PR problems

[coder]

This is just another reason why Googles PR is worthless

We have a one page site for e-mail only with no IBL's and a PR of 4

Can I buy a text link? LOL

Thats impossible. You do not get PR without links. What is the URL?

I have a PR5 with no links. All I see is 2 listings in yahoo directory which are PR6 pages. :)

CBP,
here's the link http://bjalanco.com
no IBL's, no seo, and hardly any content.

oops posted again

Its cached by google --> must have links to find it.

According to the toobar, its listed in the Google Directory in this category:
Category (http://directory.google.com/Top/Regional/North_America/United_States/Texas/Localities/H/Houston/Business_and_Economy/Real_Estate/Rentals/)
As its not in that category, it must have been one of those dodgey redirects to get the artifical PR (not real) from another site before the last toolbar PR update. The PR will be gone when Google next export PR to the toolbar.

This one clearly shows This is G o o g l e's cache of http://www.txcorporatehousing.com/ as retrieved on Jul 31, 2005 06:14:30 GMT.

This answers why the DMOZ listing:
Texas Corporate Housing - http://www.txcorporatehousing.com/
Nationwide relocation resource offers information for relocating to the Dallas and Houston areas.

check the back links in yahoo.com shows none.

we have never used the site for anything, hence never had a reason to create any re-directs for it.

all the links in google are not real. unless someone else is creating redirects to our site, I would have to say this is a google flaw.

nakulgoyal is right. I checked the cache, but missed the bit about:
This is G o o g l e's cache of http://www.txcorporatehousing.com/ as retrieved on Jul 31, 2005 06:14:30 GMT.
The PR in the toolbar if from txcorporatehousing.

coder, AFAIK, This would only happen, if at some point there was a redirect from your homepage to that real estate website.

[coder]

I'm positive our site has never been redirected to any other site.

Unless before we purchased the domain someone else before us owned it and had it pointed to the real estate site.

http://www.bjalanco.com same site no PR
