Requisites to apply Adsense

In order to apply to Google Adsense, your website has to meet these requirements:

• Write quality content: You have to create great content in order to grow your website, engage an audience and gain domain authority, doing this, AdSense is going to accept your website easy, you only have to create good content, match search intention to keep growing and you will do it.
• Avoid plagiarism: create your own content, be original and avoid copy/paste from another sites, this is pretty common, but google lower your ranks and you can loose all your traffic.
• Age: You need to be 18 years old in order to be accepted.
• Content policy: Adsense is going to refuse your website if your niche is about: adult content, tobacco, alcohol or drugs, insulting content, strong violence, piracy, false content, weapons, illegal content, so stay away from doing this.
• Using a domain: Using a domain is recommended, but nowadays you can monetize blogger websites, so you can start for free, I don’t recommend this though, as sometimes blogger sites can be seen by google as spam sites, a good domain will help you wonders with SEO and if you create a youtube channel, you can’t monetize both, a youtube channel and your blog in blogger.
• Privacy policy: In order to get serious with a website and have a more professional look, you have to create this page on your website along with a cookie policy, about us, and an author page for every content creator of your website. these are mandatory pages, so, start by creating these from the very beginning.
• Traffic source: You need organic traffic, of course promoting on social media will give you a lot of traffic, but, I recommend having at least 60% of your website traffic as organic, this is not too hard, but it’s going to take some time, so if you have not reached this already, wait a couple of months.
• Pageviews/ sessions: this is not an AdSense rule, but if you want to display ads, wait to have at least 20 pageviews daily, even if you will not earn too much, you will see how your Adsense account is growing.

Getting rejected due to low-value content

Case study

My first website was on the gaming niche, and when I started, as a total newbie, I made a lot of mistakes, the first one, was filling my website with amazon affiliate links, now, the gaming niche is very competitive, RPM and CPC from google are the lowest, so when i started writing real content for the website, it was 3 month old, so I started, and by the 5th month I had 50 posts, and I was getting from 20 to 30 page views daily so I applied to Adsense.

I was very disappointed to see my website rejected by low-value content three times so, I had my legal pages made, 50 posts with 1000 to 1500 words length, and still getting rejected.

Steps to solve low-value content to get accepted in Adsense

1. Search for no indexed URLs

First, I analyzed every URL on the google search console and discovered that only 15 posts were actually indexed, even when I started indexing manually after I finished writing each one, then as time passed I was getting no posts indexed, I kept reading posts and searching, and then I analyzed each post, some of them were using the same keyword, this is called keyword cannibalization and it will affect your SEO as 2 or more posts wil be competing with each other to rank on first position, and ultimately can lead google to lower your rank.

Some of your website pages have to be labeled as no-index, this means that google and another search engines will not crawl these pages, so, label as no-index your legal pages, tag pages and category pages, as wordpress create a page for every tag and category you make, so if you write 20 articles and use 10 differente tags on each post, you will have 20 new posts but 200 new tag pages, so you will spend your index budget fast, plus, this can be seen as thin content by search engines, who will lower your ranks or labeling your site as spam, plugins like Yoast or Rankmath will help you label every tag and category page as no-index.

2. Write at least 1000 words on each page and post

Later some days almost every post was indexed, so I applied again, can you guess right? “low-value content” again, this time I was really feeling like a total failure, but then I remembered, that real people are analyzing my website, maybe they are only seeing my front page as normally, you are submitting your domain name, so it’s normally your frontpage where the analysis start, legal pages, and some random posts, my frontpage was filled with images and almost no text added, so I added 1000 or more words of text to my front page and legal pages.

3. Write more posts

There are a few cases where people write 10 or 15 posts and get accepted instantly, but if you have 30 or more posts and still get rejected, don’t lose hope and keep writing, you will get there, maybe 40 or 50 posts, blog competition nowadays is harder, you have to write at least 150 posts to start earning traffic to earn a decent amount of money, but to really start earning as a full time blogger, some people write up to 600 blog posts, so, you will need patience and persistence.

How to fix “Valuable inventory: no content”

This is a common beginner’s mistake, affiliate programs help webmasters to have another source of income, this may be one of the most important sources of income for them, there are a lot of people earning thousand dollars monthly with affiliate programs so, is not a surprise that you will get rejected with the “Valuable inventory: no content” statement , if their websites are filled with affiliate links and products.

Don’t get me wrong, this is not bad or illegal, but, AdSense will refuse your site if it’s filled with affiliate links and no content, you will still earn money with a website like this if you create a good amount of posts, just keep in mind that, to earn money, real people have to buy that product, and you have to engage your audience with value information, earn those clicks, so to pass this issue and get accepted in google AdSense, create enough content to have just 20% of your content with affiliate links, and don’t fill pages or posts with affiliate links, create a post with at least 1000 words, then use your affiliate links there.

Conclusion

Getting accepted on google Adsense is the first step to start earning money with your website, once you start getting good traffic, you will see an increase in revenue, getting rejected for low-value content or whatever reason you got, is tough, and you will feel you are going nowhere, but believe me, your website will be accepted if you work and set your goals, I hope this short guide was helpful to you and soon you get accepted.

As you research your keywords, and get more experience along the way, you will see there’s a lot of zero volume keywords, even this keyword’s cpc is zero too, but believe me, a lot of these will help you get a lot of pageviews, and even, good sales, so, use this keywords, analize your traffic and pageviews, and if you see no results after some time, you can target another keyword with the same post without making big changes.

Of course, targeting keywords with 0 rpm or cpc its going to hurt your ads revenue, but targeting high paid keywords is going to sink every post into the last google search page and you will get zero traffic, so do a good research, don’t be affraid to use zeo volume keywords, and start creating good content for your audience.

Narrow your niche

Fashion is a big topic, you can post about a lot of things, so, you may want to narrow your niche, as an example, you can start a post about best airport fashion outfits, then you start creating a series of posts about using resort outfits and accesories, by doing this, you are talking about clothes for people who travels, or is going to travel somewhere, create a good interlinking strategy to get your audience read an article after another, and to pass page rank.

Narrowing down too much is not recommended, and try to avoid creating seasonal posts, of course this posts are going to get you a lot of pageviews when the season start, but once that season finish, your traffic will go down, so unless yo create at least 30 fashion posts about every seasonal outfit you can, it doesn’t worth it.

Starting a big fashion blog
