Content

0.72 -> Man, why is it so hard to get approval from Google AdSense?

3.56 -> It is under construction! Not enough content!

5.72 -> You need to fix this! You need to fix that!

7.77 -> Gosh!

8.85 -> I give up.

10.25 -> Now hold the horses, because in this video,

12.44 -> we're going to share with you the things you need to know and do so that your site

16.04 -> can be approved by Google AdSense without any hiccups.

19.08 -> In fact, I'm going to try my best to beat the odds.

21.72 -> If you have been following us,

23.16 -> you know that we often use this domain for demonstration purposes only.

26.85 -> But over the past couple of days,

28.53 -> I've beefed up the website with a number of high quality articles,

31.97 -> created necessary pages such as the privacy policy, disclaimer,

35.85 -> and stuff, and have the entire website

38.37 -> fully functional and easy to navigate.

40.49 -> And I'm going to add this website

42.17 -> to Google AdSense to hopefully have it approved.

45.2 -> I am not putting a lot of hopes on this.

47.21 -> If it gets approved, it's a miracle.

49.4 -> And it proves that you do not need a lot

50.96 -> of traffic and a lot of articles to get approved.

53.29 -> But if it doesn't, well,

55.16 -> what I can guarantee is if I continue to do what I did in the past couple

58.45 -> of days, eventually the site will get approved.

61.48 -> Take it from someone who has done this

63.01 -> multiple times, and this is the proof of it.

65.56 -> But I've got no bragging rights here

67.36 -> because it is actually a fairly simple process.

69.69 -> And it is the same process I've used to get my sites approved

72.8 -> by Google AdSense, and now I'm sharing them with you.

76.37 -> Let's go.

81.44 -> Hey, it's Jack from Rank Math,

83.08 -> the one WordPress SEO plugin that constantly strives to provide you

86.37 -> with the fastest and the most cutting-edge SEO tools.

89.41 -> And on this channel, we provide you with the most up to date SEO knowledge.

93.32 -> So if you are new to our channel, consider subscribing.

96.01 -> Now, having a Google AdSense account

98.13 -> and having your website approved are two separate issues.

101 -> Setting up an account is easy, but there are quite a number of things

104.21 -> to have in place before they approve your site.

106.8 -> And in this video, we are talking specifically about top

109.4 -> level domains, meaning the domains that you have bought,

112.09 -> not domains from sites like Blogger.com, because the process will be different.

116.52 -> For example, this, or Rank Math.

119.24 -> These are top level domains.

121.17 -> Domains that you own and not by a third party.

124.57 -> So, without further ado,

126.04 -> let's start with creating a Google AdSense account from scratch.

129.2 -> If you already have an account,

130.48 -> but you can't get your site approved, feel free to skip ahead.

135.6 -> To start, we have to visit this link.

138.12 -> If this is your first time creating

139.85 -> an AdSense account, you should click on get started.

143.13 -> You need to log into the Google account that you want to sign up for AdSense.

147.97 -> Take note that you can only have one Google AdSense account.

151.12 -> You can't have multiple accounts in your

152.97 -> name but you can have multiple websites approved on the same account.

157.29 -> Now, once you are logged in,

158.81 -> you'll see something like this. You'll need to enter your site,

162.45 -> but if your site is not ready for AdSense

164.81 -> to be reviewed, you can check this for now and add a site later on.

169.53 -> Then you can select for AdSense to reach

171.93 -> out to you for some tips and suggestions, or not.

175.17 -> Next, you need to select your payment country or territory.

179.01 -> This is important.

180.4 -> You need to select the right payment country because you can't change it later.

184.32 -> And you should select the country where

185.93 -> your bank account is located, be it a USD, SGD, INR or whatever currency account.

192.21 -> I live in Singapore and I have a Singapore bank account.

195.64 -> Google needs to verify and pay to that account, so I would select Singapore.

200.57 -> In case you have moved to a new country or territory, you need to cancel your

204.61 -> existing AdSense account and create a new account.

208.17 -> So please select this carefully.

210.56 -> Once you have selected your payment

212.05 -> country, a country specific terms and conditions will appear where you have

216.11 -> to read and accept the terms before your account can be set up.

219.93 -> Once you have checked this, you can now start using AdSense.

223.89 -> Then give it a while and you'll be brought

226.25 -> to the AdSense Dashboard, which means your account is created.

229.49 -> But before you get paid, there are three steps you need to follow.

