AdSense Publisher ID Monitoring

Get an email or webhook when a domain's estimated monthly visits or Domain Rating moves, or when the number of domains observed on a publisher ID changes.

How to start

Sign in and open Monitors in your Dashboard. Add a domain or a publisher ID, then choose email, webhook or both. Free accounts include 5 monitors; paid plans include more.

Monitors

What is tracked

  • Domain monitors: estimated monthly visits and Domain Rating, compared with the last stored snapshot. Visits alert on a change of more than 10%; Domain Rating on a change of more than 5 points.

  • Publisher monitors: the number of domains observed on that publisher ID. Any increase or decrease triggers an alert.

What an alert contains

The email is a small table with one row per changed metric: previous value, current value and the change.

Monthly visits12,40014,100+13.7%
Domain Rating3841+3

How often it checks

Monitors are checked every hour. Traffic estimates and publisher data change once a month, so visits and publisher alerts usually follow the monthly update. A new monitor stores its first snapshot and has nothing to compare until the next check.

Limits

  • If one site leaves a publisher ID and another joins in the same period, the count stays the same and no alert is sent.
  • Each monitor watches one domain or one publisher ID. Groups of publisher IDs cannot be monitored together.

A shared publisher ID is an observed monetization relationship, not proof of common ownership.
