    First, I have to give some background. I am VERY new to this whole Domain Name/Website sort of thing. I've been lurking at these forums for a while trying to learn what I can, and just started posting recently. I'm still unsure of some terminology (PR1,2,3,4) but I think they refer to the worth of a site.

    I'm not sure how kindly a "noob" will be taken to, but I'd like to receive some assistance. I own a site/domain name (www.ipodsforall.com) and I do not want to run/have the site anymore. How can I find out how much it is worth/put up for auction etc. Is "sitepoint" (which I've heard someone mention) an auction type deal for links?

    I'd pretty much want to transfer the domain/site over to someone. Any help/assistance that can be provided will be appreciated.

    After you get enough posts you can try and sell it here in the buy/sell forums.

    This is why a minimum post rule doesn't always work out so well.

    PR in this context is an abbreviation of PageRank, a value Google gives to a site largely (I would say completely, but others sometimes say other factors come into play) based on the backlinks that website has. It doesn't neccesarily refer to the worth of a site, but it's reasonably safe to say that sites with a higher PageRank are also likely to attract higher bids. IMHO, the value of PageRank 1 through 4 is minimal - as on many occasions a single link can boost your site up to PR4.
