Nice topic!
I’ll pitch in:
9. The linking neighborhood of the site linking to you. (ie, The “Topic” of the links that link to that site. - and a comparision of how close of a “linking neighborhood” is to your site’s theme.)

10. What is the link text used to link to the specific page that links to you (how close the Page theme (related to links in, as well as an analysis of the on page topic, is in relation to your advertisors topic)

I’d add to your #5 example “The number of the number of unique URL’s linking to that site.”

I’m not sure what “power” is in #2…I personally believe that the power is only the sum of all the items on this list.

btw, Great List…I kept writing things down, and when I’d scroll up again to see your post, I ‘d see you’d already covered it!

I don’t think you can truly value a website these days without a sense of how to valuate the links a site has. If it were based solely around principles then anyone could do it. Buying and selling websites is somewhere between buying and selling established businesses, real estate, and stocks and bonds. The magic in it is that not too many people have figured out how to do it effectively. There is so much overspeculation and instability in the space that there are wild-eyed investors all over the place chasin’ a dream that is only sometimes based on reality. Here are some questions, tools, and criteria, potential equations, and general thoughts that I would check out for appraising a single website. [...]

What is your criteria for putting together web site traffic projections for Launch and thereafter for Situation Analysis in proposal for Grants and/or Sponsorship?

[...] Todd: Testing the value of a link is critical. You really need to know the type of link popularity that is going to be passed to determine a monetary figure to associate with the link. This way you know what kind of deal you’re getting. There’s a few ways to associate a value with the link. The really easy way - use Rand’s page strength tool, or Text Link Ads Link calculator, to determine some type of value associated with what to spend on the link. It’s even more important that you understand what type of criteria they are using to come up with those values. I use these 10 tips to determine the value of a link, but generally concern myself with the most important 5 criteria to a link’s value. Question Two: In sectors where links are particularly tough to come by (retail, B2B in boring industries, etc.), what are content tactics you’ve taken to appeal to relevant sites in those industries (specific examples would rock)?
