Current high offer is at $1400. No, we have not actively marketed the site or domain to end-users yet.

In answer to questions asked on various sites and by email:

- Yes, AdSense screenshots are available. We're doing about $1-2 per day with less than 50-100 page views. This is a good keyword domain and the content works well with AdSense.

- Hosting is not included, but we could negotiate something if required.

- Yes, the links system can handle paid and premium linkings, autofeed of PPC results and much more. See http://www.wsnlinks.com/index.php?section=features for a complete listing of how powerful the software that drives this site really is.

Cheers,

Rob
