Do Indian Adsense Publishers need to wait 6 months for Approval ?
There are people who questioned whether Adsense is accepting new application in India or not? As far as I know, I am sure that Adsense is still accepting applications for publishers in India. So if you have a blog or website then there is no one stopping you from applying to Google Adsense.
However, in the recent past years Google Adsense Team reports many fraudulent activities have been involved like fake Adsense account creation, invalid clicks, creating multiple Adsense account on same name and address, inviting people to click on ads, click ad exchanges and lot more. Most of these activities were reported in Asia and prominently from India and China. So this has forced Adsense team to keep a minimum publishers requirement for new publishers from India and China.
According to the new requirement, new publishers should own their blog or site for atleast 6 months under his ownership. So if your blog is not 6 months old and its very fresh then you should have to wait until it gets an age of 6 and then you can go with publisher application. However some publishers have reported that their application was approved although their site was not 6 months old and that is possible only in case if you have high traffic to your site. So if you have good traffic to your blog then you can straightaway apply for Adsense.
Also another question people ask is whether blogspot are eligible for application? The answer is yes, you can still use blogspot blogs to make your application for publishers and there is no requirement to purchase a domain or web hosting to get started.
Last but not least, if you meet up all the requirement mentioned above, there is no guarantee that your application would be 100% approved. Google forces publishers to follow Adsense Publishers policies. Adsense process of publishers approval has been tighten up with through checkup of your blog and just one or two post in your blog are not enough to get your application approved.
To sum it up, to get a new Adsense publishers account in India you should have a blog (not necessarily to purchase domain or web hosting) which should be 6 months old under your ownership. Importantly your site should be in compliance with Adsense program policies. Do check out for Adsense FAQs, tutorial, tips and guides.
