Hello, a friend of mine is trying to sign up for AdSense in China and is getting a strange series of emails. First he sent his application on 11th november. He got an answer on 19th november saying he should add a sentence in chinese on his webpage and then send back the updated application with the exact url of the page (instead of the domain name like on the application) which he did. Some days later he receives the same email. So he sends back the application with the domain name this time (the sentence in chinese is visible on the homepage AND an internal page) He then receives the same email. Several times. Finally he receives an email saying no, for reasons which don't apply to his case, like whois not being visible/not having the same name as the application. Or the site content not complying with google's rules. Any reason mentionning don't apply. So he sends back an application (the sentence in chinese is still visible) and receive the same email asking to add the sentence in chinese and send back the application with the url updated. Finally he wrote to explaining the strange way. Waiting for an answer. Don't you think they are drinking too much snake wine at adsense china?
After several other attempts, same madness. Adsense china has a big problem in their process for new adsense accounts, does anyone here have the same issue? Endless loop and stupid answers from china adsense support? Have tried with several domain names, following instructions to the letter, always the same process and same ending. Does anyone knows the best place to discuss about this, in chinese or in english?
There are too many "smart people" in china, and therefore many online company set a very straight rule to ensure they are the real owner, not only adsense but happen on some other company like paypal too
