Since you obviously wanted to win, sorry you got cheated, but at this point I think the only people who pay any attention to the Webbys are those who've paid to be "nominated."
- wpietri 14y agoDoes anybody know how much the Webby folks charge for a nomination?
- ericd 14y agoHaha I don't think you can buy a full nom, but if memory serves they charge either 200 or 300 as an entry fee per category. I think they get ballpark 10k entries for roughly 100 categories, and make 5*category# noms.
- ricardobeat 14y agoThey make $2 million from entries only?
- unfletch 14y agoSlate thinks so, as of 2008: Even after allowing for discounted entry fees, the back of the envelope says the Webbys could be taking in more than $2 million from its contestants. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/press_box/2008/04/what_youve_not_been_honored_by_the_webbys.html http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/press_box/20...
- ericd 14y agoThere might be sponsorships, and I think they also sell additional merch, and maybe tickets to the awards event. It's probably not cheap to organize.
