Monumetric vs Sovrn
These two do not measure the same thing. Sovrn asks for No published minimum, while Monumetric asks for 10,000 pageviews/month — so a site can qualify for one and not the other regardless of how it is growing. Check both against your own numbers rather than assuming one is simply harder.

Frequently asked
- Can I run Monumetric and Sovrn at the same time?
- Yes. Neither Monumetric nor Sovrn is exclusive, so they can run alongside each other. Both still need their lines present in your ads.txt to bid.
- Which pays more, Monumetric or Sovrn?
- On published RPM bands Monumetric sits higher, but RPM is driven far more by niche, geography and ad layout than by the network itself. Treat the bands as a range, not a forecast.
- What happens to my ads.txt if I switch from Monumetric to Sovrn?
- Switching means replacing one network's authorised seller lines with another's. The dangerous window is between the two edits: if the old lines are removed before the new ones resolve, or a line is mistyped, bidding drops and nothing in either dashboard flags it. Monitoring the file through a switch is the point at which it matters most.
Switching networks? Watch the ads.txt
A network switch is the single most common way an ads.txt ends up broken — and the loss is invisible until the month closes. Monetific checks the file continuously and tells you the moment a required line goes missing.
