I signed up for an adesense account monday the second, so more than a week ago. But still no answer I signed up with a yahoo mail adress maybe google block them or something? By the way this is my third attempt... Do you think they will review it, or do they block me or something?
You'll get a reply. From what I can tell, there are thousands of people jumping on the AdSense bandwagon, so Google might be backed up -- the holidays can do that to a company. It doesn't hurt to send them a nice e-mail with all your details.
Signing up with a free email address (yahoo, msn, etc) is not the smartest thing to do. If you are able to maintain a website, you should be able to configure an email address for that domain. It just appears to be much more professional and 'permanent' in the eyes of whoever is reviewing your application. Note: this might play no role in your particular case, but is just an advice in the future when you apply for other ad networks, affiliate programs
It doesn't matter what type of email address you use. Email address is NOT a criteria for the review process.
It took one of my sites two weeks to get reviewed. I agree with howardhsu, your email address doesnt make a difference.
using free email address doesnt make any difference. It is the holiday period where most of their staff are taking their year end leave and that slows down their operation.
I get the feeling they might have flagged you as a repeat applicant and I doubt they'll let you in on YOUR THIRD ATTEMPT. I mean, if they didn't take you the last two times, why would they suddenly change their minds the third time? Did you wait between your applications, or did you just kept applying immediately after they said No? But anyways, I'm leaning toward them having flagged you as a nuisance. I could be wrong, of course. Plus, I bet you kept emailing them asking for an answer, right?
Couple of Questions: Have you or anyone at your address ever been terminated for invalid click activity? Do you live in an OFAC country (http://www.treas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/sanctions/)?
If you have already been banned google wont review your ccount if you sign up with the same name. The Adsense screening algo that filters banned names will block your application.
You could always try, as might have been mentioned, contacting them from a different email address - at least that way you'll get a reply of some sort or another.
