Here’s how you can get started

Let's get you started on the road to earning with AdSense! But before you can start raking in the cash, you need to get your website approved. 

• Make sure you include an ‘About’ page, ‘Contact’ page, and a ‘Privacy’ page on your site.
• Include as much original content as possible; websites that post duplicate content will not be considered.
• Make sure you have full ownership of the website you’re submitting, or permission from the owner.
• Ensure that your site adheres to the AdSense program policies.
