Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - Who wants to trade links with a legit PR7?

It might be naive of me, but I'm finding it hard to believe that Jay or his people would do this deliberately.

Altho, admittedly, if it wasn't Jay I would assume that someone had deliberately done the redirect trick on that domain.

Why do I not believe this was done deliberately? because everyone knows about this trick now, everyone understands it's consequences, therefore there would be no real benefit from doing it. (despite Jay's "who wants to trade" line - the only practical point of such a gimmick would be to try to fool people into paying for links.)

I can imagine someone doing it just to see if the redirect trick was still fooling google, months after they claimed this was no longer a problem.

But, why you would do it on a working domain? Why wouldn't you pick a new junk domain? I know Jay has had this domain up for years.
