The Top 50k Blogs Generated $500M in Ad Revenue in 2006
Written by Pablo Palatnik on August 6, 2007
A research study by the University of Texas and Chitika reports that the top 50k blogs generated an estimate of $500 million in ad revenue.
Key stats:
> The top 1% accounted for approximately 20% of the total revenue
> The top 5% accounted for approximately 50% of the total revenue
> The top 10% accounted for approximately 80% of the total revenue
> The top 15% accounted for approximately 90% of the total revenue
I guarantee this number might even double by the end of 2007 with thousands of more blogs entering the blogosphere and marketers becoming wiser about placing ads and adsense better CTR’s.
Other ways to make money from your blog besides contextual advertising are:
>Affiliate Text Links
>Shopping Feeds
**Make your ads on your blog as relevant as possible to your topic!
[update]: Google Adsense adding new text feature in ad that can help improve click through rates.
