Hi!

I just launched my blog a few days ago, so I'm not generating much traffic at the moment, but I'd love to monetize this platform when I reach the requirements. Grow seems like it would be super useful to help me understand traffic and growing my website! Should I apply to Journey right away to get notified as soon as I'm eligible or wait until my blog is more established?

Hey Anita - This is a great question!
To be eligible for Journey by Mediavine, start by installing Grow. Grow will provide us with details about your traffic and audience, and we’ll use those details to evaluate eligibility. You are welcome to apply at any time and run Grow in the meantime, but we do tend to prefer at least 4 months of domain history.

You can read more about Journey's requirements here.
Here's a great article on content optimization which is a nice place to focus while you wait. We'd also recommend taking a look at our Recommendations and Best Practices for Grow to be sure you have everything set up in a way that will benefit you and help you grow your traffic more quickly.

Journey is Self Supported

Our support staff is monitoring this forum everyday for bugs related to ad delivery, the display and functionality of the Journey dashboard, and any bugs related to the onboarding process. We are typically unable to assist with non-bug related issues like RPM performance expectations, issues setting up the ads.txt file, and questions already answered by our existing help docs.
