		<description>From personal experience, there are no issues with bought sites losing pagerank or backlinks. Iâ€™ve gone so far as to change the URL structure and do a 301 redirect from url/theblog/ to url/ and still the trafficâ€™s the same.</description>

		<description>Thanks Andy and Ahmed.

Thing is, of the 11 sites on your list, 7 are directories and simple to understand how to get links from. Two are editable (wikipedia and squidoo) and one is article submittable (work). All pretty straightforward in terms of the process for getting links, and justiably can be called &#039;shortcuts&#039;.

Unless I am missing something, as far as I can tell About is neither editable by just anyone or &#039;submittable&#039; in a straightforward manner, so I was kind of wondering what it was doing on the list unless I had missed something obvious, which I often do!

Thing is, the area of About related to my &#039;niche&#039; only seem to have links to other about pages, adsense, and the odd affiliate link here and there. Not sure the best way to go about getting a link from there...contact the editor and suggest that a link to my website is what that part of About is missing? With the lack of streaightforward links on these pages, it seems a tall order. Or do they readily accept article submissions of a good quality with links external links inlcluded?

If it isn&#039;t either of these routes, it seems like almost like any other site in terms of link-getting process difficulty, and not sure then why it is on the list...? Or maybe I am missing something?

Great blog post by the way, sorry if I am picking on a small detail, just wonder if I am missing something about getting a link from About. Asides from the adding value thing, which I am all over already ;-)</description>

		<description>Andy&#039;s right - contacting the editor and showing that the page you want a link on is truly missing a valuable resource is basically what you need to do.

It&#039;s difficult for most people, although once you get the hang of it it&#039;s not that hard.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not sure of any surefire way to get a link in About.com, I&#039;m assuming you&#039;d simply need to prove value to the editor.</description>

		<description>Hi Andy,

You mentioned the possibility of getting a link from About.com in point 6 - I know how to get links from the other sites you listed there, but not about.com. You say it is tough, although you also say wikipedia is tough and I donÂ´t have too much trouble getting the odd lasting link on there.

Any tips for getting a link on about.com, Andy, or anyone else?

Thanks,

Alan</description>

		<description>Am interested in the concept that Page Rank and links are reset when a domain transfers ownership. I have always wondered this and am looking into a series of new domains for a client. Is there any hard evidence to back this up?</description>

		<description>Hello,
Buying an old site, for me anyways, seems to work for all the search engines except for Google.

According to digitalpoint and I think Matt Cutt&#039;s blog, Google resets pagerank and void all the backlinks from date of transfer. With a little creativity this can be worked around though.

Please correct me if I&#039;m wrong.</description>
