I came across an interesting post while on The Urethane Blog (what can I say, I like to keep up on the Urethane industry) to an analysis done by 24/7 Wall St. Blog of the 25 most valuable blogs in terms of operating profits and revenue. Value is measured by a variety of data including public sources such as Alexa, Quantcast, Compete, and comScore, estimated CPMs (cost per thousand impressions), and multiples of revenue and operating income.
A more detailed valuation explanation can be found in the link above but what I found most interesting is the sheer variety of the Top 25. From the gossip mongering of Perez Hilton to mega-gamer blog Destructoid to the battlefield of online partisan political leanings of Drudge Report & Huffington Post to the financial content aggregation site Seeking Alpha, there is something for everyone on this list. And who knew they could make so much money?!
