The battle of the search engines.

Cheers

 

the two datacenters are 216.239.57.99 & 216.239.57.104

 

216.239.57.99 Updated to normal

 

all PR9 now

 

Hello guys,

just saw my PR on my new site rised from 0 to 4 but when was checking other things i saw that MSN is been removed from google index .. www.msn.com has only PR 2 ..

What is your opinion ?

I knew they ware "fighting" but I never though at this .

 

wow, no shat... PR2 it certainly is.

 

They probably got caught with some hidden text or doorway pages.

Google is also only returning eight backlinks for them.

SEOInc.com has no pagerank at all, though they do still have their backlinks.

 

all the data centers show PR8, yet my toolbar still shows PR2.

 

this was being discussed here but all appears normal (that what last post said )

 

Not when I last checked (About 20 mins ago)

 

Here are screenshots found on a blog this morning:

(see on the bottom the second comment )

I love it!

 

All showing pr2 now.

Hmm, this couldn't have anything to do with their current feud could it??

 

yea my toolbar also shows me pr2 for msn.

 

The data centers all show 8, my toolbar still shows 2. Maybe MSN is doing it on purpose to mess with Google.

 

MSN is playing a trick with google's PR system.

Actually, msn.com gets redirected (302) to www.msn.com which would prevent PR being passed.

Check using mcdar dc tool.... msn.com PR8 and www.msn.com PR2.

 

Google has a special pagerank for msn.com ! 2 !

If you don't believe me i made some screenshots and put them online on some old blog account of me.

Haha, don't you just love that?

Wonder if it will be the final result of the update

there's a bunch of threads on this already.. sorry to blow up your spot, but check url msn.com without the www on McDar or something and you will see it's just a canonical issue. msn.com has a PR of 8

 

Jup,

link:msn.com -> 7750 (G)
link:www.msn.com -> 8 (G)

linkdomain:msn.com -> 40,400,000 (Y)
linkdomain:www.msn.com -> 5,510,000 (Y)

msn.com->www.msn.com 302 redirection (doesnt pass pr)

 

pr8 is still low.. heck I saw some counter site has pr10 now.
Eric

 

I just checked it out myself and yep, I am seeing PR 2 for msn homepage.
