Pete Cashmore: The $95 Million Guy

pete$6 Million, estimated income per month is thunderous for a blog company called Mashable! I heard and read people blog to earn between $100 – $500 a month, but that much of Mashable craze me up (yes, I’m just a week old in blog industry).

Pete Cashmore, the 19 year old Scottish boy eight years ago started it on his bedroom. What a simple and humble beginning, that urged me to follow him in twitter and subscribe in facebook, lol. Now he is currently included in Time Magazine’s 30 under 30 and was listed on it’s 2012 100 Most Influential People.

He is a driver, a pusher for us aspiring blogger to continue and focus on what we believe why we start writing then. His company site is attracting 25 million visits average a month, while mine has only 64 views in 8 days, lol. We called it Traffic (please check this great post about traffic), that’s Mr. Cashmore’s and other high profile blogs doing in funneling cashflow to their companies.

It’s one of the proofs that we can make it big … very huge here in blogging. This medium offer and show us the opportunity. Pete’s own driver to blog? He wanted to be part of the conversation about technological change. He got it in Mashable after 8 years and made him currently the $95 Million Guy!

And what drives you now?
