    Hi:
    I have a domain name since 2001.
    This domain or site was about web design and before I closed it reached like 2000 unique hits a day.
    I closed this site almost 2 years ago.

    Right now I still own the domain and I realize that it can have more value than 2 years ago.

    When I closed the site I password it, so Google inmediately deleted the site from the search engine because the googlebot couldn't reach the site. So the site is not indexed neither has PR.
    Now if you make a search on Google for the domain name (imagine abcde.com) it gets like 4000 results! I mean I have many backlinks of sites, many of them are PR7, PR6....

    I have removed the password yesterday, deleted all the old contents and have an index page with text on it.
    In 10 hours I have received like 100 unique hits, so I still have visits of that backlinks.

    So do you think is a good idea to create a directory using that domain name based on the possible future PR it will have because the thousand of backlinks?
