Hey everyone,

I just wanted to share a quick update for those looking to join Mediavine. It seems they’ve shifted their entry requirements. While we used to focus purely on reaching a specific monthly session count (like 50k), the focus has now shifted toward proven revenue.

According to their latest update, to apply for the main Mediavine platform, your site now needs to generate at least $5,000+ in annual ad revenue. This change ensures that a site is truly ready for their premium demand.

For those of us who aren't at that $5k mark yet, they are directing people toward Journey by Mediavine, which acts as their "on-ramp" for growing sites and starts at 1k sessions.

Has anyone else noticed this shift affecting their application process? It definitely changes the roadmap for newer publishers!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been with Monumetric for exactly one month now. I recently hit 100k pageviews, and my total earnings are only $105.

The part that confuses me is my traffic quality: 93% of my traffic is Tier 1 (mostly US). Based on what I’ve read here before, I was expecting a much higher RPM with this kind of audience.

Some details:

• Network: Monumetric
• Traffic: 100k PV / month
• Audience: 93% Tier 1
• Duration: 1 month since setup

Is this just a "learning phase" for their ads, or is $1.05 RPM way too low for Tier 1 traffic? Should I look into other ad networks like Mediavine or Raptive once I hit their requirements, or is there something I should fix on my site first?

Would love to hear your experiences. Thanks!
