    Hey guys,

    I've been having problems getting my adsense account approved from Google. This the forth time they rejected my website and this error popped up for the second time.

    Can anyone advice over what I might be doing wrong. My site is located in my signature space.

    This is the reason they presented me with:

    Looking forward to replies.

    Thanks!

    Well, they are basically saying that you need to have original content that is not found anywhere else on the web
    except for on your websites. Make at least 10 articles before applying.
    Also, to verify that you are the owner of the page you could write an "About" page where
    you tell abit about the website and provide information such as your name and email/adress.

    Though when taking a further look at your website I can't see anything missing and the content don't appear to be stolen.
    Quote from Google:
    "In order to prevent user confusion, publishers may not display Google ads or search boxes on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colours as the Google ads or search boxes on that site."
    You might want to delete the ad you got on your website since it's easily mixed up with adsense ads.

    I have written a whole 1100 word article on this at my website.
    You can find it here: http://www.xmakemoneyonline.com/how-to-get-approved-by-adsense/
    Hope it helps. =)

    Thanks for the response.

    1) I got over 20 pages of VALID content on the website.
    2) All content was written by MYSELF.
    3) I'm not offering any incentives to people for clicking on adds on my website either.

    You're right, I don't have an ABOUT page. Might be a good idea to write one. So that helps.

    Any more advice people?

    Thanks

    google is really hard to get accepted into now. where is most of your traffic coming from? that could have a lot to do with it as well

    Ye, I was thinking the same.
    Quote from google again:
    "For example, publishers may not participate in paid-to-click programs, send unwanted emails or display ads as the result of the action of any software application. Also, publishers using online advertising must ensure that their pages comply with Google's Landing Page Quality Guidelines. "

    Are you breaking any of these things?

    I'm starting to think more and more the same as my domain is a month old and I haven't really started to get any search engine traffic on it YET. Does this classify as "Unacceptable site content"?

    Also Wulkanen, in your article you said we can send Adsense a nice email - What email address do I use for this?

    I was thinking I start to generate some solid traffic and wait out a couple months until I start to get PROPER traffic and then approach adsense again. Would you guys agree?

    Thanks

    I also said that it's basically a myth that you need much traffic for a website in order to get approved.
    Anyways, you can see here how to contact them: https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/request.py
    As stated, you might want to open a thread in their forum first.

    Thanks for the link :)

    Also, when I resubmitted my site after making corrections, I did NOT submit a fresh sitemap. So the reason Adsense rejected me last time was still cached in Google. Can this be a problem?

    I don't really know if they look at the sitemap. You should wait at least some days between each attempt to get accepted.
