Directory on sale for 3.5 Million USD

    This is a directory news, so I thought this was the best category. Didn't know where else to put.

    Well, I saw a heavy duty Directory for sale. Well, heavy duty sale of a Directory would be a better phrase.

    Link here: http://www.imergeadvisors.com/internet-business-for-sale.html Look for Sale ID (10192)

    The asking price is 3.5 Millions... oppps .. With such an asking price, this sure is not a Panic sale for a directory :) after the google blitzkrieg..

    Can you guess which one could be the directory? "Sweden web hosting" ?

    so what's the difference between a multi-million dollar worth website and the directories we have here?

    Is it just a matter of number of links in them??

    It is not sold yet...

    If you talk abotu real Multi Mil Directroies, Business.com, dmoz are multi million directories..

    It is not just about Links, but natural and relevant links :)
    And how the business is run,,

    Just think, Adobe never bought to a link to have that PR10 :)
    Just my two cents
