I am very curious as to the value of a PR9 website. Can't find much in the way of public sale histories... Guess they aren't available often.

I assume the best way to monetize a PR9 site is to sell text links and my assumption is they can be anywhere from 1000-5000 per link for the front page links (say 10 of them) providing a revenue of let's say 30k/month. Internal pages are probably pr7-8 and so I would estimate another 100 links at $200 OR 20K for a total of 50k/month. 600k/year income x 2 years = 1.2 million valuation...

What do you think?
 


Hm...if you sell public PR9 links big Go kick your a** really soon. I never seen selling PR9 link and price, but I guess it easily can be price what you already mentioned.
 
Nobody is ever going to sell a legit PR9 site, so why even bother with a valuation? If you have PR9 it means you've got millions of links and are one of the most popular sites on the internet, chances are people are linking to you for a reason.

This site used to be a PR9 for a very long time until the recent google pagerank update. And that was the price it was charging. Its PA and DA is still intact.

There's alot of legit PR9 and PR8 out there :S most of them are like tech site, and the only way they got their link is by supplying free dhtml menu or joomla menu with a backlink coming back to their own site..

Etc. just like "Powered by wordpress" .. so its given out free and back then users know nothing about backlinks and PR.
 
Well another famous one is dart-creations.com , used to be pr8 until the recent pagerank update as well, I think they spammed too much OBL on their page.

Why bother with a valuation... Let's say I'm buying a traditional business that has income derived from non-online means... I can easilly value the business revenue however if the company has a PR9 site that is not currently monetized and therefore no income reported. How can I put a value to this asset? It's similar to someone owning an appartment building that currently has no tenants but there is still some degree of value to this asset and if it's significant.. it needs to be taken into consideration.

The issue being there are very few examples of public PR9 website sales available. Think I saw one for $450,000 a couple years ago on flippa but my original post if it's roughly accurate would mean a PR9 should be worth roughly 1 million if not more...

Of course anyone with a PR9 would not likely be able to advertise the URL when selling text links to keep out of Goggle's tentacles...

Well that is pretty obvious but still does not answer the question.

What is the value of a PR9 website based on the PR factor alone (and therefore it's monetization potential). What would one be worth to you?
 
I wonder what a link from a PR9 site would cost... I feel as if if the site gave too much of their home page's SEO juice out, it'd decrease in rank rather quickly... although it does depend on a lot of other factors, too. Maintaining that PR would be extremely difficult.
 
Well I now own a Real PR9 domain. Just goes to show that PR9 domains can occasionally be purchased (although they don't crop up too often in the public eye).

Would sell a homepage PR9 link for $3000/month or $2500 on a longer term. Keep the OBL low (<10).. may have some availablility in a month or two. Also would have some inner page pr8's and pr7's which we may consider monetizing in the future as well..

I wish it was that easy! Site was previously not monetized in any way...

It's like buying an highrise appartment building with 100% vacant suites... Valuation can only be based on PR or the potential sales increase to someone else based on a 301 redirect...
 
I HIGHLY doubt you own a legitimate pr9 site and if you did, you'd be fucking stupid to sell links.

OOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO yea ok. totally believe you.

how much did you buy it for?

That's fine, I'm not asking for your or anyone else's confirmation of what I own and what I don't own. My professional life has been operating a chain of brick & morter businesses. I knew absolutely nothing about SEO or PR until 12 months ago when we came to the realization our businesses website (which was built in 2000 solely for the purpose of promoting our brand -and therefore not monetized in any way) was in fact a PR7 and apparently in the world of SEO; that meant something.

Since then I have learned an enormous amount on SEO and made some mistakes along the way (ie. never change your url from http:// to https:// if you have high PR as it will affect your backlinks and PR). It's been a very interesting experience migrating our site from one that promotes our brand image to one that is geared towards E-commerce and I'm extremely confident in our direction as we are ranking on the first page for an increasing amount of industry-related keywords every month.

Point being I did purchase a domain which I knew to be a PR9. It's real and has been confirmed by another WF member. I really don't care about any other comments by those who are non-believers; they can Trlololo all they want while I continue to bank one way or another.

While I consider myself fairly well versed in SEO and able to rank pages etc, I've never owned a PR9 site in the past and I know very little of other potential ways to profit in the online world and I'd certainly be stupid not to listen to other marketers who know more about online stuff than myself. Why else would I be here and writing this?

My goal at this time is no different than the original post back when I hadn't purchased the domain... Find the best valuation for a PR9 domain. Either build it into a long term income stream or flip it.

That said, you say its a bad idea to sell links? I'm all ears.

You have a better idea for a Science related domain with thousands of .edu backlinks? One that was never monetized or for which the keyword is of little value as a generic keyword and one that generates relatively low traffic? Let me know.

You have a business plan better than simply selling backlinks for a PR9 domain? Pm me.

Here's the opportunity of your lifetime.
I'm willing to listen to your ideas and proposals and will entertain joint ventures / commission based on sales. I have a PR9 domain, staff that can code the site, handle all financial/accounting functions, what can you offer?.

btw, I see nothing wrong with selling 10 external links for $2500/month on a long term basis. $25k/m is a substantial revenue stream by itself and would not be very likely to affect the PR of the site if care is taken in choosing the advertisers and they are long term in nature. So the question really is "is there a better strategy"..
