Do you buy domains from people? Then you must read this. And if you don’t then you should still read this. Its something you should know.

Okay I know that a lot of people buy nice domains, build an “okay” site on it and then sell them. They don’t just sell them right away, of course. They get a nice PR first because the buyers want to rank high (or maybe buy the domain and then sell it for more). Well things like these are always going on.

But, the important thing is you need to watch out for fake PRs. No, I am not joking. You can put a fake PR on a domain. And I’m sure that there’s a lot of people doing it right now. So, how do you figure out which PR is fake and which one’s are real? Well just follow these four simple steps:

1. Find the domain you want
2. Go check out the site on that domain
3. Google this “site:www.YOUR-DOMAIN.com” and you should find caches of that site
4. Go check the cache. See anything fishy? Is it the cache for the site on that domain? Or a cache from a different site?

If you answered yes to step #4 then its a fake PR. To fake a PR, you basically redirect the Googlebot to a site with a high PR and it gets tricked. And you get the PR of that site. I’m not going to tell you how to do it of course, but you get the idea.

So, next time you buy a domain from someone remember to do this. Good luck! Oh and don’t forget to share your experiences with us. Like if you ever bought a domain with a fake PR (or maybe sold one?).

This is a very common thing. People think that if they make a clone of a popular site then they too will be popular and enjoy the same success. Let me tell you something. This is very stupid! Its not true! This is usually common between new webmasters.

Why it doesn’t work?

Well clones will never be successful because you need to put your own time and effort making it. Making a carbon-copy of something will never guarantee success. You need to do the SEO, marketing, and most of all, get your own identity.

Why would someone choose you over something that’s already well established? Do you think people would use your Facebook clone over the “real” Facebook? No!

Stop buying clones

And I’ve also seen a lot of people going crazy and buying clones. Don’t do that. You’re just wasting your money. Its not worth it. Its not worth your time and energy.

Clones suck. Think fresh!

OMFG people! Why is everyone making a warez forum? I just don’t get it. Why? Do you not get it that warez forums are lame. There is too much competition. There’s bigger fishes (with lawyers) than you.

I’ll keep it simple. They suck because its just zombies copy/pasting links and information all day. That’s just it. There is no real discussions there. Well if you consider people reporting dead links and saying thanks a discussion then that’s different.

Plus its 2008 people. There are millions of tiny and big warez forums. You’re not the first or even the second one to make it. Too much competition.

And its not nice to give away things that people spent money and time making. I don’t know why but all the new forums have a warez section or its completely about warez. Weird. I don’t think people think about choosing a better niche.

If you know anyone or if you, yourself is planning to make a warez forum then do the rest of the world a favour and don’t make one! Please think of something better.

Warez isn’t cool. Its lame!
