Monetization of Facebook Apps

I know the developer of one of these top twenty apps. It's not important which one it is, but it generates about 500k pageviews a day, and each pageview monetizes at $0.10 to $0.25 CPM. If I take $0.20 as the average, it comes down to $100/day. Tha's $3000/mo, or $36K/year.
CBS's Moonves added a wrinkle: the publisher has digitized 17,000 titles. Of those, about two-thirds are currently available in print on-demand, downloadable audio, or e-book formats -- Amazon (AMZN) Kindle, Sony (SNE) Reader, Palm (PALM), Adobe (ADBE) Digital Editions, and Microsoft (MSFT) Reader.
ReplyDeleteWe tried to get some sales data out of Simon & Schuster, but they wouldn't offer any, or even a top-selling digital title. Simon & Schuster's digital efforts are being spearheaded by Elinor Hirschhorn, appointed "Chief Digital Officer" in February.
