AdSense has rejected my blog.
I have these pages: about, cookies policy, privacy policy, terms of use, Contact us, U.S. State Privacy Laws Notice.

I got 30 posts, all above 1.500 words long, some even over 3.000 words and notes with references and links to the sources. Each article has 1 featured original image created with AI. All ranking over 83 in Rank Math.
They are written using AI (ChatGPT 5 model thinking study mode from Abacus.ai chatllm) and then edited with Grammarly.

Pagespeed insights gives these metrics:
Mobile: Performance 59. Accessibility 95. Best Practices 96. SEO 100.
Desktop: Performance 82. Accessibility 91. Best Practices 93. SEO 100.

It shows the following:
Approval status: Needs attention
Status details: Low value content
Ads. txt status: Not found

Your site does not yet meet the criteria of use in the Google publisher network. For more information, review the following resources:

Where else can I do to get the site approved?

How much traffic are you getting, how many daily visitors?
 
First add ads.txt file on the root folder for your website with the code given by AdSense and fix it.
How is your ranking in google? how much traffic you're getting? if you're getting traffic, you will get approved.
Another thing user experiences its important make sure you don't have any empty category/tags pages linked ex. in menu. also avoid linking to category/tags pages, from posts.

I have been approved by AdSense with 10 posts all 300 words, before. I was getting daily 300 traffic.

Content if you published same content that's already in google results you will not get approved, it has to be better, or unique content than the existing content. I would also suggest using humanise ai content from chatgpt for the first 2 paragraphs of the content. Happy to take a look at the site, you can pm me.

Daily visitors around 1 or 2.
In the last 28 days I got 50 total visitors: 14 from organic search and 38 direct. Some can be myself testing the website. 45 are new visitors mainly from the USA.

In the last 28 days:
Total impressions 1.3K which is a 153% increase over the previous period.
Total clicks 21.

I've just started the website. 1 month ago I did have very low quality content and I got rejected. But this time the content is high quality (if we don't count it's AI generated).

And you think Adsense rejection is your biggest problem? I started a site 2 months ago, I get 200 visitors and I am not going to install Adsense untill I hit at least 500 visitors/day, makes no sense

I would suggest getting some traffic before applying to AdSense, because no traffic means no money even if you get approved by them. You are rejected 2 times now, another reject means you have to wait 3 more months to apply again so.

I've added the ads.txt file just today using the plugin Ads.txt Manager.
The ranking is low but for certain keywords is high enough to

I'm not using social media yet to get traffic. I got the accounts in social media created but I was writing the articles first.

You mentioned "also avoid linking to category/tags pages, from posts." Then I will remove the link to categories from posts.
But I got a question: I have a glossary page from A to Z with links to each letter's page and each page has 3 links with definitions. Each definition links to the complete definition page. So in total around 72 definitions. This is apart from the long articles SEO optimized. Is it negative to have this glossary and those 72 posts with definitions?

My idea was to be getting approved because of having nice content and growing traffic with SEO and social media while adding more content.
If AdSense considers that traffic is that much important, then I'll change the approach.

But in my opinion, if the content is good, there's no harm for AdSense in approving low traffic sites. Unless they incur some costs which I'm not aware of.

You need lot more traffic, lot more than that. What you gonna do adsense without traffic anyway, sell it? just curious.
 
Google usually doesn’t like AI heavy content, especially if everything feels the same. Add some manual touches, personal experiences, and set up ads.txt. I only got approved after I added that file to my blog.

There seems to be a misunderstanding. When I said "avoid linking to category/tags pages, from posts," I was referring to a specific SEO practice. The general idea is to keep the link juice flowing to your main content (long articles, etc.) rather than to your category or tag pages, which are often thin on content.

The glossary you've described is a completely different scenario and, in fact, can be a positive SEO strategy if done correctly and as I said before focus on getting traffic before applying to AdSense, you will be approved very quickly like in 2 days.

Use Ahrefs to check traffic and track keywords etc. its free for verified sites (sites you own).

My initial intention was to create courses to sell on my own website and also an ebook (promoting on social media), but that requires more time and effort than a blog and right now my personal circumstances don't allow it. So I thought that I'd could be blogging for now and build an audience (while getting some income from ads) while waiting for my situation to change (it will) and allow me to create the courses.

As I was telling to @Marko T , I wanted to create nice content (it's AI generated but I review it, edit, change things and I have 7 years formal college education in the topic) and a user friendly website to get approved by AdSense. Then, I'd continuously grow traffic with SEO and social media.
I didn't see any reason for AdSense to reject a good blog without traffic as it can be increasing, and promotion is on my side, they don't have to do anything. Unless they incur some costs which I'm not aware of.

Isn't it ok to use Google Analytics and Search Console to track traffic?

How should I get that traffic? Is social media ok?

You can create ads.txt with Adsense, but that's not a major issue. It's normal for Adsense to reject you for low-value content, especially now that it's difficult to get a blog-type website approved. Is your website niche?

The niche is personal finance.

Yeah, its ok. tracking is more of personal preference I just use Arefs because it's more like mix of both GA and SC, 2 data at one place. I would suggest try it if you find it useful use it. it's free.

Any traffic is good traffic, as long as its legit.
 
Now its completely random, if the first guy love your website, you are good to go, if he doesn't, you are in bad luck, and later, you have a hard time to get approved.

I got 150IP sites and can't pass the approval, I applied more than 10 times.
