seo question
 

got a question for you guys.

someone is trying to sell me a domain that has a very high pr rank. but it has been inactive for a while, its non adult. would this be smart to buy and add links directed to my other website??

yes get it!
good luck

yes, get it but be smart in adding links

thanks guys!

But pls check which pages have high PR... because it is Page Rank, not WEBSITE rank!!

Terrible idea. You're not going to get an ounce of SEO juice from it.

I think it depends on how he does it. What's your point Arnox?

'Inactive' likely means it has zero content on there, such as a parked page. As soon as that domain name changes hands (i.e. there is a change in registrar) then Google's going to know that what might have originally been a high authority site is not what it once was.

Also, high PR means fuck all. You could have a URL with 1 billion backlinks, all from low-quality sites, that gives it a 5-6 PR. Also, if the site is in a completely different niche (I'm going to bet that this a .edu domain) the link is going to look dodgy as fuck.

If you're going about SEO with non-niche linking from inactive sites, you're living in what the Internet was 10 years ago.
