Mediadonis, a German SEO of late talked about a way through which one can check if his/her site is running well, has got penalized, or banned in Google.

According to Mediadonis, “The only thing you gotta do is put “hyves” as a subdomain in front of the domain to be checked.

=> hyves.domain.com

It’s important that hyves is no existing subdomain of that particular domain, otherwise it won’t work!”
Then, look at the page rank – through a PR toolbar for the page and you will get one of the following three results-

PR7 means that the domain is running well!
PR4 means, the domain got personalized by Google!
PR0 means that the domain got banned in Google!
