How is this possible?

How the heck do these kind of weird domain names (http://www.gzxymkj.com) get a Page Rank of 5?

 

They have 2 PR6 Backlinks

 

Maybe it has some very high PR backlinks.
I am actuallty surprised that it has such a high PR expecially when the site does not really contain anything

 

The PR of a page has nothing to do with the weirdness of the domain name. Weirdness and non-weirdness are not
used by Google when assigning PageRank,

This is also a good example that content on the page has nothing to do with the PageRank of that page.

PR is based on the PR of incoming links and nothing else. Write that on your wall.

This amply shows why PR system is highly flawed and people should stop giving it so much importance... for their own good!

Yes,they have 2 PR6 backlinks. This site only use blogspot platform.

 

The one factor pagerank of any domain depends is on the number of backlinks it has.
This site obviously has high PR backlinks, thatz the reason it has PR5.

 

How did you even find it? I doubt that site would get any visitors.

Hey Bompa? I always thought weirdness was part of Google's algorithm. Man, I should of been a plumber...lol

 

This is another proven of "PR is not a true website indicator anymore". Since they have got 2 backlinks with PR6 then it easily to be manipulated than I ever expected. Many webmasters were trying to game over Google, then they do the same back. that's it

This is also my doubt. I assume this one is may your friend site, or your competitor site, or your own site to be worse.

It looks like it is a blog on Google blogspot platform but how could it also have an independent domain?

Thanks,

 

Sunny...read the responses before you post. You repeated what Bpmpa said

 

It has 2 PR6 links and one of them is a gov domain..

 

Second that

I don't see anything weird it int w.r.t the pagerank

 

I found this domain name here on DP only. It was on sale. I don't really remember the tread though. But it's now proved how big fool, Google really is and how PR can be manipulated. But I wonder, when will people stop giving preference to PR of websites. *sigh*

 

And there were many other PR4 blogs, with only ONE blogpost and a totally messed up domain names

 

I even saw just one page for a domain with PR5 couple of weeks earlier

 

If this is how PR can be cheated, I think anyone can pay people for getting a single link from a gov website and boost the PR in a single day!

 

So lets see, buy two links from China .gov sites for $50/month, which then gets you a PR5 on your blog. Then turn around and sell 7 links for $100/month each. hmmm.........

It looks like G's ability to filter this type of garbage needs some work. In fact, based on recent disputes with the Chinese government I don't know why G doesn't ban all *.gov.cn sites.

Back to this particular site, I agree with digitech that the .gov links are big and would add that G tends to favor its blogger sites. This combination (along with decent aging) is IMO the reason for the high PR.

 

This shows it can still be gamed for those who feel pr is important or for domain flipping. You see more threads on pr than traffic ... I'll take the traffic.
