Same as websites - but you track number of people subscribed and the key metric is how many people open it. CPMs are a little higher for newsletters than for websites with the same number of readers I've found (as an advertiser, not a content producer).

#6quick math: $25m in revenues, 2.5m subscribers, which makes it $50 annual revenue per subscriber.
So I am wondering is $50/year/user a high or low figure in web advertising? I am suspecting it's a high one because of the audience (hip, young and rich urban women)

Not sure I follow your math. Wouldn't that be $10 in annual revenue per subscriber ($10 * 2.5mil = $25mil)?
