The site, located at http://kimkardashian.celebuzz.com, is published by BUZZMEDIA. Since its launch in 2008, Kardashian’s site has seen tremendous month over month growth solidifying its #1 status with 24 million page views and more than 1.5 million unique users monthly.
Kardashian will be recognized with the “Digital Supernova Award” on Friday, June 25 at an event co-hosted by Sony Ericsson and BUZZMEDIA in Los Angeles.
“Kim was among the first celebrities to embrace blogging and direct communication with fans on the Internet through a dedicated destination, when she launched her site with BUZZMEDIA in 2008,” said Tyler Goldman, CEO of BUZZMEDIA. “She truly is a digital trailblazer and it’s no surprise that the numbers reflect her consistent innovation and effort.”
