Every month, Mediavine publishers get direct access to Eric Hochberger, our Co-Founder and CEO, and Amanda Martin, our CRO, for a publisher-focused live session and open Q&A.

That kind of access is easy to lose over time, but we've built it into how we operate.

Here's what's on the agenda for Wednesday Sept. 2 at 1pm:

👉 An industry and market update on what's changing in search, AI, and monetization

👉 Your monthly Mediavine revenue update, including what we're seeing across the network

👉 New dashboard enhancements built for better visibility into your performance

👉 A first look at upcoming releases at Mediavine

This is exclusive to Mediavine publishers. Save your seat at the registration link in your email. We will see you on Wednesday!

Mediavine’s CRO Amanda Martin sat down with the podcast to talk about what's changing in how people find content online, and what it means for your revenue.

More and more searches on Google now show an answer right on the search results page, so people never click through to a website at all. That's called "zero-click search," and it's up roughly 20%.

The effect isn't the same for every site. Some publishers have lost as much as 70% of their traffic while others are still growing. The real difference is the quality of the people actually reading it. A bot scrolling past your page doesn't earn you anything, where a real, engaged reader does.

The encouraging part is that even with all of this change, Mediavine ad inventory is selling for higher rates than it has in the past two years. Good content and real, engaged readers still hold real value to advertisers, that hasn't changed.

Amanda's advice is to not hold onto how things used to work so tightly that you're afraid to try something new. Search is changing, and so is how advertisers buy ads. Waiting for the old way to come back could cost you more than trying something different.

Just like a house, your website has a lot going on beneath the surface.

Your host builds the foundation. You fill the rooms with the content, photos, and stories your readers come for. In between is WordPress: the themes, plugins, updates, and integrations keeping it all running.

Over time, those additions can stop working together as smoothly as they once did, especially when traffic ramps up.

Join Mediavine and Andrew Wilder of NerdPress on Wednesday, August 26 from 2:00–3:00 p.m. ET for This Old (WordPress) House, an exclusive, practical live session on what tends to go wrong behind the scenes of a WordPress site and what's worth checking before your busiest traffic months hit.

Andrew will cover:
✅ What tends to go wrong "behind the walls" of a WordPress site
✅ How plugins, themes, updates, and integrations affect one another
✅ Common signs your setup needs attention
✅ What to review before peak traffic arrives
✅ Clear steps to keep your site running smoothly when it counts

Whether your site is a charming fixer-upper or a carefully renovated dream home, you'll leave with a clearer picture of what deserves a closer look. Mediavine publishers, save your seat with the registration link in your email.

Meet Max Karr, Mediavine’s Director of Buyer Development 👋

You might not talk to Max directly, but the work he does happens before every campaign that runs on your site.

Max builds relationships with the agencies and brands buying ad space across Mediavine's network, and his whole job is making sure those buyers actually want to spend on premium, well-curated inventory, like yours.

A lot of that work happens behind the scenes, including educating buyers, solving problems before they become your problem, and constantly making the case for why quality publishers deserve real demand. Every one of those conversations is what turns into more revenue opportunity on your end.

His read on where things are headed is that AI and agentic buying are taking on more of the buying process. This means well-curated, high-quality inventory, like Mediavine’s, only becomes more valuable.

Outside of work, Max recently got back from his honeymoon in Italy with his wife Marlie, easily the biggest thing on his calendar for months. Travel is how he recharges. He loves the food, wine, history, and always coming home having learned something. Between trips, he's spending time with his support system, Marlie, his family, and his best pals.

We hit the jackpot having Max here, and so did every publisher benefiting from the demand he brings in. He's part of how we deliver on our mission to build the future of monetization for digital businesses, one publisher at a time.

Google Search page views fell 34% for publishers last year. Google Discover fell 15%. The publishing landscape is shifting faster than most platforms are built to respond to.

Mediavine's answer is to bring publisher experience to the table by giving a deeply respected publisher with years of experience in the trenches a seat in the strategy room.

Cyd Converse is our new Director of Publisher Advocacy & Partnerships. She's run her own publishing business,The Sweetest Occasion, for nearly 20 years. She knows what's at stake when a platform changes the rules. And now she's the person making sure publisher reality is in the room when Mediavine makes decisions.

The role couldn't be in better hands.

The system behind your ads just got an upgrade.

Every time a visitor loads a page on your site, a real-time ad auction happens behind the scenes. In just milliseconds, advertisers compete for the opportunity to serve an ad, with the highest-value bid winning the impression.

Mediavine rebuilt the technology powering that auction process from the inside out, making it faster, more efficient and better equipped to capture advertiser demand.

More advertisers bidding means better matches for your inventory. Better matches mean stronger revenue for you.

And you don't need to take any action, as it's already running on your site.

This is the work we're doing behind the scenes so you can focus on your business. We'll keep building the tech behind your revenue.

Tara's existing video content drove a 56% CPM increase and a 65% RPM increase with Mediavine's Universal Player Plus.

Tara Ippolito of Aldentediva https://aldentediva.com built her audience intentionally. A self-taught home cook turned published cookbook author, Netflix contestant, and go-to destination for millions of home cooks who trust her for fast, family-friendly recipes that work.

Her audience is high-trust and highly engaged, and like many publishers at her level, she already had a full library of video content. The problem was that she didn't have the right technology to unlock its full earning potential.

Mediavine's Universal Player Plus changed that. By connecting her existing video content library to her video player ad unit, it enabled a higher-value ad format that requires publisher video to be present, with no new production, no new uploads, no additional effort on her end.

Tara's video unit went from her second-highest earner to her top performer, without a single new asset added.

This is what optimized monetization infrastructure looks like in practice.
