Hi Guys - I have a gaming website where I add games reviews, news articles. All original content. My adsense account was not approved by google. So I am here to learn from experienced people, where did I lack. My Website: http://www.levelunlocked.net I dont have much traffic. I get daily 30-40 visitors in a day out of 10-15 are google organic. I have all the required pages. (I assume) So where exactly, am I missing?? Regards PC
I'm only a noob so I don't know what I'm talking about but do you think that they are unhappy at the Sponsors section in your sidebar? Maybe they don't approve of it..
Dude you are using copyrighted material without disclaimer, like the brand names , games names etc additionally you need to increase some traffic too but still , traffic does not have much concern but content do, I hope you got my point
Dude, now that's something I wont take it. That's utter crap. People sitting behind those computers are just some big nerds. GOOGLE is having fun due to its monopoly. Some get there website approved with 5-10 posts not even with about us page and all other bullshit people keeps on saying. I had everything required for it. It's just its up-to there whims and fancies now. Seriously !!
you are not meant to have the word "sponsor" for a start, (or at least NOT where the google ad is) it is potentially too close to clickable images Lets look at your content: http://www.levelunlocked.net/2013/09/ps-vita-tv-not-releasing-europe-usa/ compare with: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/429237/ps-vita-tv-not-releasing-in-us-or-europe-at-this-point/ Very very little differences in the article. I am pretty sure that to have adsense your site needs to be quality, it may be that google is treating your articles as low quality content as it is so close to other articles with just minor differences, and or there is no real added value originating from your content. have you checked your backlink profile? Adsense has closed down peoples adsense account, and sent them a letter indicating that it is their backlinks, and SEO tactics that are responsible. To be honest, I think your traffic is to low to be worried about monetizing.
You look very desperate for adsense but you are careless as well, If you wont take it then dont , you asked so I told you , you copy paste the articles and think that you have created a site ? I can create a clone of digital point but this does not qualify me for adsense nor its A SITE , its a clone and so is yours, Those people who get accepted easily had worked hard in the past to get an adsense account , then they can add upto 500 sites in it, so then it does not matter your site is a week old or a year , or it has 10 visits per day or 10k, so stop wasting your time and work on your site
They maybe using adsense on those sites but might not have used them to get approval - very big difference. I would say though that some of the bad advice you've been given on this thread appalls me. Check out my thread 'Adsense Myths'
I dont give a shit what do you think. Surely I have looked upon some sites for news, but every damn article is unique. Stop giving lecture.
As far as I can see, your texts are not 100% unique.. and about danyalsadd, he's just trying to help you... you came here, asking an opinion and help, and you can't accept the truth... P.S.: I must agree with You in one thing, Google should write exactly what the problem is, they only send freakin automated messages that something is not wrong, check guidelines, bla bla... try to remove "sponsors" and leave blank space there...
It all comes down to quality. Google doesn't want to have Adsense publishers that are not following Google Webmaster TOS as well as not providing a high quality user experience. You can have the coolest looking site on the block, but if your content isn't good, your traffic won't be quality. Google wants Adsense publishers with sites that have value for the visitor. Get some original, high quality articles/reviews written for your site if you have to. Add a couple reviews a day for a few weeks until you have a nice stock of 50+ excellent articles up. Your posts/reviews need to be more than a hundred or so words. Google loves content. Try to shoot for 400-500 words in a post if you can. It's not 100% necessary, but anything less looks really thin in the eyes of Google. Do some video reviews and put them up on a YouTube channel. Embed those videos on your site. Set up your site so it's user friendly and people can find exactly what they're looking for. Break your reviews down into categories across your main navigation bar. Shooters | Sports | Adventure | Gear | News Then put your reviews in the appropriate categories and you've got a solid site structure. Users love this. Google loves this. Leave some quality comments on some blogs in your niche and link to your site if possible. Build a relationship with other bloggers in the gaming niche. See if you can rank for some terms and get traffic to your site before you worry about monetizing it. If you don't have 100+ visitors a day, you're wasting your time trying to make money from your site. Adsense will earn you about $0.65 a day with that kind of traffic. Make a site people want to visit regularly, then see if you can make money.
mr chopra you might had a adsense account before witch was banned by them > They must give a reason when they disapprove your application . So i guess keep on posting good content and wait and apply again after a couple of weeks . You might get lucky ...
have you looked into other programs? perhaps you can try cpalead, or selling adspace directly to members. What about DP's ad program, have you looked into that? Getting adsense is one thing, actually keeping it *and* getting paid out is another.
I notice the change of ownership post? I assume you just bought it? The previous owners may already have got the site banned hence why you are getting rejected. EDIT : More likely the copy & pasted articles, never noticed that at first.
