Gold in Them Thar Blogs?
Not really.
Though Chitika (a blog website, natch) did produce the following astounding number: " we have estimated that $500 million has been generated within the top 50k blogs in 2006."
Ok, but check out how that breaks out: the top:
1% generated 20% of the revenue
5% generated 50% of the revenue
10% generated 80% of the revenue
15% generated 90% of the revenue.
In other words, the top 500 bloggers shared $100,000,000, around $200,000 apiece.
The bottom 85%, or 42,500 bloggers shared $50,000,000, or got about $1176 apiece.
So, depending on who you are, and how much time you're putting in with your blog... it better be a labor of love.
