I have to decided to sell my directory
www.allwebscape.com which is a free and paid general web directory which has already established itself in the web directory space on the web.
Important website features include:
* The database contains about 2000 active submissions.
* The directory is powered by the popular PHP Link Directory, which I have modified.
* Yahoo shows 5,730 links to the entire domain
* Alexa ranking is less then 50,000
* Google Pagerank 6
* Receives about 200 visitors/day for the month of August '06 (has always been increasing)
* 90% is direct/bookmark traffic proving the longevity of the traffic.
* Other traffic would include links, search engines, and forum traffic.
Some good links to the site include:
http://info.vilesilencer.com/blog/ (recommended by Vilesilencer as a paid directory to submit to)

As demonstrated by the links above, Allwebscape is well rated and a recommended resource within the directory community.
Terms of the sale:
* All forum signature links will remain live for at least 3 months.
* I have paid for several long term text links, for either a 6-month or 1 year period. So no links will be taken down anytime soon. All other links are natural.
* No gurantees are made with future website earnings.
* Hosting for 6 months can be included free on the existing server.
* All active submissions must remain.

I think I have set a very realistic minimum offer and BIN, and expect a lot of interest from bidders as I have put alot of effort into building and marketing this directory which is only going to grow. I am sure with the use of other affiliate programs you could better monetize the 2500 uniques/month.
