-I noticed that your articles don't have read more tag. You need to add it so that the whole content won't be displayed on the home page
- secondly, the concept of your site isn't clear. Do you intend to monetize the site? if yes, then you will have to add some more pages like; About us, contact us, privacy policy
-your site navigation: you need to also segment your posts into different categories in order for your visitors to easily locate what they want.
- Also post more frequently

That will be all for now.

Many people today think that getting Adsense approval is very difficult and requires you to have a “great site”, with lots of visitors to achieve. But it’s good to be realistic; they are certain guideline’s or “know-how” rules your website or blog has to pass for you to get Adsense approval.
Now I will give you 4 great tips and tricks to have get Adsense approval fast within 3 days!!!


4 great tips to get Adsense approval Fast!!

1. Design

Let’s start with the structure of your website, webpage or blog. It is important to have a clean and easy to read template/theme.
What I recommend is to have a white background and the letter text black or dark gray. This will go easy on the eyes of your readers.
Have a header with a menu where the pages or categories will show.In the sidebar, it is good to place recent entries, if possible with a thumbnail (small picture to preview), then a widget to search and if you want links to your web site categories.
Use a minimalist theme that loads easily… Remember Google loves speed!! (learn more about website speed:https://www.nairaland.com/2343465/top-4ways-increase-website-speed#34260867)
It is essential to know that been simple always wins. The Google team aren't looking to be wowed by your website’s beauty; they want your content to load quickly and be easily accessible.

Which brings us to the second point…

2. Pages.

I think this is one of the most important parts. You essentially need to create 3 pages:

-Privacy policy:
This is one of the most common mistakes that every Blogger makes and they do this many times before approval. Although there are people out there that say they have a privacy policy for a blog does not make sense, but they are wrong.
A Privacy policy actually describes to your readers about what they’re getting into your blog, what to do and what should not. So obviously, there’s nothing wrong with having a privacy policy. It shows Google that you value your visitors privacy and will tell them(your visitors) how you will do that. You can write or find the Privacy Policy Generated online (do not need a lawyer anyway).

– About page
Most people have agreed that having an “about” page has greater role and is an important step to get your Adsense approval fast.This will not only help establish a relationship with readers, but it will also make them trust you. Also, write your name and address through which you are applying for the Adsense account.

– “contact us” page.
Clearly, everyone has their own opinion. What one of your readers likes can be annoying for someone else. So it is better to give them the opportunity to talk to you and tell you how they feel about your blog, what they want to be released, what they like or hate.
It will also show the Google Adsense team that your site that really cares about its readers and not only about money and Adsense.

3. Use a Top Level Domain

Basically there are two types of Domains: Internet Top-level domains and Sub Domains.

Some Top-level domains are .com, .net, .org, .info, .me, .gov. Top-level country domains are .ng for Nigeria, .us for United States, .uk for United Kingdom, etc. Sub-domains are ..com ,.tumblr.com, ., etc. It is most important thing to use top-level domain because they help you to increase your site traffic and that can also help you to get Google adsense approval. Although you can use your blogger adsense for your sub-domain, it is always best to work with a top-level domain (you don’t need to break a bank!)
Another important thing about domain is the age of your blog. Because for most countries, Adsense has an age limit. No blog’s age below 6 months has ever been approved.(i might be wrong though!)

4. Content

Clearly you need good content to be approved by AdSense, but the question is how many articles do you need to apply for adsense?
There is no exact answer. Because I’ve seen many established blogs with 400+ articles and Google Adsense keeps rejecting them, while some people with 40-50 posts are enjoying the Adsense program making money. As I said there is no real answer. However, we can always predict things. In my experience, it should only apply after you more than 70 unique articles. Please make sure these are are articles you wrote yourself (unique), you can post articles from other website’s whilst giving due credit, but the large chunk of articles should be your intellectual property.



