Getting AdSense approval can feel like a mystery. Here’s what actually works for new blogs—no guesswork.

1. Publish 10-15 Quality Posts First

AdSense wants to see real content. Aim for at least 10–15 posts before applying. Each one should be 500+ words with genuine value. They’re looking for substance.

2. Add Required Pages

  • About — Who you are, what your site covers
  • Privacy Policy — Required. Mention cookies and data
  • Contact — Email or contact form

3. Enable HTTPS

Your site has to use HTTPS. GitHub Pages offers free SSL—just enable “Enforce HTTPS” in your Pages settings.

4. Original Content Only

No copied content. AI-generated posts are fine if they’re unique and valuable. Add your own insights and edits. Make it yours.

5. Consistent Publishing

Show you’re active. Publish regularly—our automated workflow helps with daily posts. Consistency matters.

6. Avoid Policy Violations

  • No adult content, violence, or prohibited stuff
  • No “get rich quick” promises
  • No copyright violations

7. Wait and Reapply

First application rejected? Improve your site, add more content, reapply in 1–2 weeks. It’s not the end of the world.
