There was A LOT that I had no idea I needed to do to be able to get to the goldmine that is Ezoic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">I searched the internet every step of the way but unfortunately, I couldn&#8217;t find the information I needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">So in this article, I am going to tell you everything that I wish someone had told me about joining the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ezoic.com\/ezoic-access-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"Ezoic Access Now Program\">Ezoic Access Now Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"signing-up-for-ezoic-acces-now-program\" data-block-type=\"core\">Signing Up For Ezoic Acces Now Program<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">First thing&#8217;s first, you are going to have to actually <strong>sign-up for the program<\/strong>.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\"><em>I don&#8217;t know.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">But I will say that it definitely doesn&#8217;t hurt to sign up via an accredited and trusted partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"get-ready-to-be-tested\" data-block-type=\"core\">Get Ready to Be Tested<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">This is where things get interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">To make sure that you are truly invested in the process, <strong>Ezoic is going to test you<\/strong> by giving you full courses about the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">There are <strong>three courses<\/strong> in total and each course comes with exercises and<strong> a test that the end<\/strong> that you have to pass to be able to move on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" data-block-type=\"core\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"429\" height=\"229\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-1.png 429w, https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-1-300x160.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">The courses are all in video format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">But don&#8217;t think that you can skim through these finish them in a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">For one, <strong>Ezoic won&#8217;t let you skip through the videos<\/strong>. And some of the courses are almost 2-3 hours long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-3-ezoic-access-now-courses\" data-block-type=\"core\">The 3 Ezoic Access Now Courses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">The program is separated into three different courses. Like I stated earlier, each course has its own set of videos, exercises, and tests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Once you pass the tests, you will be <strong>given a badge for that course<\/strong> and then you will be able to move on to the next one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">One of the main requirements to get accepted for monetization via Ezoic (with less than 10k views) is that you must pass all of their courses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Keep in mind that this is<strong> NOT a guarantee <\/strong>that you will get approved for their ad platform. However, you will also not be accepted without it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"basic-course\" data-block-type=\"core\">Basic Course<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">This is the first course that you are going to go through where you will get to know everything about Ezoic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Here is where you will get more of an understanding of what Ezoic is and how it is going to work with your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Personally, this was <strong>one of the most interesting courses<\/strong> for me because it made me realize that Ezoic does so much more than just handle your ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Did you know you can even host your site on Ezoic? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\"><strong><em>I know you didn&#8217;t!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">See, this is why you need to do this course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"monetization-course\" data-block-type=\"core\">Monetization Course<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Here is where your brain is going to have to do some work. If you didn&#8217;t<strong> have a notepad ready<\/strong> before, you are definitely going to need it now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">The <strong>monetization course<\/strong> is going to get you through all of the information about ad placeholders, how the mediation process works, and so much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">It is literally full of <strong>technical digital marketing jargon<\/strong> that I have never heard before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">I have to say that it was <strong>one of the more complex of the three<\/strong> so you might want to have some extra focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"speed-course\" data-block-type=\"core\">Speed Course<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">The last course is the <strong>speed course<\/strong>.

data-block-type=\"core\">Ezoic is quick to decline your application if you do not <strong>have original content <\/strong>or if it is plagiarized from somewhere else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">That means that you can&#8217;t just simply take someone else&#8217;s property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">That also means that if you are an affiliate marketer and an affiliate product owner has those &#8220;ready to post&#8221; articles that are already done for you, <em>you can&#8217;t use them.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">There are hundreds of others who have used those exact articles as well and that will not look good for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"google-compliancy\" data-block-type=\"core\">Google Compliancy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-block-type=\"core\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"429\"

that has been denied for Adsense, then most likely it will be denied for Ezoic monetization as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\"><em>Why? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Because <strong>Google and Ezoic are partners<\/strong> and Ezoic follows Google&#8217;s guidelines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">That means that if your site goes against Google&#8217;s terms, it automatically goes against Ezoics as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">So things like adult sites, scammy sites, and sites with things that Google deems offensive are not going to get approved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">So make sure that you <strong>double-check Google&#8217;s standards<\/strong> to make sure you are not going against any of those.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"self-hosted-website\" data-block-type=\"core\">Self-Hosted Website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">This one should also be a given but you&#8217;d be surprised by the number of people who do not know this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">If you are not on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/why-you-need-to-self-host-your-blog\/\" title=\"self-hosted website\">self-hosted website<\/a>, then you&#8217;re not going to get approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">A self-hosted website basically means that you are paying for the domain and hosting and have some form of ownership over the website itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">There is no way that you are going to be able to do all of the integration necessary on a free hosting plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">You can learn more about

is by far the most commonly overlooked aspect when it comes to having a website in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">You need to have a <strong>privacy policy and terms and conditions page<\/strong> on your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Whether you put them into one or make them into separate pages is completely up to you. However, I personally recommend that you keep them separate because it makes things easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Without these pages, you most likely will have a harder time getting approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">You can easily find places online where you can <strong>generate these pages for free<\/strong> that will be compliant with Google&#8217;s terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"at-least-some-traffic\" data-block-type=\"core\">At Least Some Traffic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">If you have no traffic at all, maybe you should wait a bit before thinking about joining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">If you read my section earlier about getting delayed, Ezoic did say that they need <strong>a certain amount of traffic<\/strong> to be able to at least analyze the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Exactly how much is going to be up to them to decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Personally, I got reviewed and approved <strong>with less than 200 views<\/strong> on my blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">They need just enough to verify that the traffic is legit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-contact-or-about-me-page\" data-block-type=\"core\">A Contact or About Me Page<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">It is very important that you have a <strong>Contact or About Me page<\/strong> on your blog. This is regardless of what ad network you chose to join.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">This is what will help the search engine and the networks learn who you are. This is all about cracking down on spam websites and making sure that people will be able to find you if they need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">You don&#8217;t need to write all of your personal information or your life story. But you should write enough for people to be able to establish who you are and what your platform is about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">In my case, I am a faceless Youtuber so I don&#8217;t even show my real name. But I use my brand name and give all of my<strong> social media<\/strong> so that I can be found if need be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"content-worth-investing-in\" data-block-type=\"core\">Content Worth Investing In<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-block-type=\"core\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"485\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9-1024x485.png\" alt=\"how to make high-quality content\" class=\"wp-image-2005\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9-1024x485.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9-768x364.png 768w, https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9-769x364.png 769w, https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/image-9.png 1112w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">It is very important that you have content that is worthy of investing in. This means <strong>content that marketers and companies are going to want to pay for<\/strong> when it comes to advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">This is why having too narrow of a niche may bring you problems if you are wanting to scale or grow your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">If your niche is too low-value then you may not have a lot of advertisers that will want to show their premium ads on your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">You may also find that your traffic will be very limited which will not only make it <strong>harder to make more money<\/strong> from your blog but will also give you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themindedmarketing.com\/how-to-double-your-epmv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"a lower EPMV (Earning Per Mille Viewer).\">a lower EPMV (Earning Per Mille Viewer).<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\" data-block-type=\"core\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Having been through the process myself with <strong>a much smaller blog<\/strong> than average gave me a great perspective of how everything works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">Most of the people who have written about the <strong>Ezoic Access Now program<\/strong> joined when they had much more traffic than I did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">As a beginner, it can be very upsetting when you click on an article talking about getting money from a small blog.
