    It depends, if you are selling a lot of 'Featured' links then maybe yes but if you are struggling to sell any then there is know point.

    I'm guessing he has problems to get real life visitors to his site (bots doesn't count)
    but I'm sure no one will pay him for listing in just another dead on arrival spam
    infested directory.

    How do I know that?
    Well, 1279 listed sites in 3 years says that he's having 1 submission per day on average.
    makes my conclusion easy based on simple math.
    :)

    The price of any link depends on the quality of the page, the content and the authority of the domain it is being placed. All these things have to be taken into account before you can ask for a decent price, and you would also have to work on increasing the PR of your site.

    Thanks.

    I can`t just mass accept regular sites others spam directory do that, also other REAL directories takes 6 months to start reviewing a regular site because yes, it`s free and maybe site be down after 1 month of submit.
    I get Featured links and I review them within 48 hours of submit, if it got accepted will be lists if not it will not be lists and refund will be made.
    Your math is fked up mate ;)

    OK, thanks.

    I would put it at $4.99 for regular and $19.99 for featured

    Your featured price is too low compared to the regular listing price.

    I like the way you make the the math calculation. your point is valid. Hi EvowRZ, PR2 site is not value enough for higher price, I would suggest to maintain the price, or lower down the price, so that much more user will make listing on your site. Go for volume, you could earn much more

    Hi,

    I believe you have a few issues to resolve before considering the prices:

    1. Your pending links: 1696 is way too high. For me, I wouldn't pay for my links to sit in a pending queue. This could be offset by added a stat for new listings per day.

    2. You have empty categories. I would recommend hiding empty categories. Personally, when I see empty categories, it tells me the directory is dead...

    Your stats look good, I believe addressing the above two issue will have a positive impact on your directory.

    It`s a lifetime not a 1 day listing.

    The pending links are free links, paid links are reviews within 48h, you will not be in pending that long ether you get accepted or not. :)
    Can you tell me how to hide empty categories since I can`t find option to do that, it would be helpful.

    Thanks for the feedback. +1

    Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with your software.
