Hello everybody welcome to my blog post where I talk about my ordeals with Adsense.
Here is the story: It was a Friday night and I was browsing through some videos on Youtube and a lets player I've discovered recently was talking about partnerships and money on Youtube so I began watching because I've been wanting to be partnered for a while now. So he talked about the glory days where you had to work for partnership compared to today where all you need is like 10 subs and you can become partnered.
Well I've battled the idea of partnership my entire time on Youtube because I felt that I should just keep Youtube as a hobby, I was too young to worry about money plus I had no bank account or anything like that till earlier this year. Then in August after hitting one thousand subscribers I was offered a partnership from TGN. I was starting to think being partnered would be a good idea now that i'm in college because I could use some extra cash to help with paying for college and/or saving up for equipment for my channel (controller, capture card possible, a new computer, microphones/headsets) and so I was being recruited by TGN but it was so much pressure and I got really scared and I ended up chickening out and removing the recruiter from Skype and after calming down for a month I decided I was finally ready to handle a partnership.
So getting back to the video I was watching he was talking about how he has always been partnered with TGN but discovered Centus who was promising better payouts so I looked into it and was happy with their site and figured "Why not?" and so I applied and I was pretty much approved but was missing one thing..and one thing only..an adsense account.
I had no idea what an adsense account was so I googled it and found a way to apply and began signing up..however when asked to list a site to display adds on, I could not list my Youtube account and it gave me a link to sign up for monetization and so I signed up for that on youtube and I still couldn't list my youtube account but It suggested if you had no website then you can make a blog and use that to start off...well I made the account but had no idea you had to have about 6 months worth of content on it (supposedly from what I've head) and so now I'm stuck blogging so I can get approved. I don't dislike blogging though, I'm thinking about what else I can blog on here because I really enjoy it. Though I don't know when my blog will be ready to be approved to after this post i'm going to apply for the 4th time and If I don't get approved then i'll try every 10 posts (20, 30, etc) until I am so I can finally officially partner for Centus.
If you have any tips at all that would be really great! If you read this post then thank you very much!
