The Virtual Handshake Blog took notes at a recent iBreakfast meetup, where MySpace's senior vice president of marketing and content Shawn Gold revealed (I suspect informally) some recent stats. I've placed a selection of these stats next to data presented earlier this year by Steve Rubel.
MySpace Stats
June, 2006 [source] March, 2006 [source]
84m registered users
2m new registered users per week (size of Houston)
48m uniques/month
61m registered users
220,000 new registrants daily [1.5m per week]
21m unique visitors [per month?]
2nd-most popular site for content consumption as defined by page views 2nd largest destination on the web, as defined by page views
29,000 indie film profiles
1.8m music profiles
87m stories in the database
They have 1.4 million registered bands
350,000 band blogs
Myspace reaches 51% of 13-17 year olds online (which is 85% of all 13-17 year olds)
79% of the site is 18+
25M users are 30+
The primary age demo is 16-34
Average page is visited 30 times a day. --
25,000 volunteers police school site --

Obviously some steady growth and solid numbers here. But when will MySpace reach its peak?
