    Let's consider there is PR4 site on weight loss. It is DMOZ listed domain, internal pages ranges from PR2 to PR3. Total content - 300-400 pages.

    How much one would be willing to pay to have a custom article with 3 links going to their sites from such article from a themed site/page? Per month/per year?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Al

    p.s. I hope I posted in right section. If not - please move the post.

    You can always check out the links sales section under Buy, Sell or Trade and find out the current market price on what people are offering and what people are bidding for. Use that as a guideline for you to set your price.

    Abhik is right about $20, although it depends on the niche and I'd be more concerned about visitor traffic than page rank, a PR 4 is great but i would also want visitor traffic

    I don't buy links but I would gues that someone like myself would pay $50 for a permalink. The traffic is the most important factor.


    Why don't you ask in the sales area?
    I have my own product related to weight loss.

    article posts are not paid monthly or yearly, they are permanent. you can use the forum search feature to search for blogposts to see what others are asking and what buyers are paying. article/blog posts price range from $3-$30 based on niche, PR, quality of site, etc. it also depends on how many article or blogposts you want to sell. higher the asking price, lower will be the demand

    Thanks for these valuable insights.

    See, I'm not talking about a blog but about a well seo-ed website. Obviously the page you have your links on would be having only one person links per article (page). It would have some incoming links from article directories, web 2.0 etc sources, to boost the rankings for that particular article with your links on top of that. In fact, we have PR4 homepage, PR3 x 30 and rest of pages are PR1-PR2.

    Would be asking a 30-50$ say per year too high?

    Well, I see many people renting links here, in some cases like 15$/mo on a PR4 domain, most of these seems to be picked up from expired domains, duplicate content, no PR distribution to internal pages. So I'd say a good solid links from site like this one could be quite valuable in the right niche.

    We would be looking for around 10 people signing up as we want to maintain good proportion of geniue content/articles.

    Not sure if I want to be bothered once a year to pay for it. One-time payment looks like a more reasonable solution to me.

    But that would drive the short term costs up. As good permanent links could cost nice money.