233.53 -> One is to provide your payment information, which is a required step,

237.36 -> the other is to place Ads on your site,

239.28 -> which is optional and can be done later when your site is approved.

242.45 -> And finally to connect your site with AdSense for it to be approved.

246.37 -> Let's start with the payment step.

248.37 -> Click on "Enter information".

250.69 -> Now you have the option to select either the individual account type or

254.37 -> the business account type, and you can only do this once.

257.77 -> You can't change it later on.

259.33 -> So, for example, if you intend to receive payments to a business bank account

263.41 -> instead of your individual account, but you have not set up your LLC or

267.63 -> Private limited company, do not set up your AdSense account yet.

271.96 -> Get your business account set up before

273.76 -> you provide your AdSense payment information.

275.92 -> And if you intend to receive payments to your personal bank account,

279.09 -> you shouldn't have to worry about this and select "Individual".

282.28 -> Next, you have to provide your full name.

284.92 -> Take note, this is the name that appears on your identity card.

288.89 -> For example, you know me as Jack Cao, but in my identity card there is no Jack,

294.33 -> and in my personal bank accounts there is no Jack as well.

297.77 -> So you have to follow exactly the name

299.89 -> that appears on your identity card and bank accounts.

302.68 -> Otherwise you will have a hard time receiving payments from Google later on.

306.41 -> Add your residential address or business address.

308.84 -> If it is a business account,

310.45 -> this has to follow the address you have with your bank for verification

314.09 -> later on. Following that, you can add your phone number and hit submit.

318.84 -> Google needs to verify that you are

320.66 -> a person and not a bot, so a phone verification is justified.

326.25 -> Once done, this step is completed.

329.45 -> Now you have fully created an AdSense account.

332.09 -> Congratulations!

333.33 -> But that's the easy part.

334.97 -> The tough part is to get your site approved by Google AdSense.

338.56 -> And before we submit our sites, let me share with you several pointers

341.97 -> that could potentially cause your site to be disapproved, especially for new sites.

348.32 -> Some of you may not pay attention

349.97 -> to the menu items of your site, and you may just have the "Home", "About us",

354.33 -> "Contact us", and the "Privacy Policy", which are the standard menu items.

358.17 -> But Google may view it as bad navigation because they would think how are your site

362.69 -> visitors going to access other parts of your website?

365.77 -> So here's what I did for the BBQ site.

368.29 -> At the header menu we have "Home", "Blog", which is the blogroll that connects your

373.3 -> site visitors to all the other articles on your site.

375.92 -> We have a HTML sitemap that connects site

378.48 -> visitors to all the other pages of the site.

380.85 -> This is easily achieved by toggling this

383.04 -> HTML sitemap option on the Sitemap settings and either add this shortcode

387.98 -> to a page or selecting a page to be the HTML sitemap.

391.88 -> Feel free to check out the video that is popping up at the top right.

394.92 -> And then we have the "Grill University"

396.92 -> with a drop down menu that includes the "Grill Maintenance".

399.65 -> It has four articles in the category.

401.8 -> In the future, we can add categories like

404.04 -> grilling fish, grilling chicken, food science, etc.,

407.33 -> to the Grill University as submenu items.

410.17 -> And then the other menu item is Buying Guides, which is a category on its own.

414.97 -> And this has six articles.

417.53 -> But what about the Cookie Policy, privacy

419.85 -> Policy, about us, and all the important pages?

422.73 -> I'm pretty sure you saw it on the Footer menu earlier.

425.41 -> As you can see though, this site is relatively new.

428.6 -> To be honest, it only has ten published articles.

431.57 -> But on the homepage itself it looks like an established site.

435.33 -> And site visitors can easily navigate to every page of the website.

439.77 -> Make sure that every page of your site has a menu and footer so that your site

443.98 -> visitors can visit every page of your website if they want to.

447.17 -> So, if your site is hit with this site

449.41 -> behavior navigation issue, you know what to do.

452.48 -> Obviously you also want to make sure that you adhere to all these pointers as well.

456.57 -> Do not make false claim to elicit a click.

458.92 -> For example, you have placed a download button, but it sends your site visitors

462.69 -> to a payment form. Link to content that does not exist,

465.64 -> for example,

466.21 -> you're adding a link to a page you are going to publish, but you haven't done so.

470.29 -> Redirect users to irrelevant on misleading pages.

473.04 -> For example, the anchor text of a link says, read my review on this barbecue

477.21 -> grill, but it sends people to Amazon instead.

