There is a little time frame between getting an approved Google Adsense account and actually seeing an ‘active’ status on the Google Adsense Code. I will explain.

Wait, be patient, do not panic, relax and go take a cup of coffee, cross your leg and smile wide, open your teeth, and let the sparkling sunbeam through it.



You know why?

It takes between 3–24 hours for your Google Adsense Ads to start showing. I was once there, I panicked even more than you, I was restless, then peace and joy came when I started seeing the Ads showing on my blog.

However, there are a few things you need to check for;

  • As you have stated that you were recently approved for the Google Adsense program, it may naturally take between 3–24 hours before you start seeing Ads. Google has improved a lot since that time you asked this question and trusts me, It may even take less than that.
  • But the best way for you to know is you need to create an Ad code, give it a name from your Google Adsense dashboard. Then check it after a few minutes to an hour to see the status.
  • The status of the created Adsense Ad code will change from ‘Not Active’ to ‘Active’. Once you see this ‘active’ status, it means it should start showing automatically and immediately on your website/blog.
  • However, if it is not yet showing on your blog/website, you will need to clear the cookies and history of your browser, restart your browser and check again.
  • If it is not showing, it is likely due to the fact that you did not place it correctly in the BlogSpot settings or WordPress settings correctly. I mean, you should copy and paste the Ad code between the opening header and closing header. This works very well for both Blogger and even WordPress.

If you are still encountering a problem and the Adsense Ads is not showing, talk to me.
