Found this website in Alexa in the Movers & Shakers section - http://www.8bestsites.com/

Good Alexa rating and good money making type site. Was suprised at the type of website but am sure they made a lot of money via the ads and curious visitors.

Wow, how is its alexa ranking so high? Is it really that popular? I know your alexa can be manipulated, but the site is under 3000, so thats pretty hard to completely cheat unless you do get traffic.

It is a nice concept, just too bad it isn't actually anything close to the best 8, no less even on the same topic sometimes.

Yeah, I have a search website which can be changed to provide a similar look with a better layout and Ad integration. Am just wondering at the ethics (do we keep any ethical standards in making money via websites?). What are your thoughts on such websites - good idea and ok or exploitative/money grubs?
