Website with 1 Million Visitors a Month = $$Revenue?

How much money does a website make that is getting 1 million visitors a month?

Is it $5,000 a month, $15,000, $40,000, or more?

Is it an affiliate site? Is it an ecommerce site? Is it a SaaS business? What niche is the site in?

I just hit publish on an article that does a deep dive into this very question. So, how much money does a website make that is getting a million visitors a month?

We even take a look at Own The Yard (my site that I recently sold for over $250,000), and determine how many articles I would have needed to publish to hit 1,000,000 visitors a month!
