Blog Valuation: How Much Are You Worth?

The Kirk Report had a link to a website the other day. The site, Leapfish, provides a quick estimate of the value a domain name might have if sold. For instance, You Tube comes in at over 9 million.

So I thought it might be interesting (read pretty funny) to see what some of the bloggers I read are worth.

Coming at number one (of course) is the man, the myth, the legend in his own mind Trader X with an estimated value of $3,542.00.

Second place goes to Trader Mike who clocks $240.00. I detect a bit of west coast bias here seeing how Mike comes out of Stanford.

Showing in third is Howard Lindzon who comes in at $125.00. Don't know if that is CDN or USD. If we give HL credit (or blame) for Wallstrip he pulls ahead of Mike with an additional $427.00 added.

In fourth is all around good guy Bill Rempel with $21.00. It has been confirmed that Bill's valuation is actually understated by a factor of 100 as a result of a vast right AND left wing value investor conspiracy due to his many technical analysis posts.

Bringing up the rear is the lovable miscreant Tapeworm at Tale of The Tape who is worth an astonishing $19.00, and that is USD. Rumor has it that Mr. Worm is a former Jerry's kid and that next year's telethon will be featuring him in an attempt to get that valuation up.

An honorable mention goes to the Trading Goddess who is a new blogger. While her valuation appears to be quite low at $12.00, one look at her blog (and her picture) convinces this reader that this is a classic market mis-pricing.

Please note: Due to observed statistical anomalies Ugly at Ugly Chart was disqualified. While his valuation was listed at $49,532.00 the judges deemed such a figure to be a result of untoward manipulation. When asked for their rationale the judges issued this terse statement: "Nothing that Ugly could be worth so much."
