Creating an AdSense Eligibility Checker for Your Website

In this tutorial, we’ll walk through how to create a simple AdSense Eligibility Checker using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. This tool will allow users to input a website URL and simulate the eligibility status based on predefined criteria.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. This tutorial assumes familiarity with these technologies.

Step 1: Setting Up Your HTML Structure

Start by creating a new HTML file (index.html) and setting up the basic structure:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>AdSense Eligibility Checker</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
  <h2>AdSense Eligibility Checker</h2>
  <input id="urlInput" placeholder="Enter the Site/Blog URL" type="text">
  <button id="checkButton">Check Eligibility</button>
  <div id="progressBar">
    <div id="progress"></div>
  </div>
  <div id="progressMessage"></div>
  <table id="resultTable">
    <tr>
      <td>Status</td>
      <td id="status"></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Reason</td>
      <td id="reason"></td>
    </tr>
   
  </table>
</div>

<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Step 2: Styling Your Application with CSS

Create a new CSS file (styles.css) and apply the following styles to enhance the visual appeal of your AdSense Eligibility Checker:

body {
  font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
  background-color: #f9f9f9;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  height: 100vh;
  margin: 0;
}

#container {
  background-color: #ffffff;
  padding: 20px;
  border-radius: 8px;
  box-shadow: 0px 0px 10px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
  text-align: center;
  max-width: 400px;
  width: 100%;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

h2 {
  color: #333333;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
}

#urlInput {
  width: calc(100% - 18px);
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  padding: 12px;
  border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
  border-radius: 6px;
  font-size: 16px;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

#checkButton {
  padding: 14px 24px;
  background-color: #4CAF50;
  color: #ffffff;
  border: none;
  border-radius: 6px;
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 16px;
  transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}

#checkButton:hover {
  background-color: #45a049;
}

#progressBar {
  width: 100%;
  background-color: #f2f2f2;
  border-radius: 6px;
  margin-top: 20px;
  overflow: hidden;
  height: 20px;
}

#progress {
  width: 0%;
  height: 100%;
  background-color: #4CAF50;
  transition: width 0.3s ease;
}

#progressMessage {
  margin-top: 10px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: #666666;
}

#resultTable {
  width: 100%;
  margin-top: 20px;
  display: none;
  border-collapse: collapse;
}

#resultTable td {
  padding: 12px;
  border: 1px solid #dddddd;
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #333333;
}

#resultTable td:first-child {
  font-weight: bold;
  background-color: #f2f2f2;
  width: 30%;
}

#resultTable a {
  text-decoration: none;
  color: #4CAF50;
}

Step 3: Implementing the JavaScript Functionality

Create a new JavaScript file (script.js) and add the following code to handle the logic for checking eligibility and simulating progress:

document.getElementById('checkButton').addEventListener('click', function() {
  var url = document.getElementById('urlInput').value;
  if (isValidUrl(url)) {
    simulateProgress();
  } else {
    alert('Please enter a valid URL.');
  }
});

function isValidUrl(url) {
  var pattern = /^(https?:\/\/)?([\da-z\.-]+)\.([a-z\.]{2,6})([\/\w\.-]*)*\/?$/;
  return pattern.test(url);
}

function simulateProgress() {
  var progress = 0;
  var progressBar = document.getElementById('progress');
  var progressMessage = document.getElementById('progressMessage');
  var resultTable = document.getElementById('resultTable');

  var interval = setInterval(function() {
    progress += 1;
    progressBar.style.width = progress + '%';
    progressBar.innerText = progress + '%';

    if (progress >= 100) {
      clearInterval(interval);
      showResults();
    }
  }, 10);

  resultTable.style.display = 'none';
  progressBar.style.width = '0%';
  progressBar.style.backgroundColor = '#4CAF50';
  progressBar.innerText = '0%';
  progressMessage.innerText = 'Please wait, analyzing your site...';
}

function showResults() {
  var resultTable = document.getElementById('resultTable');
  resultTable.style.display = 'table';
  var status = Math.random() < 0.5 ? 'Eligible' : 'Not Eligible';
  document.getElementById('status').innerText = status;
  document.getElementById('reason').innerText = status === 'Eligible' ? 'Your site meets AdSense policies.' : 'Your site does not meet AdSense policies.';
}

Step 4: Adding to Your Website

To integrate this AdSense Eligibility Checker into your website:

1. Upload index.html, styles.css, and script.js to your web server or hosting provider.
2. Link these files in your existing website structure or embed the index.html content into an appropriate section of your website.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you’ve created a functional AdSense Eligibility Checker using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Users can now input a website URL to simulate AdSense eligibility status based on predefined criteria. Enhance this tool further by customizing styles, adding additional validation, or integrating with backend services for real-time checks. This tool can be a valuable addition to websites offering guidance on AdSense eligibility and policy compliance.
