The Website Autopsy

Blogging Titan research series

How real websites make money, priced from what they publish: income reports, ads.txt files, programme terms and sale listings.

The standard for this series. We only use figures a site or company has published, name the page and the date we read it, and keep estimates out of the evidence. Where a number is ours, such as an average across reports, the working is on the page.
