    So you just have to change a title tag on some website and purchase a link there? Easy SEO IMO. :)

    Lol- what a X-Mas joke.:p

    Google will never allow other sites- specially competitors better than itself - thats for sure.

    The thing is -- the main domain - google.com is PR10 and any regional page -- google.co.uk/google.co.in are PR7/8 .

    @ OP - please check which you are using. I always use the main URL and its PR10:D

    Google.com is at PageRank 10.
    You may be looking at the PageRank of the wrong page (e.g. iGoogle has a PR of 8, while some other Google country page have other PageRanks).

    Yes google.com is PR10. You may be looking at another TLD.

    proof - click on my www.google.co.uk link and if your in the us you get re-directed to www.google.com and vice versa they all lead to the same domain for your region. country or not every google top level domain should by its own algo have a pr10 otherwise it has a flaw or some crap.

    Huh, probably none. Google gets more searches than all those search engines.

    It's not flawed. Google UK has a PR of 8. If you wanted to see the main Google page, you can always click on "Go to Google.com". There, Google has PR10. Google.com automatically redirects you to a regional based page that usually have a lower PR.

    Google's PR is shared amongst it's many regional/country pages: Not all of Google regional/country pages have PR10 (only US has PR10).

    Did you notice that the Google result that is on the second page is actually Google.co.uk.. I guess it won't return itself as a result because you used Google to search for a search engine... it must know you are obviously searching for another one;)
    Yahoo is not that smart... it gives itself top honors, followed by Google, dogpile, Altavista, webcrawler, hotbot, metacrawler, alltheweb then Lycos.

    Try typing /ncr after google.com EG: google.com/ncr that should keep you at google.com and not redirect you to the uk version.

    Cheers

    Every Country gets served with a different google and is redirected there according to the geographical locations. And they all can have different PR's
