As a young blogger, who has filled my head with too many fairy tales and junky e-books about blogging I read online and to follow my Passion, which is international politics and analysis.
I quickly grabbed my self a laptop, and started posting indiscriminately, not minding who owned it or not yet, just trying to hit some amount of post, so as to start making some contributios online and earn cash with my posts, not until I realised that every post has a value not only to you, but also to those that will be reading and also those that you may be copying their materials online without knowing the implication you will face, not until when I applied for AdSense account, then Google laughed and struck me down many times with the same language of insufficient content, then I wondered and ask, why insufficient content after al my posts?
Somebody from Google group responded and told me the truth that gave me the liberation. Read up the guidelines, it might help to stop some of the problems you might be going thru with Google AdSense account approval.
