"Website without any incoming link have PR 6"

Discussion in 'Search Engine Optimization' started by sexytechie, May 27, 2008.

    I just saw a blog having PR6 but no incoming links (checked Yahoo Site Explorer and also on Google) How it is possible that a website has PR6 without any incoming links?

    Did you checked for 301redirect? Is the PR real? It could be a dropped domain.

    I don't think that there is any possible way or tool to check redirection of url A to url b without knowing actual url A.

    It's not possible. Either there are links that aren't shown, the domain has been dropped, re-registered and the PR hasn't had a chance to zero, or it isn't real PR.

    Kinda hard to make that presumption when we don't even know what the Web site in question is, don't you think, MattUK? ;)

    (It could be that the Web site has a really good internal linking architecture set up and has a LOT of pages.)

    The site probably has a Fake/Forged PR...

    This is accomplished by redirecting the domain to another domain with a high PR...

    You can check for this a few different ways, one is to Google the domain name and take a look at the cache...

    or you can use this tool to see where the site was being redirected to:

    http://checkpagerank.net/

    This is a big issue with people selling domain names/hardlinks.. some do this on purpose, and some actually do this unintentionally...

    Not really, it's an incredibly easy presumption to make ;)
    It's impossible to 'create' PR, even with a 'really really good' internal link structure and lots of pages.

    The ONLY way pages can get PR is from incoming links.
