Hello there. I hope that you can help me with my problem. I am currently having second thoughts on pursuing my food recipe blog as I am not sure if it will have high traffic and high adsense earnings. Is a food recipe blog good for adsense? I really need your personal opinion and suggestion on this. If you want to take a look at my site, the link is posted below. http://foodrecipenotebook.blogspot.com/
Google Adsense pretty much rejects all new recipe websites as they offer nothing unique and compelling above wide is already on a zillion other sites. This will especially be true in your case as you are illegally copying at least one your recipes from other websites.
But I don't copy paste content from other recipe blog. I usually get my content from my friends who loves to cook.
I'm not surprised that most of the popular food recipe worldwide has a thing in common and I think its nature to the food industry. You can make it unique from adding other ingredients or in different preparations to make your own signature within the field. In this way Google will consider your site as a hub of information.
