Why did they reject me?

    I was wondering why google Adsense would reject my site teen2queen.com It is ranked top 4 for most its search terms, gets almost 300 visits a day, great content, message board. Why did they reject my site? Well I was wondering if there is any where else to go or what I should do to increase this sites income.

    Interesting. Your site DOES have content. 300 visits/day isn't really as much as you might think, but it's not that bad. OTOH 300 visits per day = 600 impressions per day (as a guess) = 18,000 impressions/month = about $18-$360 in revenue per month. Their 22% cut, if that is indeed their cut, would yield about $4-$75/month. Maybe it's the low visitorship? Did they give a reason? They might not have liked the subject matter...maybe you got a reviewer with a teenage daughter who thinks teenagers shouldn't be subscribing to the whole cosmetics/fashion show thing? (It IS individual reviewers when it comes right down to it.)

    I'd try building up your audience and coming back...

    Unlikely to be low visitorship - after all nearly anyone with a scanky Blogger blog can get accepted, most of whom only have a few visitors a day to begin with. After flicking through your site I'm as baffled as you are - it should have been accepted.

    Hello Robert Tonne,

    Thank you for your interest in Google AdSense. After reviewing your
    application, our specialists have found that it does not meet our
    program criteria. Therefore, we are unable to accept you into our
    program.

    We have certain policies in place that we believe will help ensure the
    effectiveness of Google ads for our publishers as well as for our
    advertisers. We review all publishers, and we reserve the right to
    decline any application. As we grow, we may find that we are able to
    expand our program to more web publishers with a wider variety of web
    content.

    Please note that we may not be able to respond to inquiries regarding
    the specific reasons for our decision. Thank you for your understanding.

    Sincerely,

    The Google AdSense Team

    Right then Robert - the nitty-gritty: have you previously held an AdSense account? What I'm trying to ask is are you trying to sneak back in after being banned?

    Yes - if you've been banned previously you have little hope (you can't kid a kidder ;))

    No, you wouldn't be rejected under those circumstances - that's just crazy. I suspect Robert that there could be someone who has been banned a bit closer than your nephew. That's the only obvious explanation I can think of.

    I suggest YPN if you're in the States. Try AdBrite if you're elsewhere.

    Can you tell me though - straightforward yes or no - have you or anyone else at your address been previously banned from AdSense?

    Maybe you can write to them and ask them how you can improve your site to make it acceptable. Google's first reply is always a cut-and-paste email.

    just open a blog at blogger.com write half a dozen posts about your life in your city and then apply for adsense, you'll get it because blogger belongs to google and that's how it works, then you can use it on any site you wish.
