What does that translate to in ad revenues?
- mrkurt 16y agoAbout $3.50.
- jpeterson 16y agoWow, this comment would've been downvoted to oblivion in the old days. What does this mean?
- steveklabnik 16y agoI took it as satire on the whole 'Reddit got bought by a giant megaconglomerate yet still had to beg their userbase for money to keep going, and their site is still slow as a dog' fiasco. Then again, about two days ago the Inbox stopped taking 2+ minutes to load, so...
- SkyMarshal 16y agoSame. The subtext says more than the words do.
- jw84 16y agoNo, because people would get it's a South Park reference.
- e1ven 16y agoI'd hate to thinking that our dialog has downgraded to memes and TV show references. Regardless of appropriateness, it doesn't add information or opinion, it's just noise.
- jw84 16y agoHow's being an elitist prick working out for you at parties?
- foljs 16y agoWow, there, Allan Bloom. As if a thread on Hacker News (and, specifically, single comment on that thread) is representative of all dialog. And it might not add "information or opinion", but it's not "just noise", it's what we hip people call A JOKE. And that it's valuable on it's own merits.
- zachallaun 16y agoThis is clearly simplified, but nevertheless... [deleted] [edit] Info from comments demonstrates these results, though simplified, to be incredibly optimistic. Assuming a CPM of $1.00 and taking into account the ratio of paid advertisement to Reddit advertisement, the Monthly Revenue number would dip significantly to $100,000.
- OmarIsmail 16y agoIt seems that CPMs are more in the $0.50-1.00 range[1]. Which still translates into a very nice chunk of change and that's not counting other initiatives such as reddit gold.

- clint 16y agoI have no idea but judging from the amount of real ads I see on Reddit, I'd guess they make way more money from Gold than from display ads at the moment.
- klbarry 16y agoKeep in mind 90% of the ads right now are just games or reddit ads (keep refreshing the page). Not mention a good percentage of their users use adblock and are extemely anti-commercial. I think they are making significantly, significantly less.
- staunch 16y agoNo site like Reddit can fill 1 billion impressions at $2 eCPM. Closer to $0.25 I'd bet.
- blhack 16y agoI've run the "sponsored link" ads before, and it's usually $0.40-0.70 CPM.
