Detecting fake PR

[jumpenjuhosaphat]

What is a good way to detect if a PR is faked without using an online Fake PR checker? I have read in several places to look at the cached pages PR, but that always seems to be PR0, some say to look at the page itself, if it isn't a replica of the current page, then it could possibly be a redirect. I have used PR checkers that check multiple data centers, but I have not seen if that is accurate or not. I would assume it is.

1. Check with Google catche. If it the same page, it means that it is the same pagerank.
2. Use tool www.mypagerank.net - owned by Google
3. Use backlink checker tools www.iwebtool.com and www.domain-pop.com . You will see how many backlinks website have and their pagerank.

The cached version of a page is not always a good indicator that the PR is spoofed. If I wait until the cache is regenerated/updated, you'd have no idea if the PR was genuine or not.

Look at the actual back links reported to see if the pages have an active hyperlink or not. You can spoof the PagePank, but you can't fake the back links.

You should recheck the registration - unless you know something I don't, I'm not seeing the relationship.

If the PageRank is spoofed, these tools will not indicate that the PageRank is fake.

You should learn to rely on other indicators other than outdated toolbars and online tools that rely on the same information reported by a useless toolbar. You might save yourself quite a bit of grief later on.

It's amazing to see how many are duped into buying worthless links on previously expired domains with PageRank. Even some of the better online PageRank detector tools can be fooled if you know what you're doing.

so, in this case i can add... you should always check WHOIS

It is Database-search that would say whether a page rank is real or not...

search for the domain name minus the .com .net or ...

should list in the first few pages if it has a high pr google gives a very high rank to the domain name

Ie domainname should list high for domainname search
see my other post about get listed without any links
I just registered the domain and forgot about it and then saw it in the serps a few month later.

If a site does not list high for it domain name it is under a penilty
