    Hi, I own CP Hosts.com (You may have noticed my signature all around the forums!! :)) Well I want a good Page Rank for my website mainly because of two reasons:

    1) A small amount of free traffic from Google Search Engine
    2) Most people who have a Google Toolbar look at the Page Rank of a website before they order anything...(I used to do this before I became interested in SEO)

    Well, another web hosting website is selling their site. I knew just by looking at it, that it was a turnkey website and they have absolutely no customers. However, something else caught my eye. The PageRank of the home page was PR3!! Now the owner probably doesn't know the significance maybe.....

    Anyhow, I was thinking of buying it for $3 and doing a redirect...any suggestions??

    Also, can you look at my website:
    http://www.cphosts.com/

    I have worked pretty hard on it and wanted to know what the SEO Experts think about it. I am not moving the flash design no matter what!! :D
    Should there be anything else that I can add on to help my SE Ranking?

    Why doesnt your site have a PageRank? PR3 is nothing and extremly easy to achive and most will have a PR3 without doing much. Did you do something to upset mistah GooglBot?

    What? No I just have a new website, that's all. Although I'm still waiting for Google to index my website, it's pretty annoying. I submitted it a week ago when EVERYTHING was finally finished.

    Forget submitting, Its a waste of time and energy. What you need is links of sites that get crawled regularly.

    If you can buy the turnkey sites for $3, great. Otherwise its probably not worth much more. Pagerank is over rated.

    I have nearly a 1,000 Links pointing to my website, but most of those pages aren't indexed by Google. Most are MSN and about 64 are indexed by Yahoo!

    I guess I'm not going to buy the site then.

    If you can buy the site for $3 and redirect it to yours, i dont see why not. If it doesnt help your site, then you only lose $3.

    I am curious though, how you have 1000 links to your site if your site is new. And if that is true, you should slow your link building campaing. Getting too many link too fast can be bad in the eyes of google.