Also dear readers, please remember that your reason for having a blog should not only be because you want to display adverts on your site, but mainly because you want you readers to enjoy the information you are offering them. Be original, be realistic, be friendly and your visitors will love your website for that. And when you eventually decide to host Adsense on your website, these your loyal visistors will like click on some ads on your website.

Blog because your love your readers, not because you want to display Ads.

I can sure assure you that following these 4 points will help you get Adsense approval fast within 3 working days!!!!

Any comments? I would love to hear from you!!

Waiting to hear from you

radiokilla:
Getting a google adsense acct is a piece of cake. Although it's getting increasingly difficult for Nigerians since we are now towing the line of our indian bloggers - fraudulent clicks- you cannot cheat google. When they have a case against you, you have no say. They are the accuser and also the Judge.

To get approved, just do all the OP said. And link google analytics to your blog. Also be original at first then when you are approved, you can copy all the stuffs on the net.

The Legend that you are required to wait up to 6 months before getting approved is a ruse. I got mine within a month but was 100% original with my post. I had about 40 articles.

So here you are seeking approval. Delete all your copied posts. Then write articles of not less than 300 words.

Also avoid pictures - the google crawler hates it- if you must, then add a description to it.
Errm that's it, i have helped about 7 blogs in getting google adsensed, currently helping 2 of my peeps now. Would love to help but i'm now a busy man. Just do what the OP says and follow my 2kobo. Success.

Hi bro... Please I will need us to chat for ur help on Adsense. This is my blog, need ur thorough advise and corrections. Thanks http://directreporterng.. com

fake news

he said it on Channels TV this morning...

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that they cannot fulfill their campaign promises in Nigeria as the Pro-PDP Senators have hijacked the National Assembly seats.

This was made known today by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Lai Mohammed, in an interview on Channels TV Breakfast show.

Lai Mohammed lamented that it would be difficult for the Executives to carry out their developmental plans and policies, which Nigerians have given them the mandate through the General Elections, under the current Pro-PDP senate caucus.

According to him, “APC can’t fulfill it campaign promises anymore because it didn’t get the Senate President and Speaker that it wanted.

"What we have in the Senate now is the Pro-PDP senates which are not in the interest of our party. How do you expect us to sit with Ekweremadu and Mark to discuss matter of National importance” Lai Mohammed.

The APC, on Tuesday, lost it proffered candidates for the seat of the Senate and House of Representative to some faction of the APC in alliance with the PDP Senators-elect while attending to the meeting at the International Conference Centre in Abuja where they were supposed to have a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.

The meeting end abruptly on hearing the news of the election at the National Assemble where Senator Bukola Seraki and Honourable Yakubu Dogara as the Senate President and Speaker respectively .

This two young men (picture below) were reportedly saved people in mosque from ISIS attacker

In an account from Independent.co.uk, this two friends,who were being hailed as heroes after being killed when the suicide bomber blew himself up, stopped an ISIS suicide bomber from entering a mosque in Saudi Arabia are .

The friends, named as Mohammed Hassan Ali bin Isa and Abdul-Jalil al-Arbash, died after reportedly turning the attacker away from the Imam Hussein mosque in Dammam today.

eyewitnesses claim the man was disguised as a woman and tried to enter through a closed female entrance before going to the main gate, where the pair were manning a civilian checkpoint.

“They saved a lot of lives by stopping the bomber from getting inside the mosque,” a local man, who asked to remain anonymous, told Middle East Eye. “They are both heroes.”

Mohammed Idris, an eyewitness, told the Associated Press that Mohammed and Abdul-Jalil chased the bomber away and died when he detonated the explosives in the mosque car park.

“They chased the suicide bomber when he tried to enter the women's section of the mosque in the south entrance,” he added.

Abdul-Jalil was reportedly 25 and had recently returned from studying at university in the US, getting married just days ago. The bomb exploded in the car park of the mosque in Dammam

One of the men’s mothers, Kowther al-Arbash, is a high-profile writer for Saudi newspaper al-Jazira, Middle East Eye reported.

