Google and Dropped Domain Registration

Hello,

I recently registered a domain and found the following as its history

Registrar History: 3 registrars with 2 drops.
NS History: 6 changes on 6 unique name servers over 4 years.
IP History: 13 changes on 11 unique name servers over 4 years.
Whois History: 10 records have been archived since 2007-10-22

I cant find mentions of the site by performing any of the following

1. link:<domain> operator
2. site:<domain> operator
3. No results in yahoo site explorer
4. No web archive record could be found

Do you think this would affect me if I start a new blog fresh on the site? (Considering the fact that it has been dropped 2 times already)

I heard somewhere that Google will reset the links to the site once it gets dropped. Is it true?

I am planning to start a site on a related niche.

Will I face penalties if the previous site has spammed or had some penalties?

 

just upload your stuff and check if the domain will do ok - keep working if nothing happens

 

when domain drops normally the PR drops

if that domain has good keyword then go for that name

if that spammed it probably banned already

 

Yes google WILL reset it once you buy it, unless you order it in the same name as the previous owner.
