Most larger sites are purchased on the basis of how many bookmarks they have - not their trades. It's why people pay more to get listed on the hun than most any other TGP - he's all bookmarks. All you have to do is look at the income of heavy bookmarked sites compared to heavy traded sites with the same amount of total traffic.
For example - and I mean no disrespect to Pichunter cause I think he did an INCREDIBLE job getting his site as big as it is today soo quickly, but I doubt he's even close to being in the same income bracket as Voyerweb or Mark's Bookmarks.

Both bookmarked sites and heavily traded sites make money but the guys who are more weighted with bookmarks than trades in my experience always seem to make a LOT more money.


Course what so I know - I've been told I'm an idiot.
