Okay so I have an old site.

I created it in a FLASH based site creator called Moonfruit in about 2004 so no html.

It has no pages apart from a holding splash page which has less than 100 words on.
It gets about 3 hits a day

Took a look at it today and it has a PageRank of 2 ... which given all of the above has left me a bit confused dot com??

Interestingly I compared it to a live site in the same niche done on Wordpress with lots of fresh content ... this guy loves his site and he has PR2 as well!

The only thing I can think is that the age of the site must an very important factor to Google.

Anyone got any ideas why my PR is so high???

    PR2 is not exactly high, but PR is calculated by factors not related to
    content. You could have a lousy, non-updated site with PR5.
    I think there is a ceiling, however, when more effort is required.
    But I've seen lousy, derelict PR7 sites. Biggest factor is backlinks
    and the value of them.

    Appreciate PR2 is not high but given the state of the site I am still amazed it has any ranking whatsoever
