Google AdSense Activated!

Yes, that's right. I just got an email from Google congratulating me for reaching the approval level for ads to start running on my website (activating my AdSense account)! Yes, ads were running before for one of my websites, years before I joined WA. But for security reasons with Bluehost (hoping never to experience the same thing here again), the website data went to the bottomless hole.

I even got paid years back, a 70 Euro payout from ads. But that is history. I was having tens of thousands of impressions and a few hundreds of clicks for that website [johnshalomdotcom], which I have now moved to WA hosting, but I have to begin writing articles afresh.

As you might have read in my other posts, I have just moved to Kenya to run my WA business, since PayPal, the main payment option here doesn't support my country of origin, South Sudan. Someone might say, "It's better to first accumulate money before you move," and I think I know the reasons behind that argument.

However, I didn't come to Kenya for only one reason but several reasons including relationship issues that I have to fix or work at to get a solution. I have tried to fix my Kenyan bank account issue, but failed today again, simple because of a variation in my names in my documents. Small issue with big impacts, right? Yes. My surname "Abiel" is not in my Manifest document, a UNHCR document that I can use as a permit to help me live and do business here in Kenya.

Despite all these hiccups, Google just surprised me when they approved my website, maluthfoundation.com, and this is the reason why I came up with this article, just to celebrate this small win. However, I'll still have to fix my Kenyan account because that's what I'll use to receive payments, should I get traffic that will soon generate revenue.

Please celebrate with me, today!

Also, I am in the top 200 ranks at WA. Shall we celebrate that, too?

I love the community here. Hoping to be sharing my progress just to encourage others who are yet to attain those achievements here. You can. Just be persistent and use available tools to be efficient enough.

Blessings,
John

Awesome, nice work John! :)

Thanks, Kyle, for this system. Love it!

John

Congrats!

Welcome, Mark.

John

Congrats John.

I got rejected on both my sites so I’m leery about trying again.

My other two sites got rejected. Actually, all of the 3 were rejected, but as I continued creating content, one got approved somehow automatically.

Maybe the reason is content, I mean, low content? Sometimes it (Google) says 'violation of terms or something,' but that can just be an issue with low content or new website.

I think I can resubmit the other two sites later on, if they don't get approved automatically as [https://maluthfoundation.com] was. Let's keep trying.

I'll keep you updated...

John

Could be low content. I have 60 posts on one and 33 on the other. It’s not a big deal, I can wait on ads. I really need ranking so people can find my content.

True. Continue building the sites.

John

Mine is approved at 33 articles published, more than three hundred scheduled. Maybe you can wait or send/submit another review after a few days.

John

Congrats, John!

Keep up the good work :)

Hope you get the biz issues sorted.
