Google AdSense activation issues – common AdSense activation issues and how to fix them

You have your good site and you now want to start earning some money with Google AdSense but AdSense failed to activate your site each time you tried. This may be due to some issues on your site.

Normally on this kind of situations AdSense usually send you personalized information describing your issues and how to fix them on your AdSense account notifications.

Unfortunately, fixing issues on AdSense will require AdSense to review your site and which will take time usually like few days to 2-4weeks and you can check the review status on your Google AdSense account dashboard on sites.

Now, you have been trying and nothing works better. You are even getting to be discouraged with Google AdSense activation issues and trying to decide whether to go for other alternatives. Or you are just trying Google AdSense for the first or few times.

Don’t worry. I will cover in this article the most common Google AdSense activation issues, the reason why AdSense failed to activate your site for beginners and advance readers.

Google AdSense activation issues and how to fix them.

AdSense can’t refuse to activate your account for no reason. It must be that there are some issues that hinder the activation. And if you could only identify and fix those issues your account will surely be activated.

Therefore, if AdSense failed to activate your site it my be due to some of the following reasons.

I have classified these issues either by your site or with the connection process.

Google AdSense activation issues with your site

1, your site is not published or running live on the web.

If your site is not published yet or is not running live on the web can not be activated.

Publishing your site or consider contacting your service providers for confirmation.

Make sure that your site is published and live on the web.

2, your site is password protected.

Did you have log-in password for your site? Consider removing it so that AdSense will be able to view and activate your site. You can password protect your site again after the activation process is completed.

3, no enough, good or unique contents.

Did your website have content at all? Are the contents enough or good to show adds?

Try adding and publishing more contents on your site. Publish good, relevant and unique contents.

Google AdSense activation issues with the connection process

1, you didn’t add your site to your AdSense account.

Have you added your site to AdSense? Follow this steps to add your site to AdSense

1 sign-in to your AdSense account

2 click add site in the home page

3 put your site’s URL and save

Follow these process to add all your sites.

If you use Google platforms like blogger, YouTube, etc. You may connect through your account.

How to connect blogger to Adsense:  go blogger dashboard >>earnings >>Adsense

2, you didn’t connect your site to AdSense.

Did you connect your site to AdSense? You should connect your site to AdSense after adding the site.

Follow these steps to connect your site with AdSense

3, you didn’t place the AdSense code rightly

Did you rightly place the AdSense code? Infact did you place the adsense code at all? The reason why AdSense failed to activate your site my be due to this problem. You didn’t put the code at the right place.

4, Your code is incomplete or missing

Check whether the code you have added is complete, missing or not and consider getting a new code.

Replace the existing code in your website HTML with the new code.

5, you are not abiding with AdSense policy.

Review the AdSense program policy to make sure your site complies with it. If so AdSense with never activate your site except you made the necessary changes.

6, try pasting the codes in a page that have good content and receive visits regularly.

7 Review time is taking more than is expected.

The review takes at least few days to 2-4 weeks. So it’s recommended you wait for at least these period after you have added and connected your site to AdSense.

During waiting don’t remove the AdSense code from your website that may make the review process to stop. If you put the code again it will start the review fresh, just be patient and wait for AdSense to do their job.

But if AdSense had reviewed your site and find some issues (which they will usually notify you in your AdSense account notifications) try fixing the issues specifically.

After fixing the issues request a new review in sites in your AdSense account.

Hi! You are welcome to this blog where I will show you how to customize URL on Blogger posts for SEO.

In Blogger, the options to customize your post URL is very limited in editor. That means you can’t customize your Blogger posts URL like the WordPress URL as I have mentioned it in my other post about Blogger and WordPress pros and cons

Fortunately, for now there are very good options to increase the search engine optimization for your posts that is only if are willing to customize blogger posts URL and take risk of editing your HTML codes.
This is by customizing the post keywords section of the URL. Secondly, by removing the date on blogger post URL. Thirdly, removing the blogspot from your main domain name.
Now if the post you want to customize keywords on URL is already published and it’s already doing well on the SERP. I recommend you leave it like that so you don’t hot it’s seo performance.
Or if you are already getting back links for the post don’t edit anything on the post because you will loose all the current back links for the post.
Now let us see how to customize URL on blogger posts to improve your blog’s SEO.

How to Customize URL on blogger posts for SEO

Preview the blog using the menu within the HTML page.

So if it is successful save the changes if it is not successful revert the changes to draft to not cause any issues on your HTML which will hot your blog too.
I recommend you backup your blog before going through this process.

Mega description: how to use mega description on your blog posts

What is a mega description

Mega description is a page description displayed under the page title in a search engine result page. It is the brief page summary that is highlighted under your page title in the search engine’s organic search results. See the example below

What is the importance of mega description

Mega descriptions are certainly informative, introductory and call to action (CTA). Two things can make someone click your page (title and mega description) from the different alternative pages. That means your mega descriptions can speak well when it comes to clicks.

