As a blogger, you have surely heard of the AdSense program from Google which is regarded as one of the best contextual advertisement programs available.

In this post, I will demonstrate how you can create an AdSense account for your website.

For beginners who are not familiar with AdSense, it is an advertisement program for publishers started by Google, wherein contextual ads are placed on your blog and you get paid when someone clicks on these ads.

In this blog post, I present an essential guide for beginners who are not sure how to apply for AdSense.

There are a couple requirements which you must meet before you can apply for AdSense:

First, of course, you need to have a website .

You also must be above the age of 18, otherwise you will need to apply using the name of a parent or guardian who gives you permission to do so.

AdSense has recently changed the account approval process to include the following steps:

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating an AdSense Account:

First, go to the Signup page for AdSense.

This form is straight-forward. You simply need to enter your website address and select the content language. For the website URL use your blog address, and make sure to add it without “http://” .

This is the most important part. The “payee name” is very important. Make sure to use the same name under which you have a bank account , as AdSense will be sending you checks or EFT payment under that name.

So ensure your bank account name and payee name are exactly the same.

The AdSense team will review your application again after you add the codes, and your account will be activated with an Adsense Pin that will be sent to you.
