    Okay guys, I'm very p**sed of now!!! :mad:

    They just demoted my pagerank from 3 to 0.

    How the heck am I gonna sell this thing now?

    It is 141k alexa, it was very close to being 100k which was when I was gonna sell.

    NOW IT IS USELESS Argg!

    I probably can't even get $100 for this now. Thanks google. Thanks a bundle.

    So keep it... Sell another if your desperate for cash ;)

    Umm stupid question but was this a dropped domain and you decided to buy it and make a directory?

    UPDATE:

    Pfffft thats what you did.... http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://educ4life.org

    You bought a domain just cause it had PR on it then you immediately made a directory and made it
    FREE (or bought traffic hits 10,000 for $5 bucks) so that your alexa ranking would be low so
    you could sell it at sitepoint or here cause it had low Alexa and PR2-3 and you could get a few hundred
    bucks for 1 month investment of less then $15 bucks (domain $10 + $5 traffic Hits) as well as make a
    few bucks off the cheap featured links before you sold it...

    ONLY thing thing is that google caught ya before ya had a chance to sell to an unsuspecting webmaster/buyer
    with inflated awstats and PR that would drop becuase you neglected to build the sites backlinks.

    thx

    My sites seem to be stable now. Albeit several pages below what they were with everyone and their sister suddenly ranking above me. Very annoying. :rolleyes:

    Well the reason i put ya on front street is becuase you should have known better then to do what ya did (whether intentional or not)
    as a few people started spreading "rumors" in this thread about link lists, directories, article directories being the cause of the "problem"
    without even looking and trying to get facts about the specific site in question and people start believing bullsh*t rumors which hurts
    Every & ALL directory owners whom work hard at what they do for a living.

    Ive been a directory owner for a few years now and have invested Alot of time and money and wont hesitate to post a
    comment in anyone's 4 Sale thread if i see something "shady" going on whether HERE or at Sitepoint regarding a directory.


    thx

    i think that for temporary changes done by Google,for now stick on your SEO strategy and keep the analytic active .see what happen after next 1 months
