As the end of 2006 approaches, it’s clear that MySpace has spawned a cottage industry of sites supplying add-on content or media sharing services for profile owners. Many of these sites have seen phenomenal growth this year while at the same time questions loom around how to monetize. It’s interesting now to look at the top sites to see how they’re embracing such questions because for them this market is becoming big business.

This post is a look at the top add-on sites using a simple metric – reach. This is our measure of the number of profiles containing content from any of nearly 300 sites we’re tracking. We’re going to eliminate MySpace’s own widgets because we’re only interested in third party sites here. If we had included MySpace then their MySpace music player would certainly be in this list. We’re also going to look at sites as aggregate rather than individual widgets.
