Site does not comply with Google policies - AdSense Application Disapproved
Did you recently applied for Google AdSense account and it was rejected with the reason - Site does not comply with Google policies? Let us discuss the solution to get your AdSense approved.
Google introduced AdSense network sometime in year 2003 and I am one of the early adopters of this advertising system. I have been very happy with the system and the way it works. However, many new bloggers and webmasters are finding it very difficult to get in to the AdSense system. Google has been very strict on reviewing the websites for quality and adherence to the AdSense policies. They even went live with a Limited AdSense Accounts for Host Partner Sites in order to further improve the quality of their Ad network.
If your account is just disabled, do not rush with an appeal. Read some tips on how to appeal effectively to increase the chances of getting your account back.
Let us come back to the subject. One of the primary reasons why Google reject many AdSense applications is, the site does not comply with Google Policies. When the application is submitted, Google will do a manual review of the site on which the AdSense will be used. If they find the website violate some of their policies, they will respond with a message which look like this:Issues:
Site does not comply with Google policies
Further detail:
Site does not comply with Google policies: We're unable to approve your AdSense application at this time because we feel that your site does not comply with Google AdSense policies or webmaster quality guidelines. It's our goal to provide our advertisers sites that offer rich and meaningful content, receive organic traffic, and allow us to serve well-targeted ads to users. We believe that currently your site does not fulfill this criteria.
Let us analyze why Google reject applications with this reason. Google wants to make sure the AdSense Ads are displayed only on sites that meet certain quality criteria to make sure the overall quality of its ad network is not affected by some low quality sites. How to comply with AdSense policies and get your AdSense application approved
The solution to this problem may be different for different sites. To get your AdSense application approved, first thing you need to take care is, don't rush with an appeal. Take a few weeks to analyze your site and check what may have gone wrong. Google does not tell you exactly what is the reason for disapproval but a careful analysis by yourself can tell you what is wrong with your site.
Here is a checklist which you can use to inspect your site and look for Google AdSense policy compliance:
You can read the complete AdSense Program Policies and make sure your site comply with all the requirements.
One of the important things to note is, don't hurry to submit an appeal as soon as you make one or two changes. Instead, spend several days going through various pages of your site and also checking against the AdSense policies and make sure your site comply with each and every requirement.My site complies with all AdSense policies, but still disapproved
This is one of the common complaints from many publishers. Their application was rejected by Google even though they believe their site fully meets all policy requirements. There are many possibilities:
1. Google reviewers may have misunderstood some aspects of your site and thought you are in violation of some policies.
2. Google reviewers may have found some violations that you may have missed.
3. If you are participating in revenue sharing sites like Techulator, IndiaStudyChannel etc, the host site may have certain violations that is beyond your control to resolve.
4. Google may have some reasons to disapprove your application but they don't want to tell you the exact reason, so chose to give a very generic reason. One of the possibilities is, you may have had another AdSense account in the past which was disapproved later. Google does not allow anyone to have another AdSense account if one account was disapproved in the past. In this case, your only option is to depend on someone else to apply for an AdSense account and you use his account with his permission to monetize your online inventory. You may have to make some arrangements to receive revenue from the other person who own the AdSense account.
If you find it impossible to get into this program, you may want to consider AdSense alternatives like Yahoo Bing Network. You may read this article to compare Yahoo Bing Ads with Google Ads.
