Look it up using this tool: http://www.seologs.com/pr-check/pagerank.html Or any of these: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=fake+pagerank+&ei=UTF-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&fr=moz3 -jay
Yup. They simply did a redirect trick. Do a search on the forums for it. They redirected to sony.com and then removed it.
Wow, the site only has 13 links on msn. I guess each one of them is pr9 What are redirect tricks and how do they affect pagerank?
This is again a proof that pagerank is a good basis of judging the sites usefulness and rankings. It has a PR8 but t has only one keyword and the site does not rank in the first 3 result pages of this keyword in google.
There is already 2 threads within one week explaining why this site is not a PR8 but a fake : http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=196385 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=198473
Yea, it's doing my head in actually. It actually takes LONGER to create a post than it does to do a quick search.
