Did you know that if you read Marketing Pilgrim, you are 2.4 times more likely to be an “affluent American” earning over $100,000 a year?
In other words–for the benefit of marketers–buying advertising on Marketing Pilgrim will help you reach a highly valued segment of web users.
Compete.com has just named Marketing Pilgrim as one of the top sites to “Find Affluent Internet Users.” What does that mean?
These sites, although usually under-leveraged by ad networks and underused by media buyers, reach valuable niche audiences and can be efficiently and effectively used by creative brand advertisers to achieve success. Among the top torso websites that accept advertising and whose audience is overrepresented by affluent Americans are:
So, thanks to all our hard working writers, and thanks to all of our highly valued readers. OK, so you may not feel you fall into the category of “affluent” but in our book, you’re each worth a million dollars!
Oh, and yes, we have some ads slots available to anyone interested!

@Jaan - I guess you can be affluent AND naive about SEO.

Picking niche is a crucial thing of a blog developing and I think Marketingpilgrim is an example which has passed this step successfully. Keep up the good work.

If Compete.com says I’m affluent, then who am I to argue. Congrats, Andy, on receiving that recognition.

Conversely, I’d be interested to hear where you’re supposed to go if you want to find the poorest people on the web. Nobody ever talks about that.

Oh my god, I didn’t know that I’m affluent. Sorry, but despite this fact, i don’t intend buying your ads space, but i can tell about you people who are searching for your kind of resources.

Congratulations Andy and the team! This recognition is a serious pat on the back for a job well done. Keep up the good work!

Andy does this mean if I keep reading here I’m 2.4 times more likely to become an affluent American?
You know, I do think there’s a direct correlation between my net worth and the amount of Marketing Pilgrim posts I read. I can feel my bank account growing as we speak.
Congrats on being mentioned as a great place to advertise.
