    3) Has some purpose or aim
    4) Comments (whether they are moderated well)

    Fresh content? Do you go by date alone or frequency?

    Not just affiliate links
    Not a mfa
    Not a poker type of store hidden inside
    Something of value and content
    No .exe downloadables

    My criteria is:

    Atleast 4 months old. - Most fade out b4 than.
    SOME PR - this means they've also been around a bit.
    Update Activity - ATLEAST once a week?
    Then I look at the posts and avg post length.

    Hope this helps
