    Well, let me get this straight I dont think my domain has got to be PR1 within a day but here is the story!

    I bought a 1 year old expired domain and today put a wordpress blog on

    All of a sudden some PR checkers and my firefox toolbar are saying this is now a PR1. It was N/A earlier on today.

    The site is www.freeseoarticle.com

    Is this a genuine PR?

    I am not sure why this could be?

    Thanks

    I don't think your site is genuinely PR1, sometimes expired domains do weird things.

    That is what I thought..

    I have added it to around 150 directories today and done a little bit of SEO but I thought I was seeing things as usually it takes months.

    Hopefully it will stay like it but I have a feeling after a week or so it will be back down :(

    Well I've checked it using dnScoop.com and your site appears to be a valid PR1!

    However, this is more likely because it's previous owner had some strong backlinks and that's why you're getting now a PR1. You should work really hard to mantain your rank! Get some strong backlinks and everything should be OK.
