Things are changing with the way advertising networks work for blogs and the abolishment of 3rd party tracking companies. Mediavine have the Grow feature to add subscribers to their network and Raptive have a few different methods one is form capture which I’m going to talk about.

When someone signs up for the recipe box on a food blog their email address if your are running Raptive ads is added to their network on sign up.

Any time someone that’s a member logs into the site their email address is checked again by Raptive to see if it is in their database and then the higher RPM ads are shown to them.

I was talking to the people in Mediavine support and unfortunately they do not currently have a from capture feature for email addresses. You can use the recipe box feature with Mediavine and send people that sign up your newsletter links with identity extensions and if they are signed up you will earn higher RPMS when they visit your site. The only difference is that when users sign up to the recipe box they won’t be added to the Mediavine network with that process but you can still earn revenue from their visits to your blog if they signed up some where else to Grow and you send them identifier links in your email newsletters.
