Somehow, given the fact I don't find any 3rd party apps on Facebook useful, this makes me sad. - Chris White
I'm pretty sure it's not accurate. Maybe 33 apps make this much, but not 33% (unless it's 33% of the top 100, or something like that). - Paul Buchheit
From talking to a lot of Facebook app developers, I am fairly confident that this is not accurate, unless among these 33%, part of the profit is made outside of Facebook. - Stephan Osmont
doubt there is even 33 that can claim revenues that high let alone profit. - tonx
33 percent *reported* profits of *up to* $500K/month. My guess is that there's one making that much and then a bunch of others in the *reported up to* category. - Keith Pelczarski
"up to" is one of those Jedi Mind Trick phrases... - Karim
does facebook mean bullsh*t in some other language? - Rob Reed
The other 67 percent make more than $500,000 per month ;) - Amit Patel
you shouldn't believe that number at all. The data is from surveys and probably misquoted on top of that. Top ten apps don't make those numbers. - paulm
I take it to mean that about one third of Facebook app makers reported profits, each between $1 and $500,000 per month. - Gabe Schaffer
A friend of mine is monetizing his apps at a $4 CPM.. that will require an aweful lot of traffic to generate $500k/month.. - Alex Barbara
$4 CPM is actually really good -- most social network stuff is way les than that. - Paul Buchheit
