Bubble? Don't know. I bet they attract very distinct (relative to most websites) and important segments. If I took at stab at it I'd say something like non-tech white employed females.
If they do have unique and/or focused segments, and enough of them, they can monetize it.
- sidek 16y agoFailblog is popular with some high school students.
- latch 16y agoYa, I wasn't thinking Failblog was popular amongst the employed-female crowd. Different property, different segment. As long as you have and can identify a specific audience, you're in good shape. It'd be interesting to get a breakdown lolcat's audience...maybe i'm wrong and it's a broad group which doesn't differentiate itself from a lot of web properties (male geeks).
- JacobAldridge 16y agoYeah, for what it's worth I tend to check out a few of their properties most days. I stopped with the lolcats when the ironic crowd were overrun with the 'oh-it's-a-cute-kittie' crowd, but I still check out Fail Blog, Ugliest Tattoos, and Failbook. I think you're right that focused segments is the key to the growth and success so far. http://failblog.org/ http://failblog.org/ http://ugliesttattoos.com/ http://ugliesttattoos.com/ http://failbook.com/ http://failbook.com/
