How to Upgrade a Hosted Account to Non-hosted Normal AdSense Account

What is Hosted Account and How to Upgrade it to Non-hosted Normal AdSense Account

 Google recently introduced a new class of AdSense accounts called Hosted AdSense accounts or Limited AdSense accounts. These AdSense accounts are very similar to the regular AdSense accounts with the exception that it can be used only on AdSense Host Partner Websites. If your account is a hosted account, you will see a label in your account as shown below:

 AdSense Host Partner Websites are the websites which use Google AdSense APIs to implement revenue sharing. You can apply for new AdSense accounts through such sites.

What is meant by Hosted account label shown in my AdSense account

Any AdSense accounts created through revenue sharing sites (Host Partner sites) will be considered as "Hosted accounts" and will be restricted to use only in the same and other AdSense revenue sharing websites.

 Some examples of popular Host Partner websites are:

Blogger.com
YouTube.com
IndiaStudyChannel.com
Techulator.com (Techulator.com is no longer a Host AdSense account and those who have "Hosted Account" cannot use their AdSense account to monetize from Techulator.com).
Hubpages.com

These host partner sites allow you to apply for new AdSense accounts and monetize your content created by you on those sites. With the recent changes by Google, if you get an AdSense account created through those sites, that account will be restricted from using the same account in other personal websites, until you get this restriction removed.

 

How to remove the label "Hosted account" from your AdSense account


Google has made it easy to promote your AdSense account from hosted AdSense account to regular AdSense account. All you have to do is, submit the name of a website owned or controlled by you where you want to use your AdSense. Then Google will do a manual review of the website and check for policy compliance. If the website you mentioned meets the quality criteria and policy compliance requirements, Google will upgrade your account to normal account and the "hosted account" label will be permanently removed.

NOTE: If you do not have your own website, you may not be able to upgrade from Hosted AdSense Account to regular AdSense account. It also means, you will not be able to use your hosted AdSense account in non-Host revenue sharing sites like fdns.com.

 Follow the steps below to upgrade your account and remove the label:

1. Login to your AdSense account

2. Click on the tab "Home" and click on "Account Settings"

3. Look for the label that says "Only host sites are allowed to show ads for your account". Click the "edit" link next to it.

 4. In the next page, you need to provide the url of the website on which you want to show your Ads. Just type the full url of the home page and click "Submit"

 The website will be submitted to Google for review and you will hear back from them within a few days. Just in case Google decide not to approve your request to remove the limitation, you can still continue to use the AdSense in the host websites.

NOTE: Before you submit the application, you must implement the ad code in one or more pages of the website you are submitting for review. It will show only blank ads until your application is reviewed and approved but they will not approve it unless you implement the ad code with blank ads.
