How to Get Google Adsense Approval With A New Blog

Salma Iqbal October 06, 2022

 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 program. 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 the 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 an approved AdSense account. Thinking about this topic, I made a decision to share the basic rules of AdSense.

Google Adsense Approval

First Ready Your Blog Before Applying for Adsense:

Adsense moderators always approve those blogs that 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 the 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 a minimum of 6 months, which is not a thumb-rule. Many Indian bloggers have got approval with the one-month-old domains. The only thing which really matters here is “Quality”. Let’s look at factors that 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 high-quality content. 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 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 posts above this limit and it must be unique and clearly determine 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 the 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 your Meta Description should be between 156 characters (including spaces). If you are using a platform like WordPress or Blogger, here are two guides that will cover all basic SEO requirements:

Have Sufficient Contents or Posts:

You must lead sufficient content 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 us that we must have sufficient content on every single web page. So, we should add content to 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 getting 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 6 months for the domain to apply for AdSense. Here is the official statement from the 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 domains could get approved having less old than six months. Even, I got my Adsense account with just a two-month-old domain. Can you imagine? But, the average domain age for certain geo-location should be six 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 content. Copyrighted means the things that have been copied from others' directories without their permission. And we make fault every time 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? The really sad news is that most webmasters fail to get Adsense because of this copyrighted law. And this is really caused by copyrighted images. Here are guides that will help you to find images for free:

Lead a Nice design and Blog Structure:

A 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. The 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.

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 do not, it is blocked.

Don’t Have Adsense Prohibited Content:

Adsense has directly told that sites with adult content, copyrighted content, drug alcohol-related content, hacking cracking content, violent content, weapons-related content, and other illegal content 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.
