    I am receiving some requests from people about pricing for the "partner sites" on my directory at www.GamersCommunity.net

    What is a fair price to charge? Should I do monthly or pay onces for lifetime?

    I think monthly is better than life time because most of webmasters looking to participate as partner till good PR.

    and after that they will charge to other and then they would not pay you.

    so monthly is better because i will be little amount and anyone can pay easily and after some month if he will think that now dont need to pay then you can remove his links from your webpage after some warning emails.

    It will increase your business too due to little piece of amount :)

    Thanks

    How much I charge for partner links if I do monthly?

    I currently charge only $1.00 for featured links and will increase this once my PR increases.

    ? I don't think your getting a rush there mate, more like promoting in the wrong section, there is only 12 active links, probably most if not all added by you.

    regardless the price would depend on visitors / lenghtn of time as a partner link and work it from there, most seem to double the yearly list fee so in your case $2, but again i would be surprised at so called requests, so maybe post solicitations and announcements next time

    The directory is only 3 days old so we still growing :)

    $2 a month for now? Sounds fair.

    Any more comments?

    i think you can advertise your site with

    "Currently feature link is only for $1 (for limited days ) It can be changed to $5"
    with signature in forums or with blog and articles.

    can give you better response.

    And if you receive good traffics then you get also good PR soon.

    And then after you will get more money from your website.

    Thanks :)

    I am giving away 10 free featured links so thats where most sign-ups come from.

    My site used to be a forums and had a PR3 a few weeks ago so will my PR increase quicker then a site thats completely new?

    Selling links is bad enough, but basing your prices on PR is the ultimate recipe for a penalty.

    Well if my site becomes PR5 (not saying it is) than selling featured links for $1.00 would be underselling.
