    Hello,

    Today I was approached by a company who wishes to purchases footer-links on my Fable Forum. The company wishes to have 5 dynamic, rotating links placed in the footer that will be placed on every page of my forum. I would like to ask what a good price to quote would be? Here is my forum's statistics:

    Fable Forum

    Devil May Cry Forum

    I hope I provided enough information. Please advise me on a decent price to quote this company for forum-wide footer links and I'll be forever grateful! Green rep for anyone that helps too. ;)

    I look forward to hearing your suggestions; thanks very much in advance.

    Regards,
    Steve

    Hello,

    I used an appraisal tool I use for my sites, and the tool suggested $110.00 - $145.00 per month (for a sitewide link on your site).

    I usually go for 50-100% of the minimum value that this tools suggests, meaning that I would go for $55-$110 per month. That's for one link in the footer, though.

    Hope that is helpful.

    Here is an appraisal tool you can use. It gives you all the basic traffic stats of your site and suggests prices that you should sell links. I don't know how accurate it is but I really like this tool!
