What SHE Media is
SHE Media sits inside Penske Media Corporation and publishes its own flagship brands — SheKnows, Flow Space, StyleCaster, Soaps and BlogHer — alongside the Collective, which is the part independent publishers join. That is an unusual shape for an ad partner: the company selling your inventory also operates editorial sites in the same categories, so the sales team is pitching a single audience across owned brands and partner sites together.
SHE Media itself resists the label, describing the Collective as more than an ad network because membership also brings sponsored-campaign opportunities, BlogHer speaking slots and audience-growth support. For the purpose of this list the distinction does not matter: what is verifiable is which domains it is authorised to sell advertising for, and that is what appears below.
The Collective skews heavily toward one audience. If you are researching where a parenting or food blog goes after AdSense, this list is a better read of who actually qualifies than any requirements page, because it shows the sites that were accepted rather than the ones that applied.
Requirements
SHE Media publishes its approval bar, and it is stricter than the traffic number alone suggests:
- 50,000+ pageviews a month, though smaller sites are considered case by case
- Consistent publishing of original, human-written content, with any use of generative AI disclosed
- At least 30% of traffic from the United States
- The site must be at least 90 days old and brand safe
- A clean record with Google's ad products
- Exclusivity on display inventory — SHE Media manages the banner ads on both mobile and desktop, though affiliate links stay yours
Two practical notes for anyone applying: review takes three to four weeks, and a rejected site cannot reapply for six months unless it has grown enough to ask for an early look.
What publishers typically earn
SHE Media publishes no rate card, and reported RPMs vary widely by category. Parenting, food and home content — the Collective's core — earn toward the upper end of managed-network rates, while general lifestyle sits lower. Members consistently report that the outstream video unit carries the highest RPM of any placement, which matters when comparing offers: a network's headline figure usually assumes you run its full layout, video included.
How this list is built
Membership is established from public advertising records — the standardised files and tags that networks and publishers maintain so advertisers can confirm who is authorised to sell a site's inventory. Nothing here is self-reported by the site, and nothing is inferred from how a page looks.
Records are cleaned before they reach this list: duplicate entries for the same site are collapsed, placeholder and internal test entries are discarded rather than guessed at, and a site is listed once no matter how many times it appears upstream. A meaningful share of SHE Media's records name a partner without naming a website; those are counted as unverifiable and left out rather than filled in with a guess. See our methodology for what we check and what we deliberately leave out.
The honest caveat: authorisation records can lag reality slightly when a publisher leaves a network, which is why entries are re-checked over time and carry the date they were last confirmed.
Frequently asked questions
How many websites use SHE Media?
Our verified index holds roughly 1,750 SHE Media Collective publisher domains. That is smaller than Mediavine or Raptive by design: the Collective is curated around a specific audience rather than open to every niche. The exact figure is shown at the top of this page.
What are the requirements to join the SHE Media Collective?
SHE Media asks for 50,000+ pageviews a month, at least 30% US traffic, a site at least 90 days old, original human-written content, a clean record with Google ad products, and exclusivity on your display inventory. Smaller sites are reviewed case by case. Applications take three to four weeks, and a rejected site waits six months to reapply.
How do you know these sites use SHE Media?
Membership is established from public advertising records — the standardised files and tags used across the industry to confirm who is authorised to sell a site's ad inventory. It is not self-reported by the site, not scraped from a directory, and not estimated.
SHE Media or Mediavine — which should a parenting blog choose?
Mediavine asks for about 50,000 sessions and SHE Media for about 50,000 pageviews, so SHE Media is the easier bar in practice since pageviews exceed sessions on most sites. SHE Media adds sponsored campaigns and BlogHer opportunities aimed at a female audience; Mediavine is the stronger pure ad-management product across every niche. Publishers in women-focused categories often qualify for both.
Can I run SHE Media alongside another ad network?
Not for display. SHE Media requires exclusivity on banner inventory across mobile and desktop, because its rates with exchanges and direct advertisers are negotiated on that basis. Affiliate links and banners are the stated exception.
How often is this list updated?
It is rebuilt from the network’s published records and re-checked on a rolling basis. Each row carries the date it was last confirmed, and sites that leave are marked removed rather than quietly deleted.
