This Wired article talks about Nick Denton (Gizmodo founder) and his blogging site business model:
"Denton doesn't advertise or market his blogs. "Weblogs are the most meritocratic form of media the world has ever seen," he says. "If they're terrific, they can have pretty dramatic growth rates." To wit: Gizmodo jumped from 38,000 pageviews last August to 232,000 in January, and it's already making a little money. Launch 20 or 30 such sites, and you start to have some real income."
A good read as blogging is going become a model for revenue generation in niche markets.
