Hey All, What do u think is the best way to know if a deleted name with PR (When Deleted) will have a PR in furture as well? I checked various online tools, but for deleted domains no website seem to show any results. Not even PR, may be because it is deleted. Any Ideas?? Thanks
An expired PR domain is very likely to loose PR over time since sites that link to it will remove that links when they see that the site changed.
You can easily check for the PR using any of the above sites....but most of the time that PR is fake, so you should check that before registering the domain name. I have written a post about detecting fake PR using Google.... http://tech-tonic.net/seo/fake-pagerank-detection.html Hope this will help! vib.
Expired Domain names have their age resetted back to NIL and is treated as a brand new site. It is most likely that over the course of inactivity, the domain name would inevitably be dropped from search engines and thereby the page ranking will disappear too.
