed under your content.
So make sure you maintain a neat and clean design before applying to
AdSense. I would recommend you to buy one professional template anywhere
and get it installed on your website without effecting the loading
speed or easy navigation.
Google Analytics Code:
Adding Google Analytics code on your website is a trusted factor for
the approval. Adding Analytics onto your website show that you are
actively tracking your visitors and is much serious about the statistics
of your users who visit your website. If you haven’t created one,
click here to register
the program. Once registered, get your tracking code by creating new
account under the accounts tab and enter your website name, URL and
other required details. Place the code on each page of your website to
track the data instantly.
Google/Bing Webmasters Verification Page:
Just like Google Analytics, you need to even verify with Google
Webmaster program, which has the complete access to your website in
search perspective. With Google Webmaster Tools, you can track your
website critical errors and fix them on a daily basis.
Click here to register
and click on “Add a Site” to enter your website URL. Verify your
website ownership through any of the recommended method and complete the
process to keep your account functioning actively.
Also, adding the
Bing Webmaster Tools
to your website will add more credibility to your domain that you are
serious about the website search visibility. Though this guideline is
pretty easy to perform, many people will get comfortable without knowing
the importance of installing these tools.
Adding these two verifications on your website code or server will show good results on search visibility as well.
XML Sitemap Page:
Creating a sitemap doesn’t take too much of your time. If you are using WordPress, I recommend
Google XML Sitemaps By Arne Brachhold. And if you are using any other platform, I recommend you to checkout
XML-Sitemaps
website for more info. Installing a sitemap on your website can help
search engine bots to index your website faster, which is again a trust
factor to bots about the website trustworthiness.
Robots.txt
Creating Robots.txt file on your website will get rid of indexing
unwanted junk onto Google. I have written a detailed post few days back
on
how to write perfect robots.txt
for your website. Else you can also check SEOSiren.com own robots.txt
file and simply copy it to your WordPress website. I have restricted all
the unwanted data indexation to search engines, which adds a lot of
value to your SEO efforts of ranking the pages higher on Google. Plus,
robots.txt file is another great feature to add it your website as a
trust factor.
Alexa Rank:
Google AdSense considering the Alexa rank has always been a
controversy, as many people disagree that Google doesn’t care about your
global rankings. Trust me, I strongly believe that this is one of the
most important checklist any manual operator checks before even opening
your website statistics. How can anyone quickly judge about a website
performance? The answer is simple, and its Alexa ranking. So make sure
you install the Alexa toolbar and read my eBook on
how to boost Alexa ranking within 30days.
Note: Before applying to AdSense, make sure your website global Alexa
ranking is less than 400K for faster approval process. Usually the
website above this rank is considered to be new and underestimated that
no much data is seen on them.
Important Pages:
Google wants to know your identity before you signup to their AdSense
program. So make sure your create the following pages on your website
as soon as possible.
- Privacy Policy
- Disclaimer Policy
- Terms of Usage
- Contact Us
- About Us (Write your name and address through which you applied the AdSense account)
In the about us section, clearly mention who you are, and why is this
website made for, what is the benefit people get out of your website.
The more clear, the better the chances of your approval. Keep your
spelling mistakes, grammar and punctuation clear when you do this.
Custom Domain and Email ID:
A lot of people get create websites through blogspot and free
WordPress platforms to apply AdSense. Note that AdSense team will take a
custom domain more seriously rather than the free domain name.
Investing 2$ on a domain name is not a big deal when you have health
chances of getting approval with other factors like mentioned above. So
don’t give yourself a second chance to apply the AdSense program and get
your own domain as early as possible.
Once you have your own domain, create an email ID with your name
(name@website.com) to apply the AdSense program. Eg: satish@seosiren.com
will get more attention compared to satishseosiren@gmail.com. Note that
your free website programs give you the privilege or adding your custom
domains without paying any additional fee.
Decent Traffic:
Though a lot of portals, forums mention that Google AdSense doesn’t
require any certain amount of pageviews to approve your account, I still
feel and experienced the treatment if you have a decent traffic. Let
your blog age a few weeks (atleast 2 months) before you rush to apply
the AdSense program. I would always recommend you to stay until your
website get a minimum of 50+ visitors per day. If your website is not
getting enough traffic, the chances of rejection is much higher when
compared to other guidelines.
Once your website is ready with all these above guidelines,
click here to apply to Adsense, and make sure you have gone through the
Google AdSense TOC for more information on the program.
Leave your comments to check if your doing good with the process. And
if your AdSense was rejected despite of following all these above
mentioned guidelines, shoot me a mail to satish@seosiren.com and I will
help you out with a free AdSense consultation. Stay tuned to SEOSiren
