    Hi All,

    I have a website www.SinghVikash.in. This is a 1 year old and I have around 100+ articles on it. I applied for Google Adsense and in first review they gave me partial approval. After 3 days they disapproved it with the reason "Copyright Material". I know I have not copied any thing. All articles are written by me. The images on the site are created by me. The only issue that I think is I have posts on Google services where I have taken screenshot of data and images of my Google account. Does this consider as copyright issue?

    Also I have a post where I have shown the screenshot of a Govt.website. Is that a Copyright issue?

    Hi,

    Looking at your site I didn't see anything that would grant a rejection. I'm thinking the AdSense team may have missed something. Try to contact them, but I wouldn't get my hopes too high if I were you: they're very famous for their "not giving a cr@p" attitude about small individuals.

    Also, I don't think showing screenshots would be a copyright issue. I mean if someone visits the site they can see it themselves, you didn't steal anything.

    However, I'm not a lawyer so don't take my advice for granted.

    Let us know how thing go,
    Steve

    Did you scrape content and paste on your website. Any duplicate content?

    I see that you have some pictures in your site, I'm not sure if these are the screenshots that you are referring to, but if you got them from somewhere else you may want to link to the site you got it from.
