Expiring domains & PR
Hi, I have recently won a 5 year old domain in a after market auction. The domain has a PR of 2. According to ICANN the domain expires in 09 but according to whois it expired the 3rd of last month. The after market company says it will take 30 days until I have the domain in my account. I also paid for a 1 year extension on the domain. Here are my questions:

1. Will the domain lose pr before I get it.
2. Will the domain age stay or will it be like registering new?

I talked to a couple people at the company and they weren't really sure. The only reason I bought the domain is because of the age and pr so I'm hoping I can keep both but I'm not really sure how all this works.

Thanks

Since PR is based upon incoming links then it should not be affected unless the sites linking to it decided to remove their links or if their is a google update prior to your domain going live. But to be honest getting a PR2 is pretty easy and dosent require many links anyway so i would not get too worried if you lose it.

In regards to domain age, it will remain the same and indeed get older, i had a similar situation with a pre registered domain and although i have owned it for 2 years it is 6 years old!

Hi

Replying to you questions

1. Will the domain lose pr before I get it.
Any body cant predict it .. PR depends upon the back links( quality) but what i think is as the PR update is over you have very less chances of losing the PR ...

2. Will the domain age stay or will it be like registering new?

Domain age will be their .. even if it is 5 years or 5 months

Regards
Bossy