479.65 -> And finally, texts on page unrelated to topic or business model will be

484.45 -> discussed when we talk about site structure in a while.

489.08 -> What are important pages?

491.09 -> As I've mentioned earlier, your Privacy policy, your Disclaimers, About us,

495.85 -> Contact us,

496.69 -> Terms of Service, all these pages don't seem important to you or your site

500.6 -> visitors because how many site visitors actually

503.01 -> visit those pages, right?

504.6 -> But from Google's perspective,

506.69 -> those are important pages, especially the Privacy Policy

509.69 -> and disclaimers. If you don't know what content to add to those pages,

513.69 -> there are many free important page generators on the Internet,

517.05 -> but if you find them too salesy, you can either hire a lawyer or visit your

520.99 -> competitors site to get inspiration from them.

523.73 -> Alternatively, WordPress do have a default privacy

527.05 -> policy generator, which you can find under

529.29 -> "Settings" and "Privacy", if you wish to use the default privacy policy from WordPress.

534.2 -> Normally, a draft would have been created and you should see it under "Pages",

537.93 -> but if you don't see that, just click on "Create" and here's the generated page.

542.49 -> You need to publish this page for it to be live.

545.05 -> But personally, I do not use the default privacy policy page.

549.08 -> I use a custom one.

550.56 -> But make sure that whatever privacy policy

552.65 -> page you wish to use is declared on the privacy settings here.

558.52 -> Now, earlier I walked you through two categories.

561.2 -> Have you noticed that I do not have many categories?

563.92 -> I could have added grilling fish,

565.56 -> grilling chicken, and other categories on the menu.

567.85 -> But why haven't I done so?

569.49 -> That's because empty or thin category

571.77 -> pages in your menu may give the impression that your site is still under

576.29 -> construction, and Google may not approve it.

578.89 -> I get it.

579.8 -> People who came through your site probably came through a Google search,

583.08 -> and they may not visit the homepage or other pages of your site.

586.41 -> But when Google reviews your sites, the entire site will be assessed.

591.13 -> So I would say for every category, you should have at least three to four

595.16 -> articles on it before you put it on the menu to avoid thin content,

598.48 -> which is a very common reason they disapprove your site.

601.17 -> Also, as you're building out your sites, you should tackle one category at a time,

605.77 -> build up topical relevance for each category before moving on to the next.

609.53 -> Maybe seven to ten articles for each category before starting a new.

615.16 -> And since we are talking about thin

616.97 -> category pages, we're going to talk about thin content.

620.08 -> Thin contents are essentially pages that offer little to no value and is often

624.73 -> associated with pages with less than 600 words.

627.69 -> I know word count doesn't matter, but for certain topics

630.89 -> like "Best Gas grills below $300", where images do not provide much value,

635.61 -> it is almost impossible to provide value to readers with below 1000 words.

641.05 -> You see the article I've written

642.77 -> on the same topic requires about two and a half thousand words to make a point.

647.05 -> We talked about what we look out for in a Good Gas grill,

650.85 -> and we discussed in detail why we recommend each of these gas grills.

655.13 -> I know the basic SEO check in Rank Math

657.77 -> recommends articles to be above 600 words, but it is almost impossible to provide

662.45 -> value if the article is below 1000 words, in my opinion.

665.89 -> And that's why I like to use Content AI

668.25 -> to provide me with a word count range so that I know if a topic is something

672.57 -> that requires a long form article to provide value.

675.53 -> And by the way, once you have used Content AI to analyze

679.03 -> the topic, the Basic SEO Check will follow the same data from Content AI.

684.77 -> You see, if I remove part of the article,

687.73 -> it will suggest that I have at least a number that is displayed on Content AI.

692.89 -> But make sure that the focus keyword in the Content AI is the same letter

697.01 -> casing as the one in the SEO Checklist for it to work.

700.93 -> So my recommendation when creating content is not to be stingy with words,

704.89 -> but at the same time, those extra words should not be fluff.

708.44 -> They should be providing value to your

710.08 -> readers in the fastest and the most efficient way.

713.04 -> Don't worry, I'll be talking about

714.65 -> creating content that Google will see as quality in a while.

719.69 -> One thing Google hates the most is duplicate content.

723.29 -> We are not only talking about plagiarizing content from other websites,

726.85 -> we are talking about duplicate content on your site.

730.05 -> There are two types of duplicate content.

