Strange PageRank Help

    Hi,

    Now I know PR is next to useless these days, but a friend of mine has a website (www.londongt.org) which has NO backlinks, but has a PR 5 and also is ranked in all the search engines!

    Any ideas on how this has happened? It has a domain name of 3 years 7 months, but even so! It is not optimised, so what is going on?

    Best regards,

    Mischa

    i don't think it's cloaking - there are a childrens education company and are a very well respected one! Any other ideas?! I was thinking it was the key to a good site in terms of Google's algorithm?

    ok, it seems I may have been wrong - it does have a lots of links from authority sites and gov sites! But my normal tools didnt pick these up - i had to use Yahoo Explorer.

    My normal tools are tools.marketleap.com and http://www.backlinkwatch.com/ - they reported 0 any ideas?

    Do not worry about it.

    Everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

    Why do you think he has no backlinks as google also shows with the link command some and that does mean he can have a lot more than those reported by G
