What the heck do Google Adsense meant by insufficient content!?

As an intending Google Adsense publisher or even as an Adsense publisher, I am quite sure that most of you on the process of trying to get Adsense approval, might have gotten the Insufficient Content reason from Adsense for your application not be approved to serve Google ads on your blog/website.

Sometimes you kept wondering what this insufficient content could mean especially when you know that you have 100+ pages on your blog/website and you are still being denied approval as a result of Insufficient Content.

But have you taken out time before to look at these two combinations of words Insufficient content and to see how they play out in your Adsense application being denied.

Now let’s take a closer look at those words and what Google Adsense really meant by them.

In the blogosphere, Insufficient Content is ambiguous, in that it has additional meaning from the literal perspective.

We can say here that Insufficient Content pertains to either the quantity of unique pages you have on your blog/website or the length of words in each of your single page.

Must read: Long blog posts or short blog posts, which is recommended?

Remember that when we talk of your blog page(s) here, each unique blog post is classified a single page. In other words anytime you hear us mention blog page, you can equally replace it with blog post.

Whether blog posts or pages, they comprises of what you often regard as content, which is the heartbeat of blogging and why bloggers are often regarded as content creators.

Having understood that, remember also that we are focusing on Insufficient Content and not just content alone. So, adding the word Insufficient to content which we have dissected above, you now get not enough content(s) for your blog/website to be approved of Adsense.

Now I have succeeded in presenting to you the meaning of Insufficient Content to either be quantity of unique pages in your blog/website, or the length of words in each of the pages. 

And as I have mentioned earlier that sometimes you notice you have 100+ pages, which you assume should be enough, but still greeted with insufficient content message from Adsense when applying for Adsense.

When you keep on getting this type of message on the course of your Adsense application, as a sharp person, you are left with no other option than for you to go back to your pages and check the length of words in them.

You can read: Is Google Adsense overrated?

I am sure at this point that when you do that, you might be shocked yourself and  having read up to this extent, you will notice that most of your blog posts are very short and not even up to 400 words and that is simply the reason why you still get the insufficient content message from Adsense.

Google on their part pays more attention to quality and value that each of your blog page can offer to your prospective readers, and in most cases, they believe that writing more (not rambling) tend to produce more value. To large extents they are right, because you can’t expect say a 3 sentence content to produce more juice that will satisfy readers than contents with multiple hundreds words.

Even in Search Engine ranking, you will easily notice that longer, well-crafted blog posts perform better than their shorter versions.

You now see that Google even value just 10 unique and lengthy blog posts than 100+ very short blog posts without much meat. That is the reason why you hear some say that with only 10 blog posts or even less, they got Adsense approval with their blog whereas you with 100+ posts, you are still being greeted  with Insufficient Content message.

Finally, it pays to always take out your time in crafting contents that will always be of values to your readers and in order to keep Webmasters Policies flag flying high and all in all keep the entire web that you and I use sanitized. Hey…remember “Content is King”