732.33 -> One is from the content level and the other is from the category level.

736.17 -> Let's talk about the content level first.

738.57 -> If you use a big portion of one article

741.05 -> and you place it on another, it is considered duplicate content.

745.57 -> For example, you have an article about

747.57 -> the five best charcoal grills, and then you have another article

750.92 -> that talks about gas grills versus charcoal grills.

753.4 -> And it will make sense

754.29 -> that in that article you place some of the top charcoal grills in it.

757.97 -> So you copy a large chunk of the content

760.41 -> from the other article over to this, and this is considered duplicate content.

766.73 -> Then what about a content like affiliate

768.96 -> disclaimers that should appear on almost every page of your website?

772.13 -> Sometimes disclaimers can be excessive

774.85 -> and could take up a big chunk of your article.

777.65 -> What we recommend is to add a line like "As

780.13 -> an Amazon associate, your site earns from qualifying purchases,

784.17 -> see our affiliate disclaimer" and you place a link to the disclaimer page.

789.08 -> The other type of duplicate content is from the category level.

793.37 -> Do you have articles that have multiple categories?

796.61 -> Try not to do that, especially when your site is new.

799.89 -> You see, whenever you write an article, you have the option to select a category.

804.41 -> But as you select multiple categories.

806.49 -> As a Rank Math user, you have the option to select which is the primary category.

811.13 -> But just imagine, in this BBQ recipe category, we do not have any content yet.

817.45 -> So if you select that category, that category page will only have one article.

823.45 -> When you have one article in the category

825.89 -> and the same article appears on another category page that has four articles,

830.25 -> Google will view it as between these two pages, one quarter or 25% of this page is

835.53 -> duplicated content and 100% of this category page is duplicated.

840.61 -> It is highly likely that Google would disapprove your site for that reason.

844.93 -> The key to getting approved by Google is

847.73 -> not to give it any reason to fault your site.

852.37 -> Now this goes hand in hand with the thin content and category pages.

856.33 -> If you don't have enough articles on your

858.57 -> website, your site will often be flagged by this low value content issue.

863.45 -> AdSense does not explicitly say you do not

866.01 -> have enough content, but this is based on personal experience.

869.69 -> So my recommendation to navigate everything I've just said is to have

873.61 -> at least ten to 15 articles spread out evenly in two to three categories.

877.93 -> And every piece of article should have at least 1000 words and above.

882.13 -> But don't take 1000 words as a guide.

884.61 -> Your article should answer every aspect of a given topic and to the best of your

888.85 -> knowledge and experience, plus the research.

891.05 -> Whatever the top ranking articles have

893 -> talked about, you want to talk about them as well.

895.33 -> But you want to provide more than what they offer.

897.96 -> That's how your articles will rank above

899.97 -> them, and that's how Google AdSense will approve your site.

905.56 -> Now, assuming your site is relatively new

907.81 -> and has fewer than 50 articles, for each of the articles,

910.8 -> you are tackling topics that don't make sense to each other.

913.24 -> For example, you have two articles that talks about sports,

916.17 -> one article that talks about relationship, and three articles that talks about law.

920.45 -> And they are all not related to each other.

922.89 -> Do you think Google will understand what your site is about?

926.89 -> Absolutely not.

928.04 -> Google needs to understand what your site is about before it will be approved.

931.77 -> And that's why having a good site structure is important.

935.85 -> If you check out our BBQ site, we made it known that there are three

939.57 -> types of BBQ Grills and there is a category called BBQ Buying Guides

944.05 -> and another category called BBQ Grill Maintenance.

947.45 -> And on the menu items it is reflecting the same.

950.93 -> Every piece of article on the site talks about BBQ.

954.33 -> So will Google understand what the site is about?

957.41 -> Pretty sure you know it is a BBQ site,

959.77 -> even though the domain name doesn't say so.

961.93 -> But Google will understand the same.

965.41 -> So it is all about planning your site before you start writing.

968.89 -> If you want to know how to create a good

970.97 -> site structure from the start, check out this video right here in that video.

975.29 -> We have given an example of a good BBQ

977.69 -> site structure which we have used to develop the BBQ site we have and what

982.13 -> we have taught can be applied to any niches or industry.

987.6 -> Allow me to walk you through the process of writing a good quality content.

992.37 -> Firstly, quality content comes with sharing personal knowledge and insights.

