I found this really cool tool a while ago - How Much Is My Blog Worth?
Just for fun, I thought I would test a few health blogs and see how we are all doing! Unfortunately the Energise Blog is worth $0.00 - but undeterred I was sure that someone out there must be doing something right - and here are my findings:
- Diet-Blog: well done Jim! Your blog is worth a whopping $120,247!
- Livin La Vida Low Carb: measures up at $40,082
- Karen Knowler Living in the Raw: Not bad Karen - your blog is worth $3,951.78!
- Shockingly Diet Girl, like me, is worth zip!
See how much your blog is worth!
UPDATE: The Energise blog is now worth a staggering $11,855.34!

120k huh? Maybe I should sell and retire on the profits.
Seriously though… how long is a piece of string? A bit of fun I guess… However all the so-called “blog networks” have turned the thing into a business enterprise - and at the same time have (IMO) lowered the signal-to-noise ratio. Most of them are just filled with…. filler…
Keep blogging Ross…

Hi Jim
Yep it certainly is a growing problem. The more people blogging, the better it is for all of us I think. But the way in which there is now such a low barrier to entry when monetizing blogs (with adsense, affiliate schemes etc) - it means that people are thinking about the money before the blog which can only lead to one thing - very poor content.
Although they blog specifically about making blogging a profession - the guys at http://www.performancing.com have got it spot on: blog passionately about something you are passionate about and you will not have to worry about money or visitors - if you are genuine, both will flow.
Anyway, we digress a little! Glad to see things are still on top form at diet-blog - have a great week!
Ross
p.s. cheers - I certainly do intent to keep on blogging!
