AdSense eligibility checker
Enter your site's address to find and fix the content, required page, technical and policy issues that are often overlooked in AdSense applications, before you apply.
What is an AdSense eligibility checker?
An AdSense eligibility checker estimates whether your site has common rejection reasons before you apply to Google AdSense. It checks 18 items automatically, including content volume, privacy policy, contact and about pages, ads.txt, cookie consent, mobile friendliness and policy-risky terms.
Some AdSense requirements are technical and some are about content. The tool finds technical and structural gaps and gives you a checklist for things that can't be measured automatically, such as originality and copyright.
The result is only an estimate: approval is always Google's decision. The goal is to help you find and fix overlooked issues before applying and lower the risk of rejection.
How to use the AdSense eligibility checker
- 1
Enter your site's main address (e.g. https://yournews.com).
- 2
Press "Check"; the tool reviews your homepage, robots.txt, ads.txt and sitemap.
- 3
Fix missing items, review the "Check these yourself" list, then apply to AdSense.
How do we check?
- Your homepage, robots.txt, ads.txt and sitemap are downloaded once by our server; nothing on your site is changed.
- Content count is estimated from sitemap URLs or homepage internal links.
- Required pages are found through link texts and URLs on the homepage (e.g. "privacy", "contact", "about").
- The risky-terms scan only covers homepage text and can't tell news context apart; the result is a warning.
- The score is an estimate; AdSense approval is solely Google's decision and depends on factors that can't be measured automatically, such as content quality, originality and policy compliance.
- The same site is served from cache for 10 minutes, and checks per minute are limited.
