Wordle Sells! + 255 Million Visitors a Day + 28 Niche Sites for Sale

Did Wordle Make a Good Decision? How much does it cost to run a site with 255 million visitors a day? And 28 niche sites currently for sale.

Today's Email Sponsored by:

A couple of weeks ago, I conjectured that Wordle (the word game that has taken the world by storm) could be making over $10,000 a day from display ads...if they put ads on their site.

Here's what I said at the time, "Let's say the site is getting 2 million pageviews a day (it could be much more by now).

The RPM is probably going to be on the lower end...perhaps $5 to $8.

That's still potentially $10,000 to $16,000....PER DAY!"

Well, the founder of Wordle just sold to the New York Times earlier this week for "low 7-figures".

So, with a sale price of likely $2 to $3 million, did the creator Wordle make a good choice?

On one hand, he potentially could be making $10,000 a day! And if that holds up for a few months, the business would be worth MUCH more. On the other hand, Wordle has the strong potential to be a fad that dies off in a couple of months.

Either way, I think the entire story is motivating to consider that small websites or other online ideas have the potential to make a lot of money quickly...so what's your next big idea?

How Much Money Does Wikipedia "Make"?

Wikipedia is the 7th most visited website in the world. With over 255 million visitors a DAY, it's no small operation.

However, as you likely know, Wikipedia is a not-for-profit business and has no ads on it's website.

So, how does it make money? And how much money does it make each year?

We answer these two questions and dive into the interesting business that Wikipedia is in our latest post.