996.21 -> And if you are a beginner or you know nothing much about your niche or industry,

1000.21 -> it is hard to write a good quality content.

1003.17 -> And with that said, assuming that you have

1005.53 -> the knowledge and experience, here's the process I will follow.

1009.13 -> Say you are writing on the topic.

1010.84 -> What happens if you don't clean your grill?

1012.97 -> To write unique and good quality content,

1015.49 -> I will first list and write everything I can think of based on my knowledge

1019.97 -> and experience before I start doing any research.

1023.69 -> That way you can provide something unique.

1027.04 -> Then what happens next is I will utilize Content AI to tell me what I need

1031.41 -> to include in the article in case I've missed something.

1035.12 -> As you can see, it is telling me to write about 1000 to 1600 words.

1039.93 -> I should have about five internal and two external links.

1043.56 -> I should have about three H2 and one H3 heading tags.

1047.21 -> I should have four images and one video.

1049.73 -> And these are the keywords.

1051.65 -> Take note that these data are analyzed

1053.84 -> and recommended based on the articles that are ranking for the same topic.

1057.73 -> And remember, these are recommendations and guidelines.

1061.53 -> It doesn't mean it recommends 1600 words you have to follow exactly.

1066.32 -> And to be honest, three H2 heading tags is just too little.

1071.32 -> I have many reasons why people should

1073.69 -> clean their grills, and each one of them should be a H2

1077.21 -> by itself, I'll definitely not end at three.

1080.41 -> So, based on this data the Content AI has provided, what is it saying?

1084.53 -> Other than the basic information other

1086.89 -> articles have covered, this question "is a dirty grill dangerous?"

1090.56 -> "How long should you let a grill burn off?"

1093.08 -> "Do you need to clean a BBQ after every use?"

1096.21 -> "Does dirty grills cause food poisoning?"

1098.84 -> And in the headings recommendation, it is saying I should include a section

1102.79 -> to mention why my readers should employ a professional to clean the grill grates.

1107.17 -> And at the end of the article, I should have these questions in the FAQ

1111.49 -> section. What about external links I should add to the article?

1117.12 -> Let's click on links.

1118.64 -> It is recommending that poorly maintained

1120.69 -> grills can cause cancer as a result of this compound called Carcinogens.

1125.6 -> Technically, I should check out all these links here to get a good idea

1129.17 -> what more I should add to the content. As you know,

1132.17 -> linking your article to external sources that are credible is a good SEO practice

1137.32 -> and that's why we have these recommendations here.

1140.28 -> You see, from all this information, I can really get a good idea of what

1144.53 -> Google is looking for in a quality content. And from here, I want

1148.39 -> to provide the best content out there.

1150.84 -> So I will go to Google and search for that key phrase.

1154.53 -> I'll go through the articles and jot down

1157.25 -> all the pointers that I've missed, but I will write those pointers based

1161.65 -> on my knowledge without referencing other people's content.

1165.49 -> Using this method of writing content,

1167.69 -> not only am I basing the article on my knowledge and experience,

1170.97 -> I am leveraging the power of AI to get good insights and I'll be talking about

1175.41 -> every pointer of those articles that are ranking at the top.

1178.49 -> That's how you create the best content.

1181.53 -> Anyway, if you are getting value

1183.45 -> from this, can you do us a favor and smash that thumbs up button?

1189.28 -> Now, this is based on my personal experience.

1191.69 -> If your site is ever flagged with sexually explicit or abusive content,

1195.49 -> but your website is totally not sexual in nature, it means that there are some

1199.97 -> words that you have used on some of your articles that may imply sensual context.

1204.01 -> Maybe an image on one of your articles is showing too much skin.

1208.04 -> I would recommend that you visit this

1209.8 -> page, the link in the description, and scroll through the entire list and try

1214.41 -> to remember if you have used one of these words here.

1217.21 -> If there is, but you forgot which article

1219.77 -> you have used it on, go to your post list and search for that word.

1224.25 -> Most likely the article that contains that word will appear.

1228.21 -> Visit the page, remove or change that word

1230.93 -> to a different tone and that should fix it.

1233.2 -> Make sure that you visit your media

1234.65 -> library as well to see if there are any images that are showing too much skin.

1239.49 -> If there is, let's say for example this. As

1242.47 -> you click on the image, you want to click on this "view attachment

1245.8 -> page" and it will lead you to the page where you have used this image.

1249.97 -> This is the result from one of Rank Math's settings.

