I will tell you nicer idea

you can buy an expired domains and add them to a free website for linkbuilding, it is called "authority link network dot com"

remove the spaces and replace the dot with .

and so you will be able to post articles in other blogs to get a link from high PR blogs

Remember, expired domains do not keep the PR for long time
I think maximum 2-3 months

Back to the OP - definitely, this is a strategy many are using. These are what you would call "feeder sites". However, it is important to keep some fresh content happening on those feeder sites, and to try to get some nice backlinks to them too.

I don't do this for a very simple reason - I find that for the kind of competition I am tackling (not too great) it's quite sufficient to do the same thing, but on existing Web 2.0 platforms like Wordpress.com, LiveJournal, Blog.com etc. etc.

I have a number of those, plus other Web 2.0 thingies feeding into my "serious" money site - all quality content, updated from time to time, and it works a treat. And it's pretty white-hat too, and doesn't really take any more work than automated blasting, spinning and all that stuff. And I wonder if it isn't more effective, too, over the long run...

Well, I have discussed this in another thread and your site would have most likely gone from PR3 to 0 because it was a fake PR, not real PR.

Most make the mistake of buying fake PR domains, but that is the catch, sometimes its really hard to determine if the PR is fake or real.

not intended to be a plug for my WSO, but its exactly on topic. This is what we call homepage contextual backlinks. There are many people offering large networks of these types of domains ranging from as little as 10 sites up to several hundred.

On each of the sites, your url is listed on the home page. Many networks come with many high PR sites.

From my experience, these types of links make the biggest impact, but as you will learn, buying up, hosting, managing and backlinking these sites requires a lot of time and money. You can easily spend 1,000s or even 10,000s to make your network.

If your working on a smaller budget, it may be easier for you to get started by joining some of these networks, most if them are less than $100 and many even below $50. Getting listed on 25 high PR domains for $50 a month is a steal compared to buying them all up individually.

loading them up with too many links was a common problem, most network now limit the OBL. Buying and owning the domains provides greater control, but most small affiliates and website cannot purchase 100 domains with PR6, PR5 and PR4. To purchase even 25 of them will run about $5k investment, plus hosting and management, plus building more backlinks to maintain the PR.

Also, I have yet to see any of the networks get deindexed, or any site for that matter based on a complaint from a competitor... who are you going to report the problem too anyway that will actually do something about it? Not sure if you have ever tried contacting google before, but they are abysmal at response and taking action, nor do they have a complaints hotline

I know 'scrapebox' has a plugin for fake PR checker.
Anyone uses it and find it reliable?

i agree with seofarmer. check it ....

it is okay to use and buy the high pr domain. many link builders and seo are doing this kind of strategy. but do not overdo it as it may cause your money website penalize by google

It could always happen that Google penalize your domain name - that is part of the game.
But I think Google dont because it is dropped - they detected selling links or overdone adsense stuff.

It works great to buy expiring domains and use them to push other websites.

If you do proper research you can find some great expired domains, a great idea is to make a network in your niche to promote your website. Advice: keep your network content relevant with your website and keep updating it with new unique content even after you're seeing improvements. To cover the cost of web hosting(multiple c-class ip's), and domain renewals simply sale some niche specific blog posts in your network. This type of backlinking is practiced by big guys also and has a magical impact on SERP's

You really have to do your homework before buying high PR domains. Just last week I purchased a couple to plug into ALN but after doing some more research and getting up to speed on how to buy proper PR domains I know those domains I purchased are going to lose their PR after the next update, in fact I purchased a PR2 (only $10) and after paying for it the very next day it lost it's PR, probably coincidence but still sucked.

Now however I'm confident I can purchase a domain and be pretty sure that it's going to retain it's PR

Back to the topic;

Will purchasing an expired domain impact its initial age?
For example, if I plan to purchase a 8 years old domain, if I buy it today, will it show creation date as from 8 years ago, or today's date?

Most of all, does this even have any impact serps at all?

You can get a PR3 domain from scratch in a couple of months. Just post unique content every couple of days, social bookmark each post and throw a handful of other higher PR backlinks at each post. Doesn't take that much effort, although I'd make the posts 600 words plus each time. Relevant posts to the domain keywords that you are targeting, and have those keywords in the domain name.

edit - link back within post (with relevant anchor text) to your main domain a few times and link out to a few authority sites like Wikipedia, .gov research sites etc a couple of times.

Done

google will not know that is a new site. because google Refers to the DOMAIN and the backlinks the site have, even if the site is not active for a year, its still Refers to the power of the links.

Update: I've just checked again - rankchecker.com - adding www. before domain. This time it is

Hi,All I also need domains with high PR and backlinks to buy,if any one has let me know Thanks