Photos of the pair were circulating on social media today, with people calling them heroes and “martyrs”.

Videos also emerged claiming to show the fathers of both men praising their sons' heroism.

A video from inside the al-Anoud mosque showed the moment the explosion was heard outside, with prayers being interrupted by a huge blast that shook the building, causing people to jump to their feet and shout in the ensuing panic.

Sometimes you might wonder when the success day would come. Perhaps, you might have lost focus, given up or suspended your goals due to the challenges encountered.
It is said that great things don’t happen overnight; it take some days, weeks, months, even years of preparation, practices, trials, exercise among others but in your own eye, yours is taking eternity.

Alas, you have tried many ways, failed many times, faced bigger challenges that are beyond your mindset or maybe you think the lost opportunity is gone for good.

Friend, life is not all about bed of roses. Some great men you see today, if they should narrate their life experience, have their own rocky-journey story to success.

Imagine if our new president, General Muhammadu Buhari, had stood on his decision not to contest again and given-up his ambition; record will only have it that he contested for the office of the President thrice but the space of being an elected president will be blank. Though he failed 3 times, the 4th one gave him the seat. Remember it took him 12 good years
to gain the office.

Giving up is not the best option for achievers. Never give-up because great things take time to be accomplished. You may never know how close you are to your success except you keep moving until you get their.Face that challenge, resurrect from your failure, and take that risk; if you win, you will be happy, successful and feel accomplished but if you lose, you will learn, get wiser and have a better knowledge on how
to do it in different way.

Final note, it is better to look back in your life and say, “I can’t believe I did that”, than to say, “I wish I did that”. When life changes to be harder, change yourself to be stronger. Remember, winners never quite.

Cabinet members who failed Jonathan
The Nation / BELLO IMAM / 19 hours ago

In the next five days, President Goodluck Jonathan will hand over the nation’s mantle of leadership to the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari. The five-year tenure of the President was topsy-turvy because of the motley crowd in his cabinet. In this piece, BELLO IMAM takes a look at cabinet members who actually failed to deliver, which later rubbed off on Jonathan as he lost the goodwill of Nigerians.

THE reality of leaving the posh Aso Rock Presidential Villa has finally dawned on President Goodluck Jonathan. Before stepping aside, the President has spent the past few days on retrospection climaxing in an emotional thanksgiving service last Sunday at the Presidential Villa chapel. A penitent Jonathan asked for forgiveness and specifically admitted that “we should not have done certain things we did.” In a rare spirit of sportsmanship, Jonathan decided to bear the liabilities of his administration, some of which he never knew; some he inadvertently ignored; and some he did not imagine could cost him a return ticket to office.

While the President recedes into a solitary retirement, having been abandoned by some friends and associates, the activities of some of his cabinet members remain in the realm of public discourse on how they failed Jonathan. Jonathan’s troubled mandate has led to a $60billion debt for his successor, Muhammadu Buhari. It is inconceivable in Nigeria’s history that the nation will run into another debt trap because his predecessors, ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo and the late President Umaru Yar’Adua, left the economy in a stable condition. While Obasanjo secured debt relief for the nation, Yar’Adua left about $40billion in foreign reserve. Yet, some members of Jonathan’s team failed him. These powerful cabinet members wore a larger-than-life image and were actually untouchable. More importantly, their latitude placed the majority in servitude.

Namadi Sambo

Constitutionally, Vice President Namadi ought to be the coordinator of the nation’s economy but he was technically denied the opportunity by his boss. He was, however, in charge of the National Economic Council, the management of the power sector, the privatisation of government-owned companies, especially the power sector. Although seven new plants have been inaugurated under the National Integrated Power Projects (NIPPs), only 4,700 megawatts will be added to the national grid. Two major challenges affecting the energy sector are poor gas supply and transmission of the megawatts.

