How To Approve YouTube Videos Channel
There are multiple factors that go into not being sketchy, especially with multifaceted campaigns like those on YouTube. Allow me to give tell why your being suspended, and give you 4 Solutions To Get Your YouTube Ad Approved.
How Do I Know If My Ads Are Approved?
If you go to All Video Ads, then click on the Ads tab at the top of the screen, a list of your video ads will pop up. Next to the ad it will tell you if the ad has been approved or not. If it has been disapproved it will tell you why. In this case the video has no content. That is because we have taken those videos off our YouTube channel, so they no longer exist.
Get Your YouTube Ad Approved
Problem
Frankly, there are industries that Google doesn’t like. Some industries have a reputation for not having the customers best interest in mind. Here are some of the industries that Google is hardest on…
Weight Loss/ Diet Pills
Financial Investing
Real Estate Investing
Any Get Rich Scheme
What do these industries have in common? They promise something that they can’t necessarily fulfill. Much of what they are promising is not easy to accomplish, but they offer simple solutions.
Solution
Let me stress that many companies in these industries are not sketchy. We work with multiple companies in these industries. Their ads don’t get disapproved and they have a positive ROI. The difference between the industry and these clients is that they are offering true value. They are selling their expertise and the right way of doing something. If you want to beat an industry reputation do not offer a quick solution. Instead offer value based on your experience. Teach the right way to do something, don’t offer shortcuts.
Value Is Important To Get Your YouTube Ad Approved
Problem
Ads demonstrate little unique value to users
Promotions that represent you, your products, or your services in a way that is not accurate, realistic, or truthful
Solutions
Be specific in each aspect of your ad. Your video ad, your headline, your landing page video, and your offer needs to show what you’re truly going to do for the customer. At Video Power our offer is not vague. We do not say we will make you more money. We are specific, we will drive targeted traffic to increase sales.
Avoid gimmicks. Your video should show the value of your product. Your hook, your promotion, and your CTA should all build the value of your product. Gimmicks are a no no. Examples…
make a million dollars a day
lose 400 pounds in a week
Avoid Looking Like Spam
Problem
Most people live by the credo if it looks like spam, it probably is spam. I know I do after I once bought a 300 dollar puppy off an online ad, and the puppy never came. Google lives by this credo as well. They cite some of their main concerns as…
counterfeit goods
dangerous products or services
products or services that enable dishonest behavior.
For this reason they will not approve, “promotions that prompt users to initiate a purchase, download, or other commitment without first providing all relevant information and obtaining the user’s explicit consent.” The last thing Google wants is a million people waiting for a puppy… like me.
Solutions
Take the time to develop a quality video with a quality offer. If it looks sketchy you will be put in the dangerous goods, products, or services category by association. Here is an example of a quality ad that shows value…
Avoid Inappropriate Content
Problem
This is pretty self explanatory. Google wants you to avoid the following..
hatred; violence; harassment; racial; sexual, religious, or political intolerance, or organizations with such views; content that’s likely to shock or disgust; content that’s exploitative or appears to unfairly capitalize at the expense of others
Solution
Dont be afraid to test. Some of you may not see your content as inappropriate. You also may think it is funny, or classy enough to not be inappropriate. Try testing different landing pages and videos to see what headlines, content, and offers get approved. Testing will also help discern what landing pages work best.
