Tip #1 - LinksWhat to look for when buying a site?
There are a few other factors to look at before buying a site;1. Domain Age – 2 years min. unless other factors outweigh this2. Page Rank – yes it does matter when buying a site because it
represents G-Trust3. Number of existing back links4. Quality of those back links and are they to any deep pages?5. How many pages are indexed with Google?6. Install McAfee Site Inspector on your computer. It will flag any issues
to do with bad history, malware or any one of many other problems7. Will the BL’s stay in place once bought?8. Other pluses are host location vs. target location, the number of
registrants of the domain, DMOZ listing and rankings. If it’s a forum, the number of active members and recent posts are important.
9. Check Wayback.org for historical content & DomainTools10. Check ValidRank.com for fake Page Rank

IMPORTANT Things to Remember!
• To target a language using only subdirectories do not use geographic targeting• You can target a language with both subdomains and subdirectories but if you have a top-level TLD (.com) use subdirectories versus subdomains.• You can use Google geographical targeting on subdomains and subdirectories• Your title should be in the native language and/or use regional slang terms where they apply.• Use language-based meta tags whenever targeting language-based searches• Host subdomains that are for geographical targeting in the target region • When you implement the subdomain strategy, link to it from the original website• Create new sitemaps for each subdomain • When creating meta tags and content be sure to use native slang. • Get back links from same TLD's (get a .nl link to your .nl site in the native language)• If you have a TLD (like .nl or .de) do not use geographical targeting. These domains are already associated with its designated region