Persistent outage nationwide in spite of the over $16billion invested was one of the campaign issues against Jonathan. In fact, Jonathan in 2011 assured the nation that before the end of his tenure, Nigerians would have sold their private and noisy power generators. Instead of fulfilling the promise, most homes, offices, Ministries, Departments and Agencies are in perpetual darkness. The crisis of confidence between the VP and ex-Minister of Power, Prof. Barth Nnaji, also slowed down progress and almost eroded the little gains made in the sector. Sambo was seen as unfair to the North in the privatisation programme and it was one of the reasons most Northern elite conspired against PDP.

Anyim Pius Anyim

Though the Secretary to the Government of the Federation is an appointee of the President; he is the spirit of the cabinet because of his role as the political guardian angel. Apart from his primary duty of giving the presidency a direction, the SGF is expected to advise the President on the application of the principles of equality and Federal Character in appointments in order to preserve the unity of the country. The outgoing SGF, Sen. Anyim Pius Anyim, came into the cabinet with a cosmopolitan credential but he has ended as a tribal bigot and a local champion. Worried by the marginalisation of the South-East in the past, Anyim used every opportunity to favour the zone in flagrant violation
of Section 14(3) of 1999 Constitution. The section says: “The composition of the Government of the Federation or any of its agencies and the conduct of its affairs shall be carried out in such a manner as to reflect the Federal Character of Nigeria and the need to promote national unity…”

Out of 50 key appointments made by President Goodluck Jonathan, the South-West belatedly had three. It was evident that Anyim never forgave his clash with ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo when he was the President of the Senate and he went all out to deal with the region. The same neglect of the North-East, North-West and even North-Central accounted for the loss of the presidential election by Jonathan in these four zones. As at the time Jonathan was seeking re-election, he was already wearing a tribal cloak. This reflected in the huge votes he got from the South-East and the South-South on March 28. The President realised the tribal colouration of his administration very late in the day. He sacrificed and attempted to salvage the situation but he could not survive the gang-up by these four zones. Anyim also veered off his mandate by engaging in partisanship with the coordination of the selection of 12 million signatures for the re-election of Jonathan by the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN). Unsuspectingly, the President did not realise that TAN was a deft move by Anyim to escape being purged from the cabinet. He had his cake and ate it but Jonathan was the ultimate loser.

Okonjo-Iweala

The apparent collapse of the economy under the watchful eyes of the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, showed that she might have been over-priced or over-rated for the job. The indices have clearly indicated a sick economy but the minister kept on reassuring the nation that it is healthy. The liabilities are as follows: fuel subsidy scandal; outstanding N200billion fuel subsidy; $60billion debt for Buhari administration; the mismanagement of the controversial $20 billion or $1 billion oil cash; borrowing of N473billion to pay salaries; the depletion of Excess Crude Account to a paltry $2billion and arbitrary granting of waivers. Today, annual budget implementation is less than 50 per cent, capital projects are stalled and most states cannot pay salaries to workers. Even Oknokjo-Iweala’s colleagues knew that her economic pill was voodooist. It was in this hard-time circumstance that Jonathan sought the mandate of the electorate who rejected him at the poll. Nigerians voted for the All Progressives Congress (APC) to change the status quo. Notwithstanding her braggadocio, three major newspapers in the country have written editorials to write off Okonjo-Iweala’s so-called performance. In his verdict, a former Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, said: “Our public finance is haemorrhaging to the point that estimated over N30 trillion is missing, or stolen or unaccounted for, or simply mismanaged.

“Under you as Minister of Finance and Coordinator for the Economy, the basket of our national treasury is leaking profusely from all sides. Just a few illustrations! First you admit that oil theft has reduced oil output from the average 2.3-2.4million barrels per day (mpd) to 1.95mpd, meaning that at least 350,000 to 450,000 barrels per day are being stolen. On the average of 400,000 per day and the oil prices over the past four years, it comes to about $60billion stolen in just four years.”

