I know many of you want to make some good money with adsense right? 
But it’s not easy to get into adsense program now a days. You have to do few things before applying for adsense.
Google Adsense is world’s larges Ads Network and works at Pay Per Click system. It’s paying rates are better than all of other networks which is the biggest reason it is sopopular to all Bloggers and Webmasters. But since everybody is running behind them, they have made the approval system very strict. You make little mistakes and get disapproved every time. So you need a complete guidance and list of thing that you need to do before applying for Google Adsense and supposing that you are ready.

12 Things to Do Before Applying for Google Adsense
1. Privacy Policy :
One of the common mistakes that every Blogger makes and that I made many times before finally getting approved. Even though there are people out there who say that having a Privacy Policy for a Blog doesn’t makes sense but they are wrong.
A Privacy actually describes to your readers about what they will get on your Blog , what they should do and what they should not. So obviously there is nothing bad in having a Privacy Policy. While it can affect somehow on your Adsense Approval, you must give it a try. You can write it yourself or find Privacy Policy Generators online (You don’t need a lawyer anyway).
2. About Page
An About has major role and importance if you don’t want to apply for Adsense. But when it comes to Adsense, they are about Zero chances of getting approved if you are not showing this page.About page simply describes about you and your Blog . This will not only help you establish a relationship with readers but it will also make them trust upon you.
3. Contact Us Page
It’s quite obvious that everyone has his/her own opinion. What one of your readers likes may be bothering someone else. Than it is better to give them opportunity to speak up to you and tell how they feel about your Blog, what they want to be edited , what they liked or hated.
It will also show the Google Adsense Team that is viewing your site that you actually care about your readers and not only the money and Adsense.
4. Name/ Email Verification
Make sure to put you Name and Email address in some easily visible area like About Me and Contact Us pages. It will confirm to Google Adsense Team that it is the same person who applied for Adsense and not some spam, crappy bots.
5. Age Verification
I’m really laughing out typing this. 
Why?
Because this is where I encountered a problem. Instead of 18, I accidentally published my age as 17 while on Adsense Application Form, it was accurately 18.
Hence there started a problem . Because Google Adsense is not for under 18 people. I realized this problem after being disproved a few times without any legitimate reason. So I advice you to be accurate while typing your age.
6. Minimum Number of Posts
There is no exact answer. Not even one. Because I have seen very established Blogs with 400+ posts and their owner telling me that Google Adsense is rejecting them while somewhere ,people with 40,50 posts are enjoying making money. Exactly what I said that there is no actual answer. However, we can always predict things. According to my experience , you should only apply after you have more than 70 posts. Posts length should must be 500+ words too.
7. Design
Your Blog is the biggest thing after Content. This represents your expertise ,experience and Professionalism. So be careful because anything can kill your Chances.
8. Content Type
Be careful with what type of content you are publishing. Because it is something that truly matters. Google Adsense is not for Pornographic, Illegal Items, Drugs or other Blogs / Sites like that. Also Adsense team won’t be willing to allow you to step in if you own a Non English Blog. Having posts shorter than 300 words in length is also Red Signal.
9. Providing Value
Don’t complain about not making money and don’t clearly state that your are Blogging for Money only and have no other interest in it. Because this will show them that you will not be providing values to your readers any day. Hence another Red Light glows up.
10. Top Level Domain
Those are gone far away when Adsense used to approve “Blogspot” and “WordPress.com” Blogs. As for today, you must have your own unique domain that specifies your Blog. If you don’t have one yet, stop dreaming about getting approved with Sub domains and go buy a Top Level Domain.
Another important thing about domain is it’s age. Because for most of Asian Countries, Adsense has placed an age restriction. They don’t accept any sites before they are 6 months old.
11. Other Ad Networks
If you have any other Ads placed like Chitika, Clicksor or anything, it’s time to drop them off.
Even Google Adsense allows you to use other Ad Networks along with them, it’s better to remove the ads before Applying and don’t put them back until you get a reply from Adsense Team.
12. Paid Traffic
Google hates the sites that are getting Paid traffic and mostly penalizes them so there is not a damn chance of getting Adsense Approval letter for a site that is getting paid traffic. You can bring traffic from Search Engines or any other way you want but if you want to earn via Google Adsense the right way, paid traffic is not a solution.
Over To You!
This will take your few time and you have to Do these things Before Applying for Google Adsense. I guess these are not too hard. Don’t be sad if google adsense not approve your blog!
There are many other ways to make money online without adsense.
Monetizing Your Blog Can Make YOU A Mega-Star!
You’ve taken the leap into “blogdom”…Hoooraay! Keep in mind the phrase spoken by Bette Davis’ character, Margo Channing, in All About Eve — “Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be a bumpy night!”Please don’t misunderstand. My intention is not to dissuade you from your goal to monetize your blog. In fact, my desire is quite the opposite. I’m delighted to be able to share 3 tips that can make your ride a little less bumpy!
1ne: Pen Your Passion
Don’t waste time blogging about topics that only vaguely interest you. Pen (blog) about your passion! Emotions are powerful motivators and passion transmits equally as intensely through words on a page as it does through actions, tone of voice or facial expressions. Your excitement creates a contagious enthusiasm with your audience and maximizes the likelihood of building a loyal following.
Building an engaging site that entices substantial and consistent traffic is the first crucial step in monetizing your blog. The phrase — “If you build it, they will come” — made famous by Kevin Costner’s character, Ray Kinsella, in the movie Field of Dreams does not hold true in the game of monetizing your blog! You must publish a professional blog, consistently convey valuable content, doggedly cultivate authentic connections and be desirous of giving more than you get!
2wo: Consider Including “Pay Per Click” Ads
You’ve created your niche by penning your passion and cultivated an extraordinarily large following of “fans.” Bravo! Now, it’s time to get your groove back, financially speaking, by using “pay per click” ads through Google and Yahoo.
Although these are fantastic money-makers, you shouldn’t lounge on a beach sipping a tasty beverage! Monetizing your blog using pay per click ads requires diligent follow-through. Keep a keen eye on the stats (type of ads appearing, pricing & click-through rates) and promptly make necessary adjustments.
Perhaps the ads aren’t targeted closely enough to your niche and click-through rates are suffering…be ready to make adjustments to align ads with the interests of your target audience. Click-through rates will improve when ads match the audience. Attentiveness to detail is crucial in finding your groove when monetizing your blog!
3hree: Affiliate Marketing Is A Top Gun Tool
Unlike the quote spoken by Maverick, Tom Cruise’s character in the movie Top Gun — “You don’t have time to think up there. If you think, you’re dead” – implementing affiliate marketing to monetize your blog does require thought!
You must identify products/services pertinent to your niche in order to fully realize the star quality affiliate marketing offers. Consider items associated with branding or products/services that compliment who you are as well as your vision.
When your audience clicks the affiliate links and makes a purchase, you earn a commission on the sale! Choose affiliates wisely! You don’t want to ruin your impeccable reputation by aligning your blog with a less than stellar company.
Be the star of the show! Following the script and incorporating these tips will surely make your blog a blockbuster!
