The Market for Online Finance Portals
Quick stat on the market size, should Google choose to enter with Google Finance:
December 2005 - Unique Audience (Source: Nielsen/NetRatings via Crain's):
- Yahoo Finance - 10.6mm
- MSN Money - 9.8mm
- AOL Finance - 8.1mm
- Forbes.com - 8.1mm
- Dow Jones Online - 7.5mm (inc. MarketWatch and WSJ)
Not bad numbers...and although I really like aspects of Yahoo's site, I find that in general this is a poorly served market (ideas brewing...) - Ed

I normally access content on Yahoo, although admittedly not much of it. And I never pay much, if any, attention to the ads, which is why I've only traded the stock.