Writing a good title accompanied by clickable mega description is necessary for getting clicks from search results. When your page is ranking well but not getting the desired clicks check your mega description.

Therefore mega description gives a brief summary for your intended audience, telling them what to expect from your page. When it attract their attention then they are likely to click your page but when it falls to do so you are loosing clicks already. Update your mega description.

How do I know if my mega description and page title are doing well?

This is what to do if you want to check the effectiveness of your title and mega description on the search engine organic search results.

Go to your Google search console dashboard and click on “performance” from the left menu.

In the performance page add your page to see it’s search engine organic search performance. Now in this performance report you should be able to know if your title and mega description is getting the right clicks.

By comparing the search “impressions” and the “clicks” plus the “click through rate”.

Your impressions tell how many times your page is listed on search results and your clicks tell how many times your page get clicks from those search results (impressions) and your click through rate (CTR) calculates how many times your page get clicks divided by how many times you get listed on SERPs [CTR=clicks divided by Impressions].

If your impressions are high and your clicks are low that means there is a problem with your mega description and title or any of the two.

  4. Page content. Your mega description must have a direct relation with your content. As I have once said, mega description are page summary, therefore it must give a brief summary of your page content so as to get the right clicks and audience for your page.
  5. Heading/title. This is how it is, your page tell what your page is all about and your mega description give more information for the page. So your mega description must tally with your title tag.
  6. Keywordsthese are the phrases or word you want to rank for in the organic search results.

1)

Page title:how to cook fried rice for beginners.

Rules to follow to create mega description for this page.

Posted on by TJMala

This article will show you how to specifically add nofollow on comments automatically on Blogger so that all comment’s links like author profile links and any other link on comments will have nofollow as soon as the comments are published without you adding the nofollow attribute for every individual comments link.



In my other post I have talk about the difference between dofollow and nofollow links and how to add one on links but I have not mention how to add it on comments much especially on Blogger blog. That is why I feel the need to tell my dear readers how to add nofollow on comments automatically on Blogger blogs.

Nevertheless, before I proceed I will briefly explain what are nofollow links.

Read also about

Dofollow and nofollow links

What are nofollow links

Nofollow links are links that have the nofollow attribute (rel=”nofollow”) which is use to prevent search engines like Google from following the links by telling the search engines that the particular URL should not be followed when crawling the page that contain the link.

For instance, when bots are crawling a particular page and during the crawling it finds a link 🔗 on the page the bot will as well try to follow that link and crawl the destination page. So the more pages that are linking to that page and the more qualitative those links are the more SEO benefits it gets.

So if you are not willing to let search 🔍 engine bots to crawl such pages you need to add nofollow on them. Such links might include sponsored links, affiliate links, comments, etc.

A normal dofollow links should look like this:

https://hehelpbloggers.blogspot.com

While nofollow links should look like this:

https://hehelpbloggers.blogspot.com/ rel=”nofollow”

Why do you need to add nofollow on comments

We all need to add nofollow on comments for the following reasons:

  1. Usually comments are made to receive feedbacks from readers but unfortunately some spammers use it to generate backlinks. Adding nofollow on comments will discourage spammers.
  2. Spammy comments distract search engines from the main keyword and their for lower your ranking.
  3. Spammy comments makes it harder for you to know who really love your post and therefore think many people love your post while it is not so.
  4. We also add nofollow on comments links to reduce panda effects which reduces our traffic.

How to Create a Cheap Website in Nigeria and Make Money

Posted on by TJMala

Nigeria with the highest population of over 200million in Africa, having a website to serve this huge population is essential for any business in Nigeria. This provides a online platform to showcase products and services, engage with customers, and ultimately generate revenue.

If you’re a small business owner looking to create a website on a budget, you’re in luck. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the steps on how to create a cheap website in Nigeria and the various ways you can monetize it to make money.

The Importance of a Website for Nigerian Businesses

Before we dive into the process of creating a website, let’s understand why having one is crucial for Nigerian businesses.

A website acts as a digital storefront, allowing potential customers to discover your products or services and learn more about your brand. Here are a few key reasons why a website is important:

Increased Visibility: With a website, your business becomes visible to a broader audience, including potential customers who may not have heard of your brand before.

Credibility: A well-designed website instills trust and credibility in your business. It showcases professionalism and gives customers confidence in your products or services.

24/7 Availability: Unlike a physical store, a website is accessible 24/7, allowing customers to browse and make purchases at their convenience.

Marketing Opportunities: A website provides a platform to showcase your products, share customer testimonials, and run promotional campaigns to attract new customers.

Now that we understand the importance of a website, let’s explore the steps how to create a cheap website in Nigeria and make money.

Step 1: Define Your Website’s Purpose and Goals

Before you start building your website, it’s crucial to define its purpose and goals. Consider what you want to achieve with your website.

Are you looking to sell products online, provide information, or generate leads?

