I am left here wondering why Google Adsense kept rejecting my application. I have posted 11 articles now, all featured and most have more than 1000 words! They keep telling me I have insufficient content although I think I do have enough now. So what's the problem?
You're receiving a generic message.
For applicants in your country, you need to have an established HP account for at least six months and have 20 - 30 published Hubs, which have been online for at least six months.
If you apply before that time, you could hurt your chances of being approved at all.
So, publish more Hubs and then, after six months, apply again. Then, you'll probably be approved. We have many writers from the Philippines with approved AdSense accounts.
I kept re-applying because I thought that it would approve me right away. I didn't know that I need to wait 6 months! Thanks for the information!
You're welcome. I'm sorry you didn't know this before. Just hang in there and I'm sure you will be approved in the future.
So does that mean though that I will not be earning anything here until 6 months? Is there any other way?
Sorry to hear this. It is my understanding that Adsense is really becoming more and more difficult to get an account with. It will happen - just keep writing and creating more content.
Laudemhir: Until you are approved for Adsense, the only way you will earn income is from sales commissions using your personal Amazon Associate ID.
I just applied for one, thank you for the information!
If you want to, until you are approved for AdSense, you can turn off that advertising on your Hubs. This won't effect the Amazon products you want to display and your articles might look better without the other ads, especially since you won't be paid for them.
Okay, I will try that one! Thanks for the help, ads are indeed useless this time for me, so why not get rid of it!

I have published 21 featured hubs. And then I applied for Google AdSense. But it did not approve my account saying "Thank you for your interest in Google AdSense. Unfortunately, after reviewing your application, we're unable to accept you into AdSense at this time. We did not approve your...

It appears that there has been a recent change on my profile page. Underneath the number of published hubs, there is a number of featured hubs. I do not want this to be shown. My ratio of featured hubs is less than 50% of the number of published hubs. My understanding of why...

Is a thousand views and 9 featured hubs enough for my AdSense to be approved?More than a thousand views, nine featured hubs and a few more unfinished write-ups. Should this number be enough? Also, the URL I placed for my application is my homepage here instead of an articles's URL. Is that correct?

Let me preface this by stating I am not trying to be mean or a troll. In fact, I avoid the forums because I don't want to get involved. But with so many posts about the topics I'm about to discuss, I wanted to put in my two cents and to offer a reality check to old and new hubbers...

Let me be honest with you, I joined Hubpages in the hope that I will be able to earn some extra income to supplement my college expenses. I know there is no such thing as easy money and I shouldn't expect to live off my earnings on hubpages. But, If I get a good number of my hubs featured, how much...
