Budgeting, saving, debt payoff, credit cards, investing, retirement, taxes, insurance, frugal living, side income. We currently track 810 Personal Finance sites, and this page lists them with the advertising networks each one runs. The most common partner in this category is Mediavine, which appears on 186 of them — a useful signal of who actually buys this kind of inventory, as opposed to who says they do.
Publishers use this page to see which networks accept sites like theirs and at what authority level; buyers use it to size the inventory available in a category before approaching anyone. The table is ordered by authority, so the strongest sites in Personal Finance are at the top. Showing only sites confirmed by both parties — the toggle under “What the verification marks mean” shows all 810.
Every listing starts as a network naming the site in its own published seller list. We then read the site’s ads.txt — the file where a publisher names the ad companies it authorises — to see whether the site names the network back.
By share of sites in this category, Mediavine is the most common partner — it appears on 186 of the 810 Personal Finance sites we track. "Best" depends on your traffic and authority, so compare the tier and median authority on each network's page before applying.
Most publishers carry more than one. The "Also uses" column in the table shows the stack on each individual site, which is a more reliable answer for your own situation than an average.
The average site in Personal Finance scores 25. Each network page shows its own median, which is the more useful number: it tells you the level of site that network actually accepts, rather than the level it advertises.
Each site is classified from the text of its own homepage, into one category. A site that spans two categories is filed under the dominant one, so a recipe blog that also reviews cookware appears here rather than in Shopping.
