Hmmm. Webmasters I'm worried. I was on Google webmasters forum complaining about how my adsense application was denied and a guy offered to help me find out what the problem is. We started chatting on whatsapp and He said I should send him the email I received from the adsense team. After sending the email, he said that the problem is that my contents are not unique and they are copied. I was shocked to hear this because I know every content from my blog is original and I wrote them from scratch. Then he started uploading Screenshots of my posts on nairaland and said that my contents are appearing on nairaland (mind you this guy is not a nairaland member). I laughed and told him I posted those contents myself (with my links) in order to get more traffic to my blog. He said Google crawl sites and if they find your content on another site they'll think it's copied and won't approve your AdSense.
I became confused because lots of bloggers post on nairaland, does it mean Google doesn't crawl their sites too? I just got tired of the whole thing so I decided to get more advice on the issue from nairaland before I know what to do. Thanks

Mynd44 Pls take to homepage, I need all the advice I can get.

if you don't have Adsense yet, you may want to stop posting full contents on nairaland as it will be seen in the eyes of google as duplicate content.


appearing on two website makes it duplicate and also thinks you copied it. so google won't know if you posted it or not. so try this stop posting full content on nairaland when you have not gotten approved.

The truth is Google is becoming more strict especially for Nigerian Adsense applicants, if you were to apply from a smaller African country like Mauritius or Cape Verde, you will get instant approval even with same content!

They require extra unique contents from Nigeria, since the country is already over saturated and abuse is highly emminent.

tech blog in Nigeria is not exactly an oversaturated niche. What do you now call celebrities gossip blogs? If you know other ways to monetize let me know cos I don't want to dump this blog. Thanks

OK. But will Google forget about the other ones I've posted?

you mentioned you don't want to dumb the blog.

guess it's because if Adsense disapproving it. this is what happens when you only see Adsense as the only means of monetization. Adsense is only one pieces of a pie. use other means. I sell anything worth selling on my blog. whether affiliate, my personal service or any other. provided you have something to sell, promote it on your blog. Adsense should never be a reason to dumb your blog.

It's pathetic how many Nigerian bloggers rely solely on Adsense, even a popular technology blog (sorry, I don't want to mention name) went as far as changing domain name because he was banned from Adsense, and loosing a DA of 37 and over 6 years old domain at that.

You should stop posting on Nairaland for now because it would always come back to haunt you in the end. I'd like to believe your blog is new, which means you DA and PR are next to nothing right now.

For every content you post on Nairaland, it is assumed that Nairaland is the owner as the bots would put its PR and DA into consideration.

Na today you dey know
Never ever post your hard written content on any forum or platform, not even on places like reddit, quora, and social media sites. Don't ever make that mistake.
There are a lot of tactics to build back links without posting your original content.
Let me give you just one simple tip, use article rewriter to spin the content before posting to other sites.
Now, is there remedy to your problem?
Yes there is, modify, or delete all those articles you posted on Nairaland and use article spinner to edit em before posting...
Good bye.

Yes they are paid software like spinnercheif and wordAi.
But The one I am talking about is the free ones like

https :// seotoolscentre.com / article-rewriter-tool

There are many free rewriter tools online, just Google free article spinner and you will see many lists.
The difference with the paid and free ones, is that you have to make some adjustments after spinning using a free spinner. While the paid ones give you a better rewritten content.