1252.65 -> Under "General Settings" and "Links" you will see this redirect attachment setting.

1257.36 -> If you haven't turned this option on,

1259.45 -> the link you have just clicked on will lead you to a page with the image only.

1263.56 -> So turn this setting on if you haven't done so, it is a good SEO practice.

1267.69 -> By the way, change whatever you need

1269.63 -> to change and your site should be good to go.

1274.16 -> You may also want to check if the domain

1276.01 -> that you have right now has a history of spamming.

1278.89 -> Yes, you may own this site right now, but maybe a couple of years ago that site

1283.21 -> was used to cause some indecent act and was blacklisted by Google.

1287.21 -> The simplest way to check this is to use

1289.36 -> a tool like "web.archive.org" as it will tell you how your site used to look

1294.53 -> and you may see some telltale signs of misuse.

1297.69 -> You can also use a tool like.

1299.19 -> Google's Transparency Report to confirm if

1301.91 -> the domain has some form of penalty in the past.

1304.8 -> As you can see, the site we have is relatively new, so we are safe.

1310.12 -> So that's basically everything you should

1312.24 -> look out for to get your site approved by Google AdSense.

1314.8 -> And if you think your site is ready to be

1316.51 -> reviewed, let's now connect it to Google AdSense and request for a review.

1323.28 -> All right, once you think your site is

1325.53 -> ready for approval, the next step is to connect it to AdSense.

1329.49 -> Click on let's go.

1330.77 -> Add your website's URL and hit save.

1333.77 -> As soon as you've done that, go to Sites.

1336.93 -> You will see your site here.

1338.65 -> Expand this and click on request review.

1341.77 -> There is one more step, head back to "Home"

1344.6 -> and then connect your site to AdSense and it will present you with a unique

1349.08 -> AdSense code to be added to your site's tags.

1352.53 -> There are many ways to do this.

1354.57 -> Some themes allow you to add codes

1356.51 -> to the head section of your site in the theme Customizer.

1360.17 -> For some you can visit the theme File Editor.

1363.05 -> Go to the header.php where you can place

1366.08 -> the AdSense code between the tag of your site.

1369.93 -> But for the sake of simplicity, I will be using a plugin. On your

1374.35 -> wordPress dashboard hover to plugins and "add new", search for "insert headers

1379.84 -> and footers" and you want to install and activate this plugin by Wpcode.

1385.49 -> Once installed, you will see a new menu item called "Code Snippets".

1389.84 -> Select header and footer.

1391.49 -> And now you can paste your AdSense code here.

1394.29 -> As it says, these scripts will be printed in the section of your website.

1398.53 -> So I'll go back to AdSense,

1400.65 -> copy the AdSense code, head back to the website and paste it here and "save

1406.45 -> changes" and you are basically done.

1409.77 -> Now all that's left is for Google AdSense to make a decision.

1413.32 -> It will usually take a couple of days, up to two weeks.

1416.17 -> Sometime later... The moment of truth.

1420.08 -> Google AdSense came back to me with...

1424.81 -> Dang, I've actually expected this.

1426.29 -> I had most success with 20 to 30 articles from my other sites.

1429.69 -> So who was I kidding?

1430.88 -> I was just trying my luck for this video.

1432.84 -> But honestly, if I put the same amount

1434.81 -> of effort from the past couple of days to continue writing more BBQ contents

1438.81 -> that will help the community, I can almost guarantee that the site will be approved.

1443.77 -> It is just a matter of time.

1445.77 -> If ten articles is not enough, make it 20 and submit for approval.

1449.97 -> If 20 is not enough, make it 30.

1452.45 -> As the content of your site grows,

1454.41 -> there is no reason for Google AdSense to reject you.

1457.57 -> So if your site is not approved like mine, don't be disheartened.

1461.01 -> Keep moving forward and your site will eventually be approved.

1464.2 -> And once you get approved, you can start displaying ads on your site.

1467.45 -> And when you have earned over $10,

1469.45 -> Google will mail a pin that looks like this to the address you have provided,

1473.41 -> then log into AdSense account, verify that Pin, and once your account

1477.29 -> reaches $100, you will start receiving those paychecks.

1481.05 -> With all these pointers, we hope that your site will be approved in no time.

1485.17 -> And even if your site is not approved, you now know what to do.

1488.64 -> If you find this video helpful,

1490 -> can you do us a little favor and smash that thumbs up button?

1492.8 -> If you haven't done so.
