Hi everyone

I need an adsense account. I never used it before did not get banned or anything like that, this is my first approach to adsense. So I spent the last two nights building a non commercial blog around one of my hobbies. It's not my intention to earn anything with this blog and I planed to cancel it after I got my adsense ID. I just build it because I thought google would be more friendly when it is a site from a private person referring to a hobby. Once I have my adsense ID I would like to use it for other projects.

So I build a little blog added handwritten 100% unique content including self-made photos and videos, applied for adsense and got rejected. I guess it's because the blog just got started so there is probably not enough content and visitors.
Any advice for a beginner on how to get an adsense account without months of content creation and traffic-building?

Thanks
Volc

    What has worked for me and my clients to 100% approval rate...

    Sign up for a Blogger blog.

    Write 4 or 5 really good articles on one subject. Something that is easy for you to write about.

    Publish one article each day for 5 days straight. Submit an application after day 4 with your blogger URL.

    Just make sure that there are no advertisements or any salesy pitch on your page.

    Good luck!

    Matt

      I never actually use the Adsense on the blogger blog. I just use it for the application process is all.

      Incorrect. They do not keep anything, once you have an Adsense account you simply use your pub id and all the revenue you earn from your Blogger blog is yours to keep.

      Please get your facts straight...

        its not incorrect... its a fact!

        I've been doing adsense since the first day it came out to the public!

        so get your facts right! I've already made a million with adsense during this time, so I know what im talking about!

        thx

        edit:

        the PUB-ID is NOT shared.

          Thanks everyone for the replies so far I really appreciate your help, I'm so glad I found this forum.
          Guess my fault was that I wanted an adsense account literally overnight. This obviously does not work, I just applied to soon. So I will keep on adding value unique content every day and then try it again in 7 days or so.
          By switching to blogger I would lose a lot of my work. I did a wordpress blog and presented a part of my content in combination with a specific plugin which is not available at blogger I think. So I would lose at least 5-6 hours. Hopefully google will accept my wordpress when it has a bit more content.

          Are visitors important to get approved or will quality content be sufficient? As I said I do not intend to drive tons of traffic to this site and make money with it just want to get into adsense.

    maybe you can try waiting about 1 month and re apply. In the meantime add more content to your site. This is how I got my adsense account.

    Hope you will get a helpful explanation- my experience is shown below.
    Note- I latter read that its perfectly acceptable to simply ask the”G” what changes you need to achieve compliance as this will trigger someone taking another look and perhaps that person can give you some positive input or maybe just approve what you already have. Reply in a positive manner, but seek out an explanation to better understand how to become compliant.

    You dont have to use your blogger blog for your platform! Dont switch anything to Blogger. You would only use it to get approved for AdSense! Does this make sense?

    Once you are approved, you can put adsense wherever you want. The blogger blog is just used as a way to get approved for adsense and that is all. Apply with it and you will be fine.

    I think that that if google detects that your blog is brand new or in development, they cannot accept your application, until your blog is done and active with a couple of postings. I don't think you have to wait for month as you put it, just do post some good content and they will accept it. I also think you should definitely monetize your blog
