Do you have the fills to pay the bills?

Fill rate is a crucial metric for publishers, who are constantly tracking all the factors that affect it. But which factors matter the most—ad quality? Floor levels? This quick survey aims to find out.

Keep in mind we are talking about combined direct and indirect (programmatic) display fill except where mentioned. We require no personally identifying information, but you are welcome to leave your email if you'd like to follow up or offer additional insight.

This survey is meant for publishers only—digital media companies that primarily monetize owned and operated media.

We will use this survey to inform an upcoming playbook—keep following AdMonsters!