Defining your website’s purpose will help you make informed decisions during the development process.

This is your first step in building any successful website. After you have decide your purpose then you will need to…

Step 2: Choose the Right Website Building Platform

When it comes to building a website on a budget, there are several options available. Let’s explore two popular choices:

Option 1: Website Builders

This is one of the popular options that comes to your mind when building a website.

Website builders are user-friendly platforms that allow you to create a website without any coding knowledge.

They provide pre-designed templates and drag-and-drop functionality, making it easy to customize your website. Some popular website builders include:

Wix
Blogger
Weebly
Squarespace

These platforms often offer free plans with limited features, as well as affordable paid plans with additional functionality. Choose a website builder that suits your needs and budget.

Apart from website builders, the second option is CMS.

Option 2: Content Management Systems (CMS)

Content Management Systems, such as WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal, offer more flexibility and customization options compared to website builders.

This is so far the most popular option for building a business or any special purpose website.

While CMS platforms require a bit more technical knowledge, they provide greater control over your website’s design and functionality.

WordPress, in particular, is a popular choice for its user-friendly interface and extensive plugin library.

Therefore, for the sake of this tutorials we are going to use WordPress CMS, as it is our recommended Web Application and has allmost everything you will need to build either a business, personal or a special purpose website.

After defining your purpose and choosing your website platform, which in this tutorial we are going to use WordPress as our CMS, the next thing to do is to…

Step 3: Register a Domain Name

A domain name is your website’s address on the internet (e.g., www.yourbusinessname.com).

Choose a domain name that reflects your brand and is easy for customers to remember.

You can register a domain name through a domain registrar such as Host4beta, Truehost Nigeria, Namecheap, or Whogohost. Prices for domain names vary depending on the extension (.com, .ng, etc.) and availability.

However, we recommend a .com domain extension as it is the most popular and easier to remember and it is also SEO friendly. Host4beta our recommended web hosting service in Nigeria have different domain extentions in cheaper rate without hidding charges. They are our top choice.

After selecting and purchasing a domain name it is now the time to…

Step 4: Select a Web Hosting Provider

Web hosting is a service that allows your website to be accessible on the internet.

It’s essential to choose a reliable web hosting provider that offers affordable plans suitable for your budget. Some popular web hosting providers in Nigeria include:

Host4beta
Truehost Nigeria
Whogohost
Qservers

Consider factors such as server uptime, customer support, and scalability when selecting a web hosting provider.

In this tutorial we are going to use Host4beta, as it is cheap while providing quality services at the same time. Host4beta provide scalability, speed servers, 24/7 customer support, and 99.9% uptime guarantee which is necessary for your website to be up and running at all times 24/7.

To buy a host with Host4beta, go to host4beta.com.ng and select your hosting package. They have all the packages that can meet up to your budget. From business starter plan to business advance plan, VPS packages and dedicated servers, etc.

Select the package you want add it to your card and click checkout. You will be directed to a page to select domain if you have existing domain or want to register new domain select your preferred method and proceed to checkout.

You will be required to complete your account information so that you can use it to login to your client area. Choose a strong password that is difficult to guess and that you can remember easily.

Next you will also need to select a payment method. After completing your account and making your payment, your hosting account will be activated for you.

Your hosting details will be emailed to your. Then you can go straight and login to your account with your email address and password. go to domains and select your registered domain.

Remember if you are using a different domain registrar to register you domain you will need to edit the name servers from your domain setting in your domain host client area, and use the Host4beta Name servers. After making this changes you should know that it may take between few hours to 48 hours for the name servers to propagate. So you will need to wait until it is done.

But if you register your domain with Host4beta you have saved yourself from those stress as your domain will be up and running immediately.

Select your domain in the client area and select CPanel to install WordPress.

From here we move to our next step.

Step 5: Install WordPress in your domain

Most of the web hosting offer one click WordPress installer through Cpanel. If you are not sure how to install WordPress search in your web host data base, forum, blog, or ask them directly through their customer support.

But if you are using Host4beta, here is how you can do it. In your client area go to domains and then to cpanel as I have mentioned earlier.

Select softaculous installer or WordPress installer and click it. Follow the on screen instruction and complete your WordPress Installation.

For beginners I recommend you select https as your prefix as Host4beta automatically install SSL for you. Also leave the domain root directory empty if you don’t know what it means and what you can do with it.

Use a custom user name and strong password as it is very sensitive for protecting access to your WordPress admin dashboard. Hackers will try to get this information to hack your site in many illegal ways. Avoid user names like admin, wordpressuser, yourname, or any popularname or dictionary words and also avoid passwords that only contain number or letter. Mix both numbers, letters (upper and lower case) and special characters.

Apart from the above you can edit anything else and then click install.

The second method is to use your web browser and type your domain name URL with /wp-admin at the front like https://yourdomainname.com/wp-admin. Replace the “yourdomainame.com” with your domain name.
