Came across a site that gives a value to websites according to ad revenue/traffic.

Dave's ESL Cafe is pretty huge.
I wonder how the lost productivity and brain cells of posters on www.eslcafe.com/forums/korea would be valued.

Considering Dave was rumored to have been offered 1 million for it a while back, I don't know what to say...

Mindboggling when you think how much revenue this site is throwing out the window by not updating the forum and inserting adsense ads (that the new forum software allows).

I would really hate ads. I would have expected a higher amount.

I would stop visiting this site, if I had the will-power. I would like another coffee now.

And the mods on this site still work for free? I wonder how much of that worth comes from the Korean forums. The Korean job ad board must be by far the biggest revenue generator.

This result is not even close to true...

But Dave's is huge and influential I believe.

I cant remember for how many time, I was sitting and talking with friends, when some obvious Dave's topics were put on the table... Laughing Laughing sometimes I couldnt resist guessing who they might be on Dave's.

It has gone up a bit: eslcafe.com Estimated Worth $256135.1 USD


But this is only ad revenue, not the job boards which are worth much much more.

The stats for Facebook are obscene.

$75 per ad, 10 ads a day per board, 3 boards = $821,250 gross revenue per annum. This is a very conservative estimate--I'm sure the boards average more than 10 ads a day.

Not bad, Dave. Not bad.
