    Absolutely, if the directory is decent it will sell or make money, regardless of pr, its a nice looking one, good for the owner.

    Wow.... that is a very nice niche to have, and the way its set up is great :)

    If you ask me $400 was a steal ...

    Some Attorney's will pay upwards of $100 "per click"...
    so to ask a small review fee would be fine for this niche

    thx

    That was Serg's directory that he announced on DP a few months ago. Hes got a proper job as a web designer now so probably doesn't have time for it.

    More proof that niche directories are in demand and worth the money.

    Just PR is not a guide to decide price.
    Look at quality, content, traffic, design, revenue etc..

    Congrats to the seller. :)

    It proves nothing of the sort. That site was worth far more than $400 for the domain name and work the guy put in alone. I'd be devastated if I put a years hard work and design in to just get $400.

    Forget PR that counts for nothing in directories these days, what this example proved is how to lose money.

    If it has decent SERP, it's worth $400 for sure. So PR is one of factors,but not key factor.

    Congrats to the seller.

    Hard work no doubt, but a year's hard work looks a bit strange!
    # Established: Sun Jan 13 2008
    That's 3+ months, i guess!

    Loose money?
    # Monthly Revenue: 0
    Humm.... how can someone loose money, when the directory makes 0 revenue!

    # Uniques/Month: 300 - means 10 uniques a day!

    $400 is actually a good price, the potential is there for sure!:)

    I know flash designers that would charge $200 for that amazing map that Serg had on the homepage.

    Just shows how naive we can all be. I'm signing up at that forum because I for one would have given him $$$ for it as I'm a Lawyer myself. (Fingers crossed) :)