Bala Mohammed

About emerging as the worst Minister of Federal Capital Territory since 1975, under Sen. Bala Mohammed’s watch, a less than three to five-kilometre road leading to his office from the NTA axis could not be completed for five years. He was more preoccupied with allocation of plots of land than building on the legacies of his predecessors. Once Bala Mohammed gets praises from the Presidential Villa, he is okay even if the residents are in pain.

He struggled to manage his predecessors’ projects haphazardly. Some of these projects are the Vice President’s residence, Umaru Musa Yar’Adua highway to the airport, Kubwa-Zuba expressway, and Senate President’s and Speaker’s official quarters. A few days ago, Mohammed wanted the President to inaugurate the Umaru Yar’Adua highway when it was obvious that the project (paid for upfront by the administration of the late President) has not been completed. A clever Jonathan said he was only around to inspect the project (not to commission it).

The ‘legacies’ of Bala Mohammed include non-functional street lights, decrepit six districts in the FCT, high rate of crimes, general insecurity, dysfunctional CCTV, dilapidated school structures, poor waste management system, importation of one-year life span buses for mass transportation.

The inability of Mohammed’s administration to live up to his promise to rehabilitate the UN Building destroyed by Boko Haram and insecurity in Abuja contributed to the erosion of confidence in Jonathan’s administration by some countries like the US, the UK and others.

Diezani Alison-Madueke

Arguably the most powerful minister Nigeria has ever produced, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke presided over the oil sector with such a tight grip as if she is on an everlasting assignment. In the last five years, she has incurred the wrath of the International Oil Companies (IOCs) which are divesting in Nigeria’s oil sector. Some of her defects in office are unending fuel scarcity nationwide; fuel subsidy scam; instability in NNPC having worked with five Group Managing Directors;  alleged lavish spending of a whopping N10billion on chartered flights by NNPC for her use and other operations; $20b oil funds unaccounted for; fall in the sale of crude oil; non-passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill(PIB); award of N4billion pipeline contracts to ex-militants and militia leaders; increase in oil theft and lack of accountability.

The oil sectors stank to such extent that an external auditing firm, PWC was commissioned by the presidency to look into the account of the NNPC. Under Diezani, the nation does not know how much oil it is selling, the whereabouts of the proceeds and the accruals from the excess funds gained from crude oil benchmark. The minister by her actions and inactions became a liability to the presidency, to the extent that Jonathan’s government was judged by the rot in the oil sector. Unfortunately, the President could not muster courage to check the perceived excesses of the minister. Nigerians, however, voted out Jonathan on March 28 because they were tired of the story of corruption in the oil sector.
Musiliu Obanikoro

The lousy ex-Minister of Defence, Amb. Musiliu Obanikoro virtually abdicated his constitutional responsibilities and used the influence of his office to embark on ‘Operation Conquer South-West’ for Jonathan. Backed by the Armed Forces and other security agencies, he went about the conquest mission as if there will be no tomorrow. Along the line, he burnt his fingers in Ekiti State where he was accused along with others of engaging military intelligence to rig the governorship poll for Governor Ayo Fayose in 2014. The video of the plot went viral and Obanikoro’s gangster politics was a stigma for Jonathan.

But Jonathan tolerated him because he needed votes from the South-West electorate. Rather than support Jonathan, the sophisticated South-West voters proved a point that the region believes in Omoluabi (a perfect gentlemanly conduct) and not gangster politics. Obanikoro was one of the reasons Jonathan lost South-West and why Lagos State was impenetrable for PDP. When Jonathan realised this, it was too late. The President made Obanikoro a Minister of State for Foreign Affairs to drum a message into his ears that he knew all along that he was not an asset. The ego of Obanikoro was deflated on the date of his swearing in when he was announced as a Minister of State for Foreign Affairs. It took the intervention of some of his colleagues to cheer him up by saying “a minister is a minister.”

