Alexa, Google PR, MSN Back Link, Yahoo Back Link for expired domain

[thestarshine]

Brothers,

I need your suggestion, if we will buy expired domain - which one to be considered - Alexa Rank / Google PR / MSN BL / Yahoo BL?

Thank you for your sharing.

Kind Regards,
Tss

Brothers,

It depends what you want the domain for, but you should really look at everything.

Personally I look for domains with a reasonable name, some pr, some pages in Google and Yahoo, backlinks in Yahoo, with some pages in wayback that look appropriate for the domain, Alexa rank and MSN pages would be a bonus. I'd also search google for the name to make sure it hadn't been asociated with any scams, or other activity I don't like.

I would look at the google info: data to make sure it wasn't re-directed, then look at a couple of the reported yahoo backlinks to see if they are actually in place. If there are any Google backlinks I'd check them out too, but wouldn't worry too much about Google backlinks because recently thy haven't benn reporting any for most expired domains (even if the links are actually there)

You might link to look at http://www.dropdoctor.com/freelist.asp to see the sort of data that's available.

Google Pr would be most important to me..Out of what you listed, I guess Yahoo BL would be second most important

Alexa Rank

Google PR

After all the thing you want most is traffic.

Good Luck
