Techmeme worth $528,000 a year in Blog Advertising?
Categories: Social Media, Web AnalyticsPosted on September 25th, 2006Gabe 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.
