The reasons might be any of the following:


Problem with website / blog : There might be some issue with your website. Either the Adsense policies are not compliant or any other issue. There might be issue with the other pages of website and not on the homepage. Just resolved the issue and reapproach the adsense team once you have sorted out, for a second time review of your website. 

Multiple Adsense Account : It is not advisable to have multiple Adsense account for the same publisher. You cannot have another account if you already have one associated with your email. (If you still want to have another account, use the details of either of your family member or a friend with different email address).

Not enough content / posts : As I have mentioned in my earlier post, you must have atleast 20+ posts / pages before apply for adsense account. You website must not be in construction phase. It must be fully developed and working. You must have enough pages so that the adsense crawlers find out the exact details of your website and the niche, to serve you better ads. 

Content Issue Error : You website must be unique in all respect. You should not plagiarism the content. Website with genuine and relative information are trusted and acceptable to everyone, be it a user or adsense team. Please be extra careful while participating in affiliating programs. Affiliating content must not be shown on the page where adsense ad codes are placed. Either you can remove the affiliating content or use very little space of your page for them. 

Issues with Traffic Source error :  Websites intends to use adsense must not have their traffic redirected from unauthorised pages/applications. You should never participate in paid to click programs or forcibly click tips. You should never include any kind of scripts to your pages where users redirected from unauthorised sources.   

Navigation Issue Error : Navigation menus such as Homepage, About Us, Contact Us etc. must be clearly visible and navigable. The users must not be served with confusing menus. I have already suggested you that you must have a simple template or theme which is easily navigable. You already know that in today's world, everyone has limited time to explore things, no one has enough time to themselves engaged to your website for the whole day. If you have something unique information, it must be readily available and accessible. If it is not accessible, you would lose the unique traffic. Adsense prefers website which can serve better to the users.
