As a European blogging network which has just re-signed to Glam, we are very pleased for them and hope they use the money to build their sales network further and get even better CPMs from advertisers! The market is tough at the moment so they have done very well to raise the money they have done.

Glam’s network sites are mostly crap IMHO, but they do know how to take care of their publishers.

That revenue and profit projection is WAY WAY OFF! I don’t see this as realistic at all. They are a low eCPM network. Sorry, but it’ll never happen. They are trying to cash out.

Congratulations to Glam the highest quality women’s network. I have been a part of Glam from the beginning and my experience continues to get better. This round of funding proves to the smaller bloggers like me that we will continue to be taken care of. Keep up the great work!!!
