Popping in to say hi to those of you still subscribed by RSS.

Thought you might find this interesting:

Lots of talk about YourHub's results after ten months.

Average of 309,000 page views and more than 45,000 unique visitors per month. More than $5 million in annual revenues.

I know that we're not there on revenues yet, and our site has a different focus, but in its third month,the new TexasGigs did:

• 157,019 visits
• 977,928 pageviews

We're on pace to double those numbers in April, largely thanks to our Dallas Mavericks promotion, which launched this week. Will be interesting to see how many stick around.

We have about 7 FTE's. (Although we are all doing a lot of work on things other than the existing site.) Our monthly operating expenses are around $7,000. If we were actually paying salaries, that would be more like $50k.

I'll give more details next week on my other blog.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but doesn't $5 million for 3,708,000 page views (309,000 page views per month x 12 months) work out to a mighty high revenue per page?

[Mike Orren]

Yes, it does. That's why I'd like some more info on those revenues.

My GUESSES are either:

1. They're selling combo print-web buys and counting a disproportionate amount to the web.

2. They're selling big packages to retailers who don't understand web and aren't demanding CPM or CPC deals.

Would be interesting to see that breakdown.
