The Chinese Site With Highest PageRank
Which Chinese website has the most inbound links and highest PageRank? South News got the answer (in translation):
The PageRank of the homepage of largest portals like Sina, Netease, Sohu and QQ is mostly 6 or 7. People.com.cn, an authoritative website under the People's Daily, has only a PageRank of 8.
http://www.miibeian.gov.cn has not been updated for long periods of time. The site would hardly win a beauty contest. However, it has a PageRank of 9 - the highest in China.
It is not difficult to see the reason: that is the homepage of the Beian (licence) system of the Ministry of Information Industry. He who wants to provide internet-related services [e.g. putting up a corporate website] in China must Beian (get a licence). He must then place a link on his web page to the MII Beian website.
Google says "PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web" and "Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote" - alas, we all know what democracy and vote mean in China.
I sure wish I could see how this site was optimized!

Now this is the holy grail of the internet. A low-maintenance site with high PR.
