Ya the links use rel="nofollow" so it wont help you anyway. Also they are not getting indexed either.
You have to double check those dynamic pages with a web checker. ANY page with a dynamic string will show the homepage PR, ex: http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=this-is-a-fake-PR-link google's firefox toolbar and web checkers show that as pr0, the searchstatus firefox shows it as pr8.
the answer for FireFox extension is simple (I happened to have been reading release notes for search status ext. tonight): it removes all query terms before checking the URL, so it is only check PR for "http://www.spreadfirefox.com/"
Of course if you really want PR you can 302 your page to google.com and turn off the redirect after the next PR update (or cloak). It's getting silly the number of people trying to sell text links based on spoofed PR (in the buy/sell forums elsewhere they're even trying to sell useless sites based on spoofed PR!)
LOL @ Hodgedup's word. I've never gotten anything like that, but I've gotten some dumbass words on various site before. Unfortunately, though "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Hodgedup again."
It passes PR, that's for sure. If you check the early blogs, they are PR7. But any outgoing links won't help with the no follow.
Ok so get a blog, get a pr7, throw weight at it and rank.... Just like the "failure" or "miserable failure" cases?
Little update, my blog is ranking top 3 in google for a competitive term (which I wont disclose) after pointing a small amount of weight at it (which I also wont disclose : ) Good luck.
People, stop being obsessed by PR! It doesn't mean anything and won't help you with your desired rankings! If you still feel like you can't leave PR alone, be warned that everytime you see an url with ?, &, =, etc. in it, it just doesn't mean anyting at all. Really, not anything at all. Only static urls have a confirmed PR.
You are wrong. Search google for failure or miserable failure. And don't tell me page rank had nothing to do with the position of that site in the serps.
I will defenitaly tell you that that has nothing to do with PR. It has to do with the targeted anchortext of "miserable failure" pointed to the website(s) from many sources. PR has nothing to do with the rankings, as those site(s) had the same PR before, but were not ranking for "miserable failure". This happened only after lots of people placed links to it with those keywords. A page ranks well because many other sites use the specified anchortext to link to it, as a SIDE effect this can caus a rise of PR, but in itself PR is completely and utterly useless.
