Suspended Page Rank 5

findit · 18-09-2008, 08:55:58 PM

I have found a domain which is suspended with pr5 and 74 backlinks, the domain name isnt grat but is it worth getting just for the other value?

dragon · 18-09-2008, 09:14:26 PM

i *believe* that after it goes through the 99 day process with nominet all the links and pr are "stripped" ... having said that i've heard of people who managed to keep the pr/links as well

but not for long... so it is damn confusing to say the least!

Good in theory, but I'm not sure it holds true - can't see link values affected that severly on domain expiry, but haven't tested extensivley enough really.

If it's cheap enough I'd definitley 301 / use it for PR.

Google are a registrar for a reason.

They have the suspended list and kill the pr and links, there is lots of talk about this on many seo forums

There are some exceptions, but not many

The back links are on other peoples websites, so unless they remove them, they will still be there, the PR is toast tho (some people held theirs by duplicating the original content and 'slowly' changing it to new).

as the guys say not likely you'll save the PR therefore not worth it

The backlinks are still there and valid and the domain could be built around the original topic then it's certainly worth registering.

Google PR will drop, but the traffic should still make it worth the regfee.

nope the pr is history im afraid.

I would agree with DaveH (Since "Blackpool" figured it was worth dredging up to add his concise knowledge too...)

I am sure that although Google strip PR, if you get the site and pages back together with similar content then Googles review will expire and at some point they will view it as a new site again, taking into account the backlinks and eventually restoring the PR ranking (if it still merits it).

Happy to be linked to something showing this is wrong though - still learning myself.

My personal opinion on this is that if the domain is rebuilt around the original content and the domain is resubmitted to Google via the webmaster console then there's no reason why the PR shouldn't return in time.

As others have said, the backlinks are still there and it's those that give the PR so as long as Google can be shown that the domain has been recreated for genuine purposes. What they can take away they can certainly re-instate as well.

What I'll do is register a domain that had PR and some quality backlinks (found via Unwanted-Domain-Names.co.uk), will rehost and rebuild it and I'll see what happens.

I'll report my findings back here.