Jelili Adesiyan

Twice, the President was shocked that the Minister of Police Affairs, Jelili Adesiyan, is a political paper weight. As part of the dummy sold to the President, Adesiyan was touted as a politician who could tackle the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the South-West having been part of the defunct Alliance for Democracy (AD). Jonathan was oblivious of the fact that Adesiyan’s appointment was used by the lobbyists to shore up his image, which was battered as a result of his arrest over the assassination of the late Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Chief Bola Ige.

Since coming on board, Adesiyan attracted more controversy to Jonathan administration with the use of policemen to intimidate political opponents. His impunity reached its peak with an assault on a former Governor of Osun State, Chief Isiaka Adeleke, by his police/security aides. That singular thug-like assault cost the PDP a big loss in Osun State during the governorship, presidential and National Assembly elections. Since the humiliation of PDP, Adesiyan has withdrawn to his shell pretending to be concentrating on a job he has not made any impact since he was appointed.

Abba Moro

The tardiness of the Ministry of Interior, especially the Nigerian Immigration Service, under Abba Moro led to a disastrous recruitment exercise which caused the death of 15 graduates in March 2014. For a year, the administration of Jonathan suffered an image crisis and it could not recover during the poll. The rating of Jonathan fell when he succumbed to pressure from some National Assembly leaders and governors to retain Moro, a former local government chairman who adopted local benchmark in his attitude to issues, including such a recruitment tragedy.

While Jonathan treated Moro with kid gloves, a minister in the same shoes in South Korea resigned from the cabinet. By the time Jonathan came up with N75million compensation for the families of the recruitment scandal on March 15, 2015, it was obvious that it was because of his re-election bid rather than empathy for the deceased. Nigerians voted for change, not the re-election of Jonathan.

Mike Onolememen

In February, the Minister of Works, Arc. Mike Onolememen, wasted no time in scoring himself a little below 50 per cent in office. Speaking on a radio programme, he said the Federal Government had completed only 62 out of the 133 projects awarded.

He said: “What is important about all these projects embarked upon by this government is that out of 133 of them awarded by the Jonathan administration, 62 have already been completed and tremendous progress has been made on the rest. When we set out to reposition our roads, we noticed a gap in the funding of road infrastructure in Nigeria. If you merge our requirement, which was an average of about N500billion yearly, against the budgetary provision of about N120billion, it is clear that we needed to do something quick to bridge the gap.”

The reality is that most of the arterial roads in the country are bad; they include Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway; Lagos Ibadan Expressway, Ajebandele-Shagamu Road. Onolememen, in September 2014, assured the nation that the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway will be completed 18 months earlier than

Chinedu Nebo

The Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, is a prayer warrior in the cabinet but the magic wand has not effected any change in the power sector. He does not have the capacity to manage the sector like his predecessor, Prof. Barth Nnaji. The installed capacity of the power sector is now 4,700 megawatts but generation is a little over 2,000megawatts in spite of the privatizsation policy. As at May 19, it was reported by a daily that eight distribution companies have declared force majeure in their operations. Besides the eight, the Bureau of Public Enterprises has engaged in a share buyback deal leading to the payment of N29.2billion to Integrated Energy Distribution and Marketing Company(IEDM), which is the investor in Yola Electricity Distribution Company.

The situation in the power sector is clumsy, unstable and scaring to investors. The epileptic power supply nationwide worked against Jonathan during the poll.

Aminu Wali

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Amb. Aminu Wali, has been running a lack lustre ministry, which has not earned the confidence of the diplomatic community unlike the case when the late charismatic ex-Minister, Olugbenga Ashiru, was in charge. Jonathan’s administration is bowing out with its international reputation at its lowest ebb because there is no effective salesman in charge. This setback was obvious during the last elections when the US and the UK issued a joint statement warning against alleged plans to tamper with the results. The conspiracy was obvious because the foreign affairs policy has been on a wheelchair.

He can go to hell for all I care. I think he's going to understand the true meaning of HERO when he steps down. The word was just used to restrain him from getting power drunk so that he can handover. After that, his enemies will then come down heavily on him.

I do miss him for his transformation, though.

Transformation Agenda Of Goodluck Jonathan
