Adsense approval gets tougher:

Here is something which may make you upset.Google has made their policies for adsense account approval tougher as comapared to what it was earlier.

What exactly has made it tougher?

1.Your site must be on a TLD (Top Level Domain): No more blogspots/wordpress blogs.Google wants you to buy a domain for your site.This might be a shock for those who have some cool blogspot/wordpress blogs .They won't be able to apply for adsense account with such sites.

2.The domain must be atleast 6 months old: Just having a domain name won't help as Google wants it to be active for last 6 months.

A lots of bloggers have complained about this policy change by Google.
1.One reason behind this might be to reduce the load on their approval system.
2.It is also being said that majority of the adsense account disabled are related with blogspot blogs.
Though the blogspot blogs won't be allowed for adsense account request, it is allowed to put adsense ads on them.That means if you already have adsense account or you got one for a site at TLD, you can still implement the adsense ads on your other sites (including blogspots/wordpress blogs) .

One thing which all must understand is that adsense account is not a right, but a privilage.One must take adsense as a business and hence should be prepared to spend a few bucks for it.
This strict step may increase the overall performance in terms of quality of ads, eCPM and number of advertisers.

Hi JIBI!
Google was allowing the blogger blogs when I had applied for it.But now they are turning down most of the requests from blogger blogs (there are a few exceptions though).I think you can get approved if the blog is more than 6 months old.
Good luck!
