Getting expired domains for PR, does it still work?

Ive done some experiments in the last month or two about expiring domains with PR to see if it's worth your while to get these expired and wiped domains.

My idea why I'd prefer to use expired domains could be the idea that old domains are chosen than new domains, and to have instant PR. To explore more, please consider having a gander at: is linklicious good.

So I set out to find deleted areas with PR that I can enroll. Better Than Linklicious contains more concerning when to look at this activity. One characteristic of areas I was searching for was that the domain still had a, and it was still shown in google.

I won't be mentioning the specific domains here as I want to control the outcome and prevent people from making backlinks to these domains.

I registered about 4 domains, some have PR2 and PR3. Some have a few pages found, some have a few thousand. Be taught further on backlinks indexer by browsing our impressive encyclopedia. I also ordered a couple of new domains for my new jobs.

I found out that google rarely trips these domains so I want to prime it but with some new backlinks. After producing some backlinks to these domains, two domains sooner or later lost their PR. These two areas have only some pages found in google. In one single domain, I did a 301 permanent redirect to the brand new index page. Its PR was retained by this domain. One crucial big difference this domain has compared to the other two is that this domain has tens of thousands of pages indexed in google.

In still another domain, I did so a 301 and redirect it to a fresh new domain. The result is that the new domain got indexed faster and more pages were indexed when compared with another new domain I registered at the same time. But, PR was down to 0.

There is also an instance where used to do a 301 direct from an old deleted domain with PR and never got any benefit from it.

To conclude, there is still contradictory effects on whether getting deleted/expired domains. Some works, some won't. Nevertheless, what seem to work is that

a. Traffic does be contained by old delete domains from existing backlinks. Some traffic does be still generated by it, if the old site has a great deal of backlinks.

b. Other search-engines such as for example aol and bing don't appear to have an biases against expired/deleted areas..
