$20,000 For a Link (Per Day)
 

Putting your sponsored link on the Wordpress.org homepage will cost you $20,000 per day (also available are $100,000 per week, or $250,000 per month). While according to AdBrite the Wordpress front-page only gets 16,000 page views per day from over 10,000 visitors, it has a PageRank of 9.

overpriced.

I read about this yesterday.
Don`t know what the WP guys are thinking really. $20k will get your link on a LOT of places, for a LOT more hits.
I remember they got in trouble with Google some time ago for hosting a bunch of SE spam pages for some people. (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=0...196220&tid=217)
Looks like they are really desperate for money.

You're better off buying 1000's of PR 6 links.

way overpriced lol

waaaaay overpriced

thats just crazy

20k for just 1 day? they are insane.

lol. what a waste of money.

Thats insane.

What? I just bought 3 links. Something wrong?

Insane :pimp

I wouldn't advertise on their site if it was $1 for a year and I got 5000000 clicks.

(1 unique per day, 630 pageviews) - Even a better deal.

20 000 USD /day :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

adbrite = sucks

Cool, I'll take 2 months :winkwink:

Days: 1
Avg total clicks: 334
Avg CPC: $59.89

Wow. LOL. Can't wait to see who does it. That would be a nice donation to a great open source project though.

ye right , fuck them!

Well it is a PR9, but you could get those cheaper I bet.

Wishful thinking

1 Day on a PR9 site isn't likely to increase your SE ranking is it?

You can be a link on Wordpress's page doesn't pass on an ounce of PR after they got in trouble with Google.. it might help you out on Yahoo or MSN, but who cares.

fuck!!! i hope i can cancel my check

thats just in-fucking-sane

I want a link on google's main page.

PR 11 !!!!!!!!!!!

Milk it, while it's hot

thats bullshit prices!

if you happen to catch the day that the spiders hit HARD maybe.

wow wayyyyyy too much!

Most advertisers that use adbrite are living in a dream world. I liken it to the idiots that try to sell some shitty domain on ebay for 5 million dollars.

As an advertiser you have to go in and edit your dollar figures so the ppc is in line. I scoured adbrite and could only find a few people that knew how to price there shit right.

Have you guys ever seen those "surprise" domain auctions on Ebay ? Some guy tried selling 75 domains and wouldn't give out the URLs, he only said that a few of them were "high value". You wouldn't find out what you bought until you won the auction. PPL actually bid on it, don't know how much he got though.


Anyway, about the actual subject at hand, 20K per day on wordpress.org sounds like a get rich quich scheme to me. Loses a lot of credibility in my book...
I think a link on Yahoo.com for 20K per day is fair..but not on that damn site.

are they stupid

wow thats freaking insane for just a tekst link with those stats hehe :)

hahah thats funny

:drinkup

you can buy for that money 1000 links on my sites :winkwink:

now that's just fuckin stupid

well adbright is wrong the have abou 1 milion viws/day but that also doesent give them right for that money :)

$20K would get one all the ad space on the CANNABIS.COM homepage for an entire month ... ~ 5,000 visitors view the CANNABIS.COM homepage daily.

Wordpress must be smoking some of what I'm smoking :stoned :1orglaugh
