Not approved by adsense

Being unable to use adsense on my website

[Niun]

Hello. I have made a web app using React.JS and have been struggling to get approved by adsense.
The reason is my text to html ratio is low. My website doesn't revolve arround article writing, instead it's just supposed to be a simple service, so i have been struggling to add text. Initially i added bunch of random headers and text, but then i removed most of that since i read that i could get penalised.
Now i have removed everything that could have gotten me penalised, like keyword stuffing and hidden text, but i don't know if it's good or is it still wrong.
waiting for 4 weeks everytime for adsense to recheck my website is a bit stresfull. so i would like to improve it's chances as much as i can before the day comes.
Any tip appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

@Niun ... Welcome to Webmasterworld!

Commonsense coding means do what is necessary and avoid "gaming".

Not all products or services are benefited from an app over a web presence.

We can't give site reviews (or app reviews) on the public side of Webmasterworld. There's a paid supporters section that can address more specific issues.

Good luck!

Have you checked to see if it is not a technical issue? What does Googlebot see when it goes to your website. If all it sees is an empty shell while you app is waiting for user interaction then no amount of text will fix it. Make sure that Googlebot can render your content.

Also, Adsense is not the best fit for single page web-apps. If the page only loads once, then you will only ever get a single ad impression. You may need to use Ad Manager in combination with AdSense to auto refresh ads after certain user interactions or find another means monetization.

Thanks For a Reply Nick.
Google bots sees the whole web properly as it is, which is a low amount of text, and that's what adsense says. I have been reading about this and , just like you say, there are other people who say that adSense doesn't go well with spa. I really don't have anymore meaningful text content to add, so if this check up fails i think i will try facebook ads.

One solution, which is actually more than just a solution but an enhancement, is to have text describing the output of your app. Say you have a temperature conversion app, instead of simply showing a result say for input 0 degrees C, you show 32 degrees F. You provide a text summary of the output. input 0 degrees returns, "0 degrees Celsius is equivalent to 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and this is the freezing point of water."

This provides added content that not only benefits the user but allows Google to get a better idea of the purpose of the website.

Obviously the benefit is limited for temperature conversion, but I assume what you have created is more elaborate, and if it isn't then you really need question the value over all. Also, it is very easy to do poor job at this, which wont help, but with a little bit creativity and coding skill is feasible to produce something great.
