    Site gets at an average 5 regular ($19.99 each) and 2 sponsored listing ($29.99 each) per month => $159.93/month

    10 footer sitewide links for $14.99/month sold at DP. => 149.90
    6 header sitewide links for $19.99/month sold at DP. => 119.94

    So total site makes around $429.77

    Buyer will be given DP ids of the buyers, to contact in case he wants to renew the subscription.

    Why am I selling:
    Somebody keeps hacking this site and I have to restore it everytime from my backup (I take backup after every submission) :(. So I need to update the script but I don't have that much time to do so.

    This is an auction. Starting bid is $1000. Minimum bid increment is $100. I reserve the right to not sell this at all if the price is not right. I will post the reserve soon.

    If you have some specific questions, ask them but don't just post "send me more info", because I will not be responding to them.

    Thank you.

    in this case as the site requires daily attention and daily database restoration, i will buy it for 500 USD. as far as monthly links are concerned, those cant be counted as permanent links. i know that your starting bid is 1K USD but if i count my time and all, it will cost me even more than that.

    I am selling it because I am having trouble maintaining it, but the buyer can always upgrade the directory scrip (upgrade for SiteSift script is available, I installed it when it was first releasted without ever patching it), which I am lazy at. :D

    Thank you for the offer but sorry, I am not taking any offers below $1000.

    Edit: Just to update you, the site was PR6 before. In recent PR update it went back to PR5. This PR5 is very strong and can be easily made PR6 by some more advertising. Yahoo shows more than 24,500 backlinks. Even google shows more than 950 backlinks.

    Thank you

    For my own sites, yes the links will remain for atleast 6 months. Can be kept after that on a link exchange basis.

    Auction will end in 3 days after the first post. There seems to be some problem with SS script (I have the first version, it has been patched now).

    I am using very old verison of SS script because I have changed to the script to add 6 links (see the submit page for example). Now if I upgrade, I need to do some coding again.

    Somebody is just deleteding my categories, I don't know how he is able to do so. :( But only the categories, not the links. Its happening twice a month from last two months.

    Why is it so high for a site that's constantly hacked? Is it convertable to PHPLD?

    Those header and footer links are there for around last 6 months or so. Site gets around 3000 visitors per month. I will not install any script, I will transfer the site as it is. As the script I used currently is modified to add extra links.
