Estate Round Directory

Estate Round has been around since December of 2005 and is steadily adding links throughout 2010. As of today, December 26th, 2010, they are charging $19.95 for regular links and $64.95 for featured links. They also advertise free exchange with quality sites.

The have their own unique template design, and have installed several mods from the phpLD Vault including ratings, report this link, and email author.

Their Alexa rank is relatively low at around 320,000 but their pagerank is quite healthy at 4. Yahoo Inlinks shows over 15,000 incoming links, many from the real estate sector, so they seem to have done a good job with on topic incoming links.

My main critique would be the number of "partner" links that are sitewide. Hopefully they could reduce these, and hopefully add some additional quality content beyond just links. Overall, they do seem to be selective about the links, and it seems likely they are making money with this site monthly from partner links, link submissions and some banner advertising.
