I have to say I am pis*ed that I am being robbed of my pagerank!!!!! because on my website if you go to http://www.p-lance.com/forum you will either be redirected to http://www.p-lance.com/forum/ or http://p-lance.com/forum and both of these have 0 pr while http://www.p-lance.com/forum has a pr of 3. Most people that I request link exchanges with turn me down because of my pr of 0. Does anyone know how I can make it stay at http://www.p-lance.com/forum instead of the others.

I already submitted to tons of directories which gave me the pr of 3 and most of them I cannot modify!! I was julted with anger after finding that out. If anyone has a solution or a similar situation please inform me.

Huh? The first two urls in the above quote are the same, so why do you say "redirected to"?

Then you say two urls have a PR0, but you end by saying that one of them has the PR3.

Sorry, maybe it's just me. Could you state your situation more clearly please?

Sorry I wrote it quickly becasue I was very angry. But if you notice http://www.p-lance.com/forum does not include the end backslash. If you click on it, it redirects you to the backslash. But http://www.p-lance.com/forum has a pr of 3 while http://www.p-lance.com/forum/ has a pr of 0

Ah. I think that must be the web server software that your host is running, apache or whatever, placing the / at the end of 'forum'.

I'd contact them about it and if they can't fix it, I'd move to another host or I'd forget the current PR3 and start using /forum/ in future links.

I know you feel it would kill you to give up the PR3, but, PR3 is not all that difficult to attain again. Better to do something now than wait til you have a PR6 and have to deal with the situation.

Ya thanks for the advice. I did contact them and they said they could do nothing Guess I will just have to deal with it.
