Beware High Page Rank Expired Domain Fraud
Buying established domains with existing page rank and back-links is a recognised method for starting a new website with a bit of extra ‘kick’.
The problem is new trends attract new opportunists.
Jerry West, an experienced SEO analyst and affiliate marketer has just released an interesting article on how these scammers are operating and details how to protect yourself from potential false high PR expired domain purchases.
Jerry says that these scammers take advantage of the fact that most marketers don’t fully understand how the Google PR score works. He says that PR (PageRank) is in fact delayed by 3 to 5 months in the Google toolbar much in the same way a free online tool for stock quotes delays the quotes by 15 minutes.
