Hi everyone, I need some advice.

I am the owner of an educational history website for students, teachers and enthusiasts (Italian traffic). I built the website completely from scratch (custom code, no WordPress). It is very fast and currently gets about 18,000/20,000 pageviews per month, all from seo.

My problem: I have applied to Google AdSense many times, but I always get rejected automatically for "Low Value Content". I think the bot gets confused because it's a custom-coded site with long academic text, so it's a false positive.

I am now looking into Google Certified Publishing Partners. My questions are:

1. If I partner with an GCPP network, will I have a better chance of getting approved to serve Google ads (Ad Exchange)?
2. How does the GCPP approval process work? Will a real human at Google finally review my site instead of the basic AdSense bot?
3. Do GCPP partners actively help you fix issues to make sure you pass the Google review?

Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
