    GEO-LOCATION-BASED BECOMING A BIG MONEY PHRASE

    GOWALLA VALUATION PUSHES UNIQUE VISITOR BOUNDARYTwo transactions this week highlight varying perspectives on user-driven Web 2.0 valuations the Series B financingof geo-location-based, gaming-oriented social network Gowalla; and the acquisition of Friendster, the third largestsocial network by number of users, by Malaysian payments company, MOL Global. Some of the highlights include:

    Gowalla sets a new high: Gowalla raised $8.5 million in a Series B financing this past week. With just 50,000 userson the location-based social network (driven by the companys Facebook game application, PackRat, launched in2008), the most recent raise valued the company at $28.4 million, implying a per unique visitor value of $568 wellabove the previous high we recorded in May 2008 for Plaxo at $200/user.

    Geo-location services are hot: Gowallas $568 UV valuation, we believe, is largely based on the companys

    positioning in the very popular geo-location application sector. Some of the other metrics we have collected in thespace include Foursquare valued in September at $40/user and Poynt (by Multiplied Media, a publicly tradedcompany) currently valued at $16/user. Our expectation is that UV valuations in this space will increase as morecompanies execute funding raises.

    There is a big difference between first and third place: Friendster s user base (estimated at 50-150 million users,depending on the source) ranks it third among social networking sites Facebook leads the way with 300+ millionusers. However, boasting millions of users does not guarantee a windfall valuation as Friendster s $0.67/user to$2.00/user (depending on which total user number is used) valuation illustrates. We postulate that building a criticalmass number of users only helps valuation if your application is a leader in its category and therefore represents thede facto go to option for users as is the case with Facebook, which was last valued at $32/user.
