Frequently Asked Questions
1. specific traffic requirements?
Yes, MGID generally requires websites to have at least 3,000 unique visitors per day (or roughly 90,000 per month) to be accepted into their network. They also review the site's content to ensure it is original, updated regularly, and free from illegal or prohibited material. Smaller sites may be rejected until they grow their audience.
2. How do I get paid?
MGID offers a variety of payment methods including PayPal, Payoneer, WebMoney, and Wire Transfer. Payments are typically processed on a Net-30 basis, meaning earnings generated in January are paid out at the end of February. This schedule allows time for traffic verification and ad validation.
3. specific minimum payout?
The minimum withdrawal threshold depends on the payment method chosen; for PayPal and WebMoney, it is typically $100. However, for Wire Transfers, the minimum is significantly higher, often around $1,000, due to the banking fees involved in international transfers.
4. Can I use MGID with AdSense?
Yes, MGID is fully compatible with Google AdSense and is often used alongside it to maximize revenue per page. Since MGID focuses on native content recommendations (usually below the article), it does not compete for the same banner space as AdSense, allowing for a diversified ad stack.
5. What is native advertising?
Native advertising is a type of paid media where the ad experience follows the natural form and function of the user experience in which it is placed. MGID ads look like "Recommended Stories" or "You Might Also Like" links, which typically result in higher engagement rates than traditional display banners.
