New Adsense approval process

[webdeveloper]

As you probably know - recently Google updated their approval process for new publishers: first they make a partial review of website and if its ok then allow putting of 'dummy' ads to the site; and then in 4 business days they make final review of the site and make final decision.

I passed first part of approval today: my 3-days-old wordpress site with 5 pages of unique content was approved in less than 2 hours. And I was really surprised as AFAIK publishers from Ukraine usually have to wait for approvance/disapprovance for several days. Now I have to put ads and wait until Google's final decision. Can you guys please give some advices regarding what should I do and what I shouln`t do in order to sucessfully pass the second part of approval process

Thanks in advance!

4 business days? Where'd you get that number? I have been waiting over 3 weeks and my review is still pending.

Just wait for now.

Anything to keep the boneheads from mucking up adsense
for everybody else suits me just fine. Especially the bonehead-
prone countries, that will in this post, remain nameless.

If you and your site are on the up-and-up, there are no other tips.

If you missed the official blog, here it is:

Note, there is nothing about 4 business days...

Soon after the ad code has been added to the submitted site, a final approval decision will be made and the applicant will be notified by email

Really? Mine doesn't mention that. They are taking their sweeeeeeeeet time on mine. Im going through blogger though since in the past that was usually the fastest way so maybe now its not the best way to do it. Oh well, hopefully i'll get it approved soon.

Agree, writing names of all 257 countries is a waste of time

New application process took effect on Aug 31, maybe that's why your email didn't mention that. Mine has the following:

We have completed a partial review of your application, and you may begin placing AdSense code on your site. In order to help you begin using Google AdSense as fast as possible, we will conduct a further review after you’ve placed the AdSense code on your site. We will notify you of full approval or disapproval within four (4) business days.

So... my Adsense account has been fully approved yesterday
