I was looking at this website other day: www.matieventi.com
Using Google toolbar I saw its HOME PAGE has a Google PR of 3, and its SERVIZI page (www.matieventi.com/exclusive-mati/) PR is 2. Nothing interesting about this.
Then I looked at the other main pages (Contatti, Hotels, etc) and surprisingly their PR was all 0 (Google toolbar shows grey bar 'No PageRank info' at all).
- I thought: "well, they probably used nofollow/noindex to sculpt PR for those pages", but nothing, there is no nofollow/noindex in the source code of all pages.
- I thought: "well probably links to those pages are not visible in source code, coz' created with some tricky Javascript", but nothing, links to those pages are visible with a clear written link in source code.
I thought: "well they probably removed those pages using robots.txt", but nothing www.matieventi.com/robots.txt allows everything. Moreover those pages are indexed in Google (for instance searching in Google for page 'Preventivi' shows that page is indexed).
Do you think they did some PR scuplting in order to obtain this?
Do you have an idea of what they did to obtain this?
P.S. plz avoid answers in the form: "you should not scuplt PR because this and that, blah, blah, ...", I know what Matt Cutts says on his blog, but I still see many people sculpting it at least for some pages, and Matt Cutts himself suggests to sculpt it for instance to avoid PR flow to a CART page in any ecommerce site, so it's not that clear. Anyway I'm not interested in these type of discussion/suggestions.
Thanks,
