    Think about it this way, if you didn't own the directory and the owner was charging a fee for getting listed, would you pay for it ??

    Setting prices based on PR is not good business sense.

    I just started my directory but i`ve decided that if i get atleast 500 unique visitors per day, then i might consider adding payment as optional for a little extra service.
    Tbh i see more and more people are specializing on getting better affiliates rather than putting payment options in their directories. If you put yourself in the shoes of a visitor who will see "free - takes up to 7 days for review" along with the payment options and prices, you will just close the window and move on to millions other directories that are just free and got faster approval.
    Just my thoughts :p

    My directory is pr2 and 2 years old. But I still make it free and accept featured links with $2.99. Sales are not good because people will not pay for a pr2 directory.

    I think you should not charge for regular links, but you can charge some higher for featured listings.
