Check Page Rank

I was recently at a forum and saw a post on CheckPageRank.com and how it recently sold for $50,000. If you visit the site now, you will see that the DOMAIN is EXPIRED!

Even though there isn’t a site on the domain anymore, I’m sure it’s still getting a ton of traffic and making GoDaddy.com a few bucks from the ads… after all, it is #1 on Google still for "Check Page Rank". Imagine paying $50,000 for a web site and domain… then forgetting to RENEW! I’ve had problems before with losing domains, but GoDaddy’s automated renewal process makes everything so easy. I can’t imagine what happened!

If you would still like to check your page rank anyway, try some of these:

Live Page Ranke (Recommended – Multiple Server Check)

    I tried to buy the domain from the guy for $52k and I never got a response. The $50k sale never went through. I watched the domain expire and I kept trying to backorder it but GoDaddy pretty much sucks for filing backorders. Anyways, it has been re-registered again.

    I REALLY wanted that domain…..

    I can’t believe anyone would do that with 50k investment

    Why would someone spend 50k on a site that offers the same features as countless others?!?

    Maybe I’ll start a ‘Make money online blog’ and flog it on SitePoint for 50k!

    Am I missing something?

    Am I missing something?

    All the traffic that it gets?
    The good organic SE rank?
    The type of traffic and the ease to make money with that kind of traffic?

    I could go on and on and on…

    Hey Zac,
    I think most of the references you’ve pointed at are for toolbar PR. (based on the previous update).

    To check at the Google datacenters for your current PR (ie Live PR), a good site is: http://livepr.raketforskning.com/

    I’ve found the iWebTool PR predictor to be pretty useless cos they mostly count link quantity and don’t seem to factor in their PR value.

    It could give you high hopes and leave you feeling disappointed after a PR update.

    Yeah, it’s the one to use when a new “PR Update” is one the way. Love seeing those stupid discussions on every webmaster board before the tool bar PR is updated.

    That is a good amount of money though, if the traffic is good – they can get it back with adsense itself.

    Do you think we’ll see the day when LCD monitors are replaced by holographic displays? Screens that literally appear out of thin air in full color?

    What do you think? Holographic technology is still fairly new but there are scientists out there who believe we’ve only begun to tap into it.

    There are also people working on holographic based cloaking devices for use in combat. In 10 years we could be looking back on the technology of today and laughing.

    Thoughts?

    What are your favourite (lyrical) themes in music?
    Are there any you don’t like?
    I generally dislike love-songs.. or these girl power-thingies you see on MTV (but I guess that’s normal for a guy).
    Of the music I actually listen to I’m not particular fond of the workers ethics in classic rock songs.. you know, about the booze and the relationships that don’t really go your way
    I also dislike the superficial ‘love for everything’-mumbo jumbo in new age music, it’s so cheesy..
    And the gore and porno-themes in some heavy metal.
    Politics are also a real turn-off for me. Either I disagree with the views (and thus feel annoyed) or because it’s too down to earth (I prefer fantasy).
    My favourite themes are culture & history, mysticism and the occult, fantasy, war, nature, solitude and anger/hatred. Quite the bombastic stuff.

    I don’t have a link to the story. I saw it on our news and read the article in our paper today.
    A woman was pregnant with triplets. For some reason (they didn’t disclose for privacy purposes), one of them was born (not even by c-section but natural way) at 25 weeks and the doctors were successful in stopping the other two from coming out.
    So now the woman is taking care of the preemie and is still pregnant with twins. In this case, are they still called triplets?
    Anyone heard a familiar case? Supposedly, this is becoming more common especially for pregnancies due to fertility treatments/methods.

    I think Burger King is the better fast food joint out of the two of these. The burgers taste better, the fries taste better, the have WAY better pies and the only thing McDonalds does better than them is the chicken nuggets.

    Have you ever been to a themed party where you dressed up accordingly?

    Every year we have a themed party which includes costumes, food, music, backdrops to match.
    Over the years we’ve had the following themes: China, Under the Sea, Colours, Out of Space, Countries, Black & White, Hawaii, History, Fairy Tales… Can’t think of anymore.

    Anyway they are real fun, seeing what everyone dressed up as and how they interpredted the theme idea.
