When do Google employees come back to work to review sites for approval, after the holidays? I applied last December 18 and still waiting for the feedback.
even me .. i have applied on 23 rd and waiting , usually they take 2 days but as holidays in between its getting delayed..whats wrong we will wait
I opened 2 adsense accounts for french friends, they each got approved in 1-2 hours maximum, it was during last holidays. Also opened an account for a friend living in germany, took less than a day for the approval reply. For all three of them I wrote my own website (french site) in the URL field, and it worked even for the german account. So it's not difficult to open an adsense account in Europe, the difficult part is to get it going, but now it's up to my friend to move their asses, I'm not going to write content for them, I'm already providing the platform through adsense revenue sharing.
Have a patience . Many a times google take more time than you expect. They two more than one and half month to say NO to one of my request. So keep waiting.
