Do Not Ask "What Is Required For AdSense?"

Too many blog owners start a blog, then post in AdSense Help Forum: Blogger, YouTube, Partner sites, or maybe in Blogger Help Forum: Learn More About Blogger, a bit of naivete.
What is required, to be eligible for AdSense?
And someone who has to ask is probably wasting time asking.

You do not get a blog with AdSense ads, by asking
What is required, to be eligible for AdSense?
You get a blog with AdSense ads, by publishing a blog that AdSense will want to use.

A Newly qualified blog won't make lots of money.

Even with your blog qualified for AdSense, and the "Earnings" tab newly activated, you are not likely to make much money.

This is just the beginning - not the end.



The reference document AdSense Help: Eligibility to participate in AdSense describes minimum standards. At the minimum level, you will be just starting - and not making any money.

Any site that is published, based on the question.
What is required, to be eligible for AdSense?
Is not going to make any useful amount of money for AdSense, for the advertising company paying for the ads, or for you.

Advertising companies won't pay for blogs developed to minimum standards.

No advertising company manager is going to waste his reputation or time, paying for ads on a site, developed with that question in mind.

Don't waste time, in the forum - work on your blog. Be patient, publish lots more content, and do not waste time applying to AdSense directly.

Adding A Link To Your Blog Post

Occasionally, you see a very odd, cryptic complaint I just added a link in my blog, but the link vanished! No, it wasn't your imagination.

What's The URL Of My Blog?

We see the plea for help, periodically I need the URL of my blog, so I can give it to my friends. Help! Who's buried in Grant's Tomb, after all? No Chuck, be polite. OK, OK. The title of this blog is "The Real Blogger Status", and the title of this post is "What's The URL Of My Blog?".

Embedded Comments And Main Page View

The option to display comments, embedded below the post, was made a blog option relatively recently. This was a long requested feature - and many bloggers added it to their blogs, as soon as the option was presented to us. Some blog owners like this feature so much, that they request it to be visible when the blog is opened, in main page view. I would like all comments, and the comment form, to be shown underneath the relevant post, automatically, for everyone to read without clicking on the number of comments link. And this is not how embedded comments work.
