Blogger is a special free blogging platform which allows AdSense monetization.
You can turn your passion for writing into a little bit of profit. By default,
Blogger provides you with a blogspot domain and you can choose your own
subdomain name freely.
It appears that AdSense signing up process for blogspot may have been
changed. If you already have an active AdSense account, you will be allowed to add your blog directly using Add Site.
To continue setting up AdSense, you need to go to your host and complete the sign-up there. Please sign up directly from blogspot.com.
Your blog's root domain is https://blogpsot.com and no one has access to this
domain other than Blogger itself. Therefore, if you want to monetize your blogspot
blog, you need to do it directly from Blogger account. Go to Blogger's
Settings > Earnings > Sign Up for AdSense.
Not every blog is qualified to use AdSense. If your blog is not eligible, you
will not be able to find the sign up button. You need to learn about
AdSense's eligibility requirements for Blogger
so that you can earn from your blog.
Recently, one of my blogs, https://poetmax.blogspot.com has become eligible
for AdSense. As of right now, I own five blogs with blogspot domain which are
ready to be monetized. I will share my experience on how to sign up for
AdSense in blogspot.
AdSense for Blogspot signing up process
Step 1: Go to Blogger's Settings > Earnings > Sign Up for AdSense.
After you have clicked the sign up button, you will be redirected to a page in which you
need to choose an email that you are going to use for AdSense. One activated AdSense account can handle multiple websites once it has been activated/approved.
If you have an AdSense account which has not been activated, it is better to delete that account first to prevent confusion.
If you already have an active account, do not create multiple
AdSense account. Instead choose the email which has been
associated with your existing AdSense account.
Step 2: Associate your blog with AdSense
Confirm that you are using the correct email. Then, click the accept the association button. After that, you will also be required to
review and accept AdSense term and condition.
Step 3: Confirming that Blogger and AdSense has been associated
If you are using custom domain to sign up for AdSense, you will receive a confirmation code which is used to connect AdSense to the blog. If you are using Blogspot, AdSense may redirect you back to your Blogger account and tells you that you can now enable AdSense widget.
You can add AdSense widget from
Blogger's Layout > Add a Gadget > AdSense > Save. Usually, you can place the widget on the sidebar. Don't forget to Go to Blogger's
Earning > Show ads on blog > Yes > Save settings. This will allow you display ads as soon as your account is activated.
Step 4: Connect your blog to AdSense using Auto Ads code
Auto ads code is used to confirm that your blog is connected to AdSense. You need to copy the code and paste it underneath your Blogger theme's
<head> and click save. You will be able to get the activation code from AdSense's Homepage. Now, your website is ready to be reviewed by AdSense team.
Later, you can also find the code from AdSense Ads > Overview > Get code after your account has been fully approved. This single code can be used on all of your qualified blogs. It'll be
able to connect (activate) multiple qualified sites to your AdSense account
Placing the code will also enable auto ads. After your blog has been fully approved you can enable auto ad if you go to AdSense Ads > Overview > Select the blog > Slide the Auto ads to the right >
Apply to site > Save.
Step 5: Waiting for AdSense to Review the Blog
After you have added auto ads code in your blog theme, you will need to wait for several days until you hear back
from AdSense review team. You will receive an email from AdSense which notifies you whether your blog is accepted or rejected.
If your application is rejected, you need to find the source of the problem and resolve it. After that, you can reapply. Once your account has been fully approved, you will be able to edit your personal info, add multiple websites, manage ads and receive payment.
AdSense approval process is quite strict. It is possible that your blog may
get rejected for policy violations. You will need to resolve the problems and
then reapply. Leave a comment below if you find any difficulties in adding blogspot to AdSense.
