    I see your website with an N/A rank as well.

    I agree, you should give it a bit more time.

    You may also want to consider adding more keywords to your META information.
    My personal blog is (a little over a year old) is already PR 4.
    An 8 year old website with actual resources should blow that out of the water.

    Do you see any errors in webmasters tools? If so, what are the errors? is it network unreachable?

    you are so right, and yet Google seems to have screwed up their algorithm so badly that having an older site is a liability, because they have been around long enough that google wants to find some reason to penalize, whether it is an update of content and interface and hosting or whatever, it is a real joke... they give pr3 for some 2 month old sites and penalize an 8 year old site

    come on Google, get a grip :eek:

    I'm using Google Chrome and clicked the link "PS3 Cheats" at the bottom and got a malware warning. You need to remove that sitewide link and maybe the rest. Sitewide external links also tend to look like paid links.

    Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer!
    The website at colossalcheats.com contains elements from the site 81.95.146.98, which appears to host malware – software that can hurt your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Just visiting a site that contains malware can infect your computer.

    Duplicate content I think not. This content is orginal in Google's eyes. I typed every cheat myself so they are all unique, although they may describe the same method and result of cheats.

    I did not sell any links.
