research the traffic, research the audience, research the countries, and then reach out to them. an offer to buy, I do that. And because if somebody put their directory for sale, very often they want to sell it for quite a lot. But if you surprise a founder with a offer for a directory, they might just sell it right away for the offer you made and you can have a better deal, I think.

I think the 5K is probably where you can get without being lucky or being too smart. In my case, I would say the average direct rate I have is there. It's on 5K. I know that if I put more time, I can bring it to maybe 15 to 20K.
