Techmeme worth $528,000 a year in Blog Advertising?

Categories: Social Media, Web AnalyticsPosted on September 25th, 2006

Gabe just announced his pricing model for Techmeme Blog advertising and pricing model.
Simple Math reveals the following potential revenue stream:

  • $4500 +
  • $3,500 +
  • $3,000
  • = $11,000 a month
    • X 4 Sites (Ballbug, Smirch, Meme, Techmeme when they get rolling)
    • = $44,000 a month (when all engines are firing)
      • X 12 months
      • = $528,000 a year.

Hot dang Gabe, way to go, you deserve every cent of it.

  • Question for you: do you think the rates will go up in the coming months?
  • ohhh, potential revenue stream - what a concept!
  • Fraser, Yes of course it will. I also expect many others to clone it.

    I also expect Google to create a new "blogSense" tool that lets users advertsise using blogs, rather than just keywords.

    David, yes novel idea.
  • Interesting #s. The only thing I disagree with is the amount of traffic and ability to place same priced ads on non-techmeme pages.

    Anyways, gabe still rules!

    I talked to Gabe about this briefly last night. These numbers indeed are a 'best case scenario' hence why I put emphasis on the term potential.

    Nothing is impossible, I still believe the web market is going to continue to go up for some time before coming back down.
