AdSense Readiness Checker

Why there's no actual "ban" verdict

AdSense suspension and policy-violation status is private account data that Google exposes only inside the account itself - no public API, crawl, or heuristic can see it from outside, so any tool claiming to check "if a domain is banned" from a URL alone cannot really know that. What this tool checks instead are the publicly visible factors that most often come up in real AdSense approval and policy reviews: a correctly configured ads.txt, a robots.txt that doesn't block Google's ad crawler, a discoverable privacy policy, reasonable homepage content depth, and whether ads are currently rendering at all.

Why ads.txt matters so much for AdSense approval

ads.txt is a publicly crawlable file that declares which ad networks are authorized to sell inventory on your domain - a missing or misconfigured ads.txt is one of the most common, easily fixed reasons legitimate sites see reduced ad revenue or policy flags, since it's specifically designed to let ad buyers and Google verify your site isn't being impersonated elsewhere.

Why a discoverable privacy policy is treated as a real signal

Google's publisher policies explicitly require a privacy policy that discloses data collection and cookie/ad-personalization practices - a site with no discoverable privacy policy page is an easy, concrete policy gap to flag and fix, unlike more subjective content-quality factors that can't be checked automatically.

What this check cannot tell you

Passing every signal here does not guarantee approval or reinstatement, since Google's actual review also weighs content originality and quality, site navigation and user experience, traffic sources, and your account's policy history - all factors that require Google's own internal review and aren't visible to any outside tool.

Frequently asked questions

Can this tell me if my AdSense account is suspended?

No - account and suspension status is private data only visible inside your own AdSense dashboard. This checks public signals that commonly relate to approval and policy standing instead.

I pass every signal here but I'm still not approved - why?

These are common factors, not the complete list Google uses. Content quality, site navigation, traffic sources, and policy history all matter too, and are reviewed by Google directly, not checkable from outside.

Why does ads.txt matter so much?

It's a publicly crawlable file declaring which ad networks are authorized to sell your inventory. A missing or misconfigured ads.txt is one of the most common, easily fixed causes of reduced ad revenue or policy flags.

What if my robots.txt is blocking the ad crawler?

That would prevent Google's ad systems from properly crawling your pages to serve relevant ads, which can suppress earnings or trigger policy warnings even on an otherwise compliant site - worth fixing immediately if flagged.

Does having ads currently serving mean everything else is fine?

Not necessarily - ads can serve on a site that still has unresolved policy gaps elsewhere. Treat each signal independently rather than assuming one passing check covers the others.
