Why is this site PageRank 0?
If you’re new to this site you may be wondering why the Google Toolbar PageRank is showing 0.
Google Toolbar PageRank (the green bar you see on the Google Toolbar) may not be as important as it once was, however, you should still have cause for concern if a website owned by an SEO company has a value of 0 displayed. This could imply that the site owners have received a penalty and their practices may not be sound.
The reason this domain has a PageRank 0 is because it has only just gone live and Google has yet to assign a value.
This site used to be known as www.kesphelps.co.uk which has been online since 2002 and there has been a recent migration from www.kesphelps.co.uk to www.linkjuice.co.uk. The appropriate 301 permanent redirects were put in place from www.kesphelps.co.uk to www.linkjuice.co.uk which tell Google the web pages have ‘Permanently Moved’ and their new location. Also, Google Webmaster Tools has been notified of the change of address.
This is the Google endorsed approach to migrating domains and is recommended to minimise the risk of lost rankings and traffic.
NB: when migrating domains always back it up with a strategic link building campaign.
Rankings have held and traffic hasn’t dropped. Now it’s just a case of waiting for Google to do it’s thing and the mystical green fairy dust to reappear…
