I registered for AdSense around a month ago, possibly longer, and my account is still awaiting approval. Any idea why this is? Has this been happening to anybody else who signed up recently as well?
It's all upto google. They will review your request very carefully and approve when time comes! It will take time. Don't worry!
Sometimes it can take even a month to approve an AdSense account. It's all depend all pressure that AdSense team have. notify about the delay in their official blog. located at adsesne.blogspot.com
Mine got approved within a week. But I guess google is taking some time to approve accounts these days. I suggest you wait. Or send a email to adsense may be that will help
