It was very flattering to be considered in the same group as Shrinkette, MedPundit, and KevinMD - all 4 of our blogs were mentioned by the MSSPNexus Blog as "big dogs." Hospital Impact apparently is worth $15,000 or so. Find out how much your blog is worth here.

Using the knowledge that AOL paid between $25 - 40MM for Weblogs, Inc, we have our first benchmark of how much a blog is worth to traditional media companies. True - Weblogs, Inc is more than just a bunch of linked blogs - it's also an infrastructure as well as a brand. AOL ended up paying $560 - $900 per link source (using Technorati). That's obviously not gonna hold for us small-time niche bloggers, but it is the 1st data point (of hopefully many to come) of how much blogs are worth.

Also, check out this self-reported database of # of visitors & monthly Adsense revenue. This guy from Malaysia makes $6,000/year from his blog.

UPDATE: by the way, has anyone else seen their traffic increase dramatically since google launched their blogsearch tool?
