Google Adsense site approval.
today I'll be taking you through the best practices
to help you get your site approved by google Adsense.
I will be giving you three recommendations
to increase the chances of getting your site's approval status to 'ready'.
Before diving into the best practices, let me introduce them to you.
The first best practice is to make sure your site has the correct ad code.
Next, we have our second practice
on having the site available.
Last but not least, we will talk about our programme policies
to ensure the site is policy compliant.
So, let's get started.
The first best practice is to make sure your code is complete and correct.
After you've generated the ad code
you will need to place the ad code into the HTML of your site.
You need to place the ad code in the head tag
or at the top of the body of your page
without making any changes.
Please make sure you've placed the code
into the same site you've added in your Adsense account.
Alternatively, you can verify your site ownership
in Search Console instead.
If we detect that you've verified your site in Search Console
we'll continue checking if your site is ready to show ads.
The second best practice is to make sure your site is reachable.
We often review websites that may be down or not loading correctly.
Therefore, we are unable to review these sites.
Make sure that the URL you used to sign up for the Adsense account
is correct and up and running globally.
Your site would be unavailable if you need a password to access the site.
If your site's login is password-protected
consider temporarily removing the login screen
so that we can reach your site.
Also, make sure you are not blocking our crawler
in your robots.txt file to avoid any crawler issues.
You can see more details on why your site might be unreachable
by clicking on the Help Centre link that's in the description below.

The final best practice is to make sure your site is policy compliant.
Please review our programme policies and content policies in particular.
We've observed three main violations by our publishers
that we'll highlight next to help you avoid them.
The first violation is low-value content.
Make sure the content is original and valuable to your users.
The second violation is having replicated content.
Ensure that your content is unique
and it's not repetitive on different pages of your site.
When the same content is found replicated on your pages
or on other sites, your site won't be approved.
The third and last main violation is site navigation.
Users need to be able to easily navigate your site.
This can be achieved by categorising your content
using menu bars and so on.
![]() |

Keep in mind that we may review all pages of your site
and not just the sign-up URL where you place the ad code.
That's why it's very important to make sure each page has valuable content
that is not repetitive and is easy to navigate.
In addition to these, we advise placing ad code
on the most popular page of your site
which will trigger our system into recognising your ad code
and speed up the activation process.
Last but not least, keep your site in the sites list
as removing it might delay the review process.
To summarise, here are the most important points
to get your account activated.
1) Copy the code exactly as it appears in your Adsense home page.
2) Make sure your site is reachable.
3) Review our programme policies.
We hope this video helps you better understand
how you can get your site approved.
