Despite rumors, twitter is not for sale. But how much would twitter worth if it were for sale?
Comoany's like Google and Microsoft were rumored to be wanting to buy Twitter. Although Twitter micro-blogging service has plenty of users to monetize it doesnt have a real business plan. On last week Twitter selling rumors added Apple on the list until the co-founder of Twitter Biz Stone said to Barbara Walters on The View that Twitter wasnt for sale.
Stone also appeared with Twitter's other co-founder, Evan Williams, on Barbara Walters' daytime talk show, The View.
But how much should a company pay for Twitter to buy it?. In other big website with huge amounts of users like Twitter they got: YouTube obtained from Google $16 per user, News Corp bought MySpace for $21 per user. Bebo was sold to AOL for $35 per user. So considering that Twitter has 19 million users it could be bought for a sume of $304 million to $665 million dollars. Until now Twitter investors have put about $55 million in the business, according to PaidContent, wich pointed out that those lower-range members would disappoint the venture capitalists who typically look for a 10-fold return.
But many internet marketers consider that Twitter should wait and continue work in growing up its user base and one important way of doing this is by getting more and more developers arround a richier Twitter API would considerably allow twitter to get more press. Wharton legal studies and business ethics professor Kevin Werbach: "Twitter is right to focus on scaling its service before emphasizing revenues. It has a big opportunity, but only if it can keep and grow a big community of users and developers."
So we will have to wait until we know an exactly sume of how much does twitter worth, but we can be certantly sure that when the time comes, all the investors that put their money on twitter will get a good return.
Many people wonders how much does twitter worth?, how does twitter earn money? or what twitter really is?. If you ever had this doubts about twitter business model you have come to the right place.
