How this nurse got here...
I joined WA in 2014, shortly after I lost my mom. Rest Her Soul In Peace.
I think I found WA through Empowered Network. It was a tough time for me, so I do not exactly remember. I found inspiration from WA, Vickie Milazzo and The Nerdy Nurse to keep my chin up.

I am a newby in the regard that I just rejoined the team the end of last year. New web site, too:)
I enjoyed your blog post, thank you!
Nurse Becca

You know, I have no idea who my sponsor is. I responded to something online, and here I am.

Hi Karina, I decided to check out WA due to an e-mail I got. Glad I joined them.

Not a newbie, but found it thropugh IBO Toolbox

I remembered joining Legendary Marketer one week and was not getting a good vibe from their trainer/recruiter/salesman. It felt more like a scam not a business focused on my development process. That being said, i decided to do some more research on line and on You Tube and came across a WA promo and the rest is history and I quit Legendary immediately, with no regrets.

I found wealthy affiliate awhile ago through a google search. I had found both legendary marketer and wealthy affiliate. Then I was looking for reviews on google to make a decision. Then I saw a lengthy review about legendary marketer by Jerry Huang and then I remembered I had started an account with wealthy affiliate. Basically, I watched his video and then went to wealthy affiliate.

I was doing general Google research about something new I learned called affiliate sales. I was intrigued but most of what I was finding was piece meal info and no real training on the subject unless I wanted to buy into a program or ebook. I came across WA initially thinking it was 'too good to be true' and did further research to see if they were really legit, and was pleasantly surprised to find they were! I did all the free training only to get hooked and here I am, a little over a year later, still learning something new everyday. I'd probably still be banging my head on my desk trying to figure out the in's & out's of affiliating if it weren't for WA!

Hmm.. Not sure.

Hi Karina,
I remember reading a review about something on a christian blog when an advert popped up that says, "Do you want to make money online through Amazon?" or something on that line. I clicked and it lead me to WA and I never looked back.

Hi Karina,

I was searching on google, not sure about the exact term, - something in this manner:
"How to create simple website"

I ended up at Nathaniel`s site "one more cup of coffee"

I was transferred from his site to WA site for sign up.
I did not want to.

Then month later, I said to myself, that I give it a try. So I signed up for month. Then Black Friday came by, and I paid for yearly membership.
Here I am more than an year later :)

Have a good one
Mike

I've also been waiting for 2 weeks now

"We’ve found some policy violations on your site which means that your site isn’t ready to show ads yet." I received that from adsense. How will I know what they mean? It is not like they specify.

Well everyone, I was advised yesterday that I wasn’t accepted for Adsense 🤔. When querying the reasons why (as I believe I tick all the boxes required) on their customer forum, I got this response:
“Adsense tends to stay away from "making money online" type sites so even though you may meet their basic requirements it's highly unlikely that you will ever get that type of site approved. The vast majority of applications are rejected so it's not just that type of site that is routinely rejected & the bar to get acceptance ion any subject s now rather high & much higher than the guidelines indicate.”

Ah well, upwards and onwards!

It took me a couple of days (about 3) but I decided not to use them on any of my websites because I didn't like how AdSense stole possible affiliate referrals which paid me far more. Plus didn't like how it made my sites look like they were created for advertisement space.

It used to take only 3-4 days for Google to get back to you with a decision to either approve or reject your applications. Occasionally, if it's been going to weeks or months that you've submitted but didn't hear from them, then make sure you reach Google about this.

If memory serves, mine came pretty quickly.

It was approximately three weeks before I received a response, and was rejected. You are unlikely to be accepted unless you have at least 50 articles and your website has been established for six months. In the end, I am happy with their decision; my site is far too pretty to be cluttered up with random advertisements!

i was told Google do not approve the Google Adsense easily nowadays, i have been waiting for mine to be approve for more than a month already

I have the same issue. It's been a couple of weeks and nothing.

I have an approved account already for one website. I have decided to add another website for AdSense before Christmas and got rejected a few times as I had added the code wrongly.

Now, the thing is I am facing the same situation as you are. I suspect that something is wrong on their side. I have also submitted the feedback, but haven't heard anything.

Let me know if you have any updates.

On Pages where i have more than 3 or 4 links, I have been ticking the nofollow box, when I am doing the final edit before publishing .
So when the google robot or bing or whoever reads it, the robot just reads the content without checking the links and their content.

I am not sure if this has any effect but it might be worth thinking about.

QSR stands for "Quoted Search Results". The keyword here is "Quoted". Put the search term into quote marks and ask Google using an incognito window and your post appears on the first page. The problem here is that most people don't use quote marks when they're searching.

Just keep doing what you're doing and eventually, Google will recognize your efforts.
