How much wikipedia worth?
The only statistics to go by are Jimmy Wales (the founder of wikipedia) own personal estimations that he’s made in the past (interviews, articles, etc.). As of 2007, he estimated that Wikipedia was worth about $3 billion, and stated that he makes no money off of the non-profit Wikimedia foundation that he and Wikipedia are a part of. He also once wrote that his own net worth was less than $1 million.
Average website estimator would give you around 200,000$ for wikipedia worth. But, these numbers do not take in account the real value of wikipedia. The amount of information stored on wikipedia’s servers is huge. No one can really tell how much is wikipedia worth. Advertising on 25 pixels square on wikipedia’s pages will bring an income of 10M$ to the creator Jimmy Wales. The traffic is enormous, but still the creator prefers to leave free for non commercial use. Professionals estimate wikipedia’s worth as of 2009 about $3.5 billions u.s. dollars.
