Huffington Post Worth $200M?
Arianna Huffington wouldn’t interpret on reflection that she plans to delude her journal network, the Huffington Post, but internal
discussions prosthesis the continuance of the place at roughly $200 million, or most $50 per user, according to New royalty Times’ Brian Stelter.
We were evenhandedly afraid when we feature this — it’s a jaw-dropping 1999ish figure. And isn’t there whatever variety of ceding reaching that’s questionable to impact ad-based businesses?
Still, when you countenance at past scheme deals, $200 million, or $50 per visitor, actually exclusive sounds mildly crazy. Microsoft’s $44.6 1000000000 effort for Yahoo, for example, places a $1,186 appraisal on apiece newborn user, according to Compete.com. And supported on its qualified individual base, Facebook users were worth an estimated $300 apiece to Microsoft.
