Yes, Pakistan is undergoing tough economic conditions, no doubt about that. But we didn’t know that Government of Pakistan, and Ministry of Finance in specific, will get this serious in raising funds that it will start selling (high page rank, .GOV domain, extremely valuable) links to webmasters so openly.
This might sound sarcastic to you, but this is happening in real, no jokes.
http://www.mtbfpakistan.gov.pk/ has sold four outbound links already. Go and check its footer yourself. Even worse, these links include Po*n and Viagra products, a shame for a government website to even have such words on its homepage.
Only a person with SEO expertise will understand the (search engine ranking) juice a government website with such high page rank can bring to his/her website. These are usually very lucrative links but the problem is that these government (of Pakistan) domains are official properties and no one should be able to sell links on these domains.
We are assuming that these outbound links aren’t sold officially and the money isn’t sent to national exchequer.
It appears that the webmaster is making extra bucks through sale of links on these government websites. Technically speaking, this is a chargeable and heinous offense.
We have said this before and I will repeat it again: Its time for the government of Pakistan to get real professionals to manage its web presence. Its now or never situation for them. Allah save our country!
Thanks Salman Baig for tipping us on this. Salman was offered a link too, on which he chose to report it instead of buying such valuable link.
Update: October 20th, 2012
mtbfpakistan.gov.pk is down now and giving 403 error.
Update: October 23rd, 2012
mtbfpakistan.gov.pk is back live now and external links, mentioned above, have been removed.
Actually government of Pakistan needs some professionals in Gov. All those current illiterate idiots know flying MOnkey about this stuff .. so people are taking full benefit..
Actually a government-developer can do this. No one have access of this website,
Not only ministry of finance, there are a lot of others as well. I did some research on gov. sites backlinks and posted the results here: http://i.com.pk/government-website-backlinks-pakistan
Again these are just a few of them, if you need the full list gov sites back linking to other websites, let me know ;-)
an other shameful act by Government
Can be a hacker?
Nope! go through the post properly
Look at the extra space entered so no can really crawl that far below and the titsy bitsy small font effort makes it even smaller and harder to find but people with SEO eyes will easily track them.
WE SHOULD REPORT TO PTA…
What PTA???. This is all happening under the safest umbrella of PTA my dear.
:( I clicked promo but opened porn site:( shame on You Paki Govrment
OMG, they are selling hot stuff lolzzz
I think its not directly from Govt, its probably from the web master of the website or hosting company who could have access to this site and know about selling links.
I don’t think so Links are sold …. Just check this post that how easily acquire backlinks from Pakistan’s GOV websites:
http://i.com.pk/government-website-backlinks-pakistan
It might be because of FREE template / module / plugin utilization by the developers and software house who doesn’t aware the GOV link cost!
whoever did this, it is so shameful
Looks like site designer copy the template from some other site and forgot to remove the copyrights statement from the index page. He did remove it from other pages though :-)
baat ka ba-tan-ger banana koi Amir se seekhay :-)
We have screenshot with us of the email from webmaster offering Links on homepage of this website.
He is sending same offer to other members of DP forum.
I can confirm that we didn’t make this story out of nothing.
ok if you say so :-)
kiyun ji sorry nahi bolo gay Aamir bahi ko?
nahi ji nahi boloon ga :-)
jub amir mera comment publish na ker ke sorry nahi bolta to main qu boloon :-) aik bar main ne aik comment kia jis se show hota tha ke propakistani ki reporting reliable nahi hai , to mera comment publish nahi howa :-)
anyway, I still think ke having screen shots do not prove any thing :-)
I second you Anas. Propakistani should have been unbiased for negative comments as well. Things get more polished after having criticized.
I don’t think so links are sold there are a lot of GOV websites having loopholes due to utilization of FREE templates / CMS by the software houses and developers.
Its Not…………
YouTube Is Also Working In Pakistan For NEWS CHANNELS To Upload Their Videos.
It Can Be Acessable With Direct YoutTube Link:
https://www.YouTube.com/
Copy This Link And Try To See…
Don’t Forget To Place ” HTTPS:// ” Before Link.
It can only be accessed via “HTTPS” my dear, videos wont play, at least that’s what I’ve experienced so far on most of the ISPs. Concerning News Channels, they usually use VPN tunnels to access blocked content.
and it’s a shame that those news channels are doing that when it was blocked officially.
Thanks alot sir for posting this.
This is a extremely shameful act for us that a out-sider is selling a link on our “Government” Website. Pakistani government have to be serious about his issue.
Salman :) ROCKPAKI Ka link nahi nazar aarha ider :) ?
@facebook-100000039870255:disqus : Bro ye serious news thi to mene uska nae kaha :p next time zarur :)

idiots
جب انسان کو ہاتھ پلانے کی عادت ہوجائے نا تو پھر ایسا ہی ہوتا پاکستانی سیاست دانوں نے قوم کی عزت تک بیچ ڈالی ہے یہ حرام خور فضلہ خوری کے عادی ہوچکے ہیں ان کے جنتے بڑے جرائم ہیں ان کے سامنے تو یہ جرم نہایت معمولی سا ہے
بھائی یہ حرام خوری تو سنا تھا لیکن یہ فضلہ خوری کیا بلا ہے؟

The least that you can expect!!!!

It was hard to believe news… But when I opened the site http://www.mtbfpakistan.gov.pk/ and then clicked the p**n link, I was almost dead with shame to call myself a Pakistani. What a shame earned for the people of Pakistan by this this ba****d bar**g D*g A**f Z**ri and his Re**n Ma**k. Shame Shame Shame.
