Hi Everyone,

I know several of you have gotten this error message, so I wanted to
let you all know that the problem causing this error message is a
known issue and it's being fixed.

You might see this message if:

a) you try to sign up for AdSense at www.google.com/adsense using a
Blogger blog or another website hosted by Google
b) you try to set up a URL channel that includes "blogspot.com" or
another URL hosted by Google

This issue is being worked on, and I'll let you know when it's fixed.
In the meantime, please feel free to sign up for AdSense with your
Blogger blog directly through Blogger by following the instructions
here: http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en-uk&answer=50288.

Thank you for your patience.

-Jennifer

Thanks for clarifying this, Jennifer.  I wish to place some image-only
ads in my blog, and that isn't possible without setting up a channel.
Please let me know ASAP when this is resolved.  Thank you :)

My account was disqualified because my blog on blogspot was still new.
I am not able to apply for a new adsense account now because it
complains that it was disqualified. While accessing it directly, it
still lets me apply but not for blogspot.
Can anyone help with that. I don't want to use a different google
account.

Hi Jennifer,

I tried to setting up an  AdSense account and got the error("URL
cannot contain a Google host")
Thank you for letting us know that Google is aware of this problem. I
did want to know when the problem will be corrected? 2 days? more?
So my site: http://saabsafety.googlepages.com/home ) is allowed to
have AdSense?
Thank you for your help!

@DcsMon yeah I guess you must read the guidelines and see if you've
missed out something

http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html#quality

yeah now they seem to have problems with hosting ads on a blogspot
account but they are working on it and will fix it up soon according
to the latest updates so we need to wait.

Channels are used to track performance and revenue .Channels have no
effect on your earnings or ad targeting .  You can still add ad Sense
ads to you blogger blogs and Google pages . It is just that you will
not be able to track the performance of your website.
Please read Ad Sense Help , the channel Section .
