Blogonomics: Gawker's Payroll
Jay Rayner has a profile of Nick Denton in the UK Observer, in which we find some interesting numbers:
...In January, New York-based Gawker Media racked up nearly a quarter of a billion page views...
The monthly salary is an advance against a payment of $7.50 per 1,000 page views...
Noah Robischon, the managing editor, describes the editorial spend for January, and while it's keeping to six figures it's a long way beyond $100,000.
