    IHello. I registered the domain xr.gs less than a month ago, while testing a script i'm working on I saw the following:

    PageRank 0 Alexa Rank 1,357,962 Back Links 34,000 MSN Search Results 0 Yahoo! Search Results 170,000
    There is no site built yet! I have promoted 3 wordpress templates for sponorship sales on the domain but thats it. Two are availble for download from there too.

    Whats going on? Am I going to get a big fat PR rating? Or is this some kind og hiccup or bug?

    Most obvious answer would be: it was owned by someone and got deleted before you registered it.

    What was the status/amount of backlinks right after you registered it?

    That did occur to me. I'm not sure if it was regged. There's no way to tell either because theirs no whois for .gs domains, not that I can find anyway.

    I don't know to be honest :s

    I would have to agree with this statement
