Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Extremely disappointing experience. After earning $991, my account was suddenly banned without any valid explanation. They approved my earnings first and then claimed “invalid traffic” at the time of payout, but provided zero proof. I had completely stopped sending traffic 5 days before the ban, and the zone they deactivated had no traffic at all. Still, they banned my account and refused to pay what I earned legitimately. Their customer support is slow, unhelpful, and ignores the main issue.This behavior feels unfair, unprofessional, and highly misleading for honest users. I cannot recommend this platform to anyone. Be very careful before trusting them

    I have been using Monetag on my website for a while now. Initially, I faced challenges implementing the code through your official WordPress plugin. Due to these issues, I decided to uninstall the plugin and switch to the manual implementation method, which is now working perfectly for me. However, I feel the plugin could use significant improvements to better integrate with WordPress websites. I recommend enhancing its functionality and user-friendliness to ensure it works seamlessly without impacting the WordPress dashboard experience. I hope the support team considers these suggestions to make the plugin more efficient and easier to use for all WordPress users. Thank you!

    If you are looking for decent advertisement for proper websites, then avoid this lot! They show nothing but cheap adult content and their popups are aggressive as hell to the point that users can barely navigate your website. Had to remove it immediately (within 24 hours) as it really reduced the quality of my website.

    I use multiple platforms to monetize my website and social media traffic. I can’t say Monetag is the best one, but in combination with other top players it works pretty well. Customer support is ok, not lightning-fast, but I can wait 5 minutes.
