AdSense Readiness Checker: See what’s missing & fix it fast
Stop guessing why AdSense says no. Paste your site below — we’ll scan for the 8 most common problems and tell you exactly how to fix them, in plain English.
🔎 Quick scan — does your site pass the AdSense checklist?
We’ll check ads.txt, mobile viewport, privacy policy, AdSense code, robots.txt, content amount, and more. No tech headache.
Checking your homepage and key files...
Why website owners love this scanner
Instead of searching forums, you get a complete list: ads.txt, mobile friendliness, privacy policy, HTTPS, and content. No more digging.
Every red flag comes with a simple, step‑by‑step fix. If something’s broken, we tell you how to patch it — even if you’re not a developer.
Fix the issues we find, and you’ll apply with confidence. Plus, your site gets faster and more visitor‑friendly along the way.
Use it daily, weekly — whenever you tweak your site. We built this to help small publishers and bloggers, not to collect your data.
Why AdSense rejects sites (and how to turn it around)
We’ve helped thousands of site owners, and the same 6 issues come up again and again. Here’s the real scoop:
1. Not enough helpful content. Google wants to see that your site offers real value. If you have 5 short posts, they’ll likely say no. Our tool checks homepage word count, but the big picture is your entire site. Fix: Aim for 25+ detailed articles (500+ words each). Add an “About” and “Contact” page to build trust.
2. Missing ads.txt file. Without this tiny file, ads won’t show, even after approval. We check if yoursite.com/ads.txt exists and has the right Google line. Fix: Grab your publisher ID from AdSense → “Account” → “ads.txt management”, create a file named ads.txt, paste the line, and upload it to your site’s root folder.
3. AdSense code not installed. Some folks apply but forget to put the ad code on their site — instant rejection. Fix: After approval (or while preparing), copy the AdSense script and paste it into your site’s <head> section. WordPress plugins can help too.
4. Site looks bad on phones. Most traffic comes from mobile. If your site isn’t mobile‑friendly, AdSense won’t approve. Fix: Use a responsive theme, and add the viewport meta tag (our tool tells you if it’s missing). Test with Google’s Mobile‑Friendly tool after fixing.
5. Search engines are blocked. If you accidentally put a “noindex” tag or disallow crawling in robots.txt, AdSense reviewers can’t see your site. Fix: Remove “Disallow: /” from robots.txt and delete any “noindex” meta tags. We’ll flag these in your scan.
6. Privacy policy? Missing. Google requires a clear privacy policy that tells visitors about cookies and ads. No link? Red flag. Fix: Create a Privacy Policy page (use a free generator like TermsFeed), then link it in your footer or main menu. Also add a contact page — it shows you’re legit.
Once you clean up those six things, you’re in a much stronger spot. Even current AdSense publishers run this scan every month to avoid policy warnings.
How to use this tool in 3 steps
- 1. Enter your full website address (like https://mycoolblog.com)
- 2. Click “Scan my site” – we’ll fetch your homepage, ads.txt, robots.txt in about 15 seconds.
- 3. Review the results: Green = good, orange = could improve, red = fix before applying.
- Bonus: Each issue has a “How to fix it” box — follow those steps, then scan again to see your progress.
When all red issues are gone, you’re ready to apply for AdSense. If you’re already approved, use the tool once a month to catch small problems before they hurt your earnings.
Extra reasons to run regular scans
Even if you’re not applying today, this tool helps you build a stronger website. Clean structure, mobile‑friendly layout, and working ads.txt mean better SEO, happier visitors, and higher trust. We also check for SSL (HTTPS) — that little padlock matters for both AdSense and Google rankings. Plus, when you eventually apply, you’ll already tick most of the boxes.
Don’t forget internal linking: connecting related articles keeps people on your site longer, which increases ad revenue potential. Our scan reminds you to do that too. Small habits like these make a huge difference.
