About the AdSense Readiness Checker

The AdSense Readiness Checker looks at a site the way an AdSense reviewer would before you apply. It reads the home page, robots.txt, the privacy policy, ads.txt, the sitemap and a sample of pages, and checks what the AdSense Program policies require (a privacy policy that covers cookies and Google ads, a crawlable site, real content on every page, no prohibited content, consent for EEA and UK visitors) separately from what reviewers commonly expect (About and Contact pages, enough pages, clear navigation, ads.txt).

Our server requests the URLs you enter, like a crawler: it reads the response without running the page's scripts, and the analysis runs in your browser. The URLs and results are not stored.

How to use the AdSense Readiness Checker

  1. Enter your site address and press Check readiness.
  2. Fix everything under "Required by AdSense policies" first; a failed policy check is a rejection.
  3. Work through the common expectations, then the manual checklist that no tool can verify.
  4. Apply in AdSense, add the code or verification tag it gives you, and keep it in place until the review ends.

Frequently asked questions

Why was my site rejected for "low value content"?

It is the most common reason. Google wants pages with substantial, original content that is useful on its own. Thin pages, copied or auto-generated text, and sites with only a handful of posts are typical causes. There is no official minimum number of posts; publish genuinely useful pages and reapply.

Do I need ads.txt before applying?

Not to apply, but add it as soon as you have your publisher ID: AdSense warns about a missing ads.txt and earnings can suffer without it. The line is google.com, pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0.

Does a high score mean AdSense will approve my site?

No. Approval is Google's decision and depends on things a tool cannot see: originality, traffic quality, the owner's age and policy history. The score shows how many of the checkable requirements and common expectations the site meets.
