    Background:

    My friend has blog with 3500 posts which was highly ranked in google. Due to some issues his domain was completely de-indexed by Google on sep-2. Now he acquired 6 month old domain and want his content (i,e 3500 blog posts).

    Now i set up everything, DB and code are ready for new domain. I am just wondering what will be Google's reaction if we suddenly shows 3500 posts in single shot. Advice me please.

    Thanks in advance

    I would have found why the old site was de-indexed, and fixed that, rather than move to a new domain.

    It would seem a bit artificial to post 3500 blog posts at once. Hard to say how Google will see things though.

    I have a feeling that you'll not get the results you want. Google likes new content, so unless these 3,500 articles are followed up with new ones daily, that's probably not a good move. Aside from that, I believe Google puts forth so much resources to each site when crawling, a lot of the content could get overlooked if it's all added at once.

    Its unfixable once your domain has been ban or penalized by Google. No way you can tell them your side of view. Anyway my friend some automated query to Google, that triggers the de-index

    Actually anything is fixable. I have had 100,000 canadian pharmacy site that was banned a few years ago, reincluded after following Googles instructions.

    You can find more information here

    And there is not automated query that will get a site de-indexed.

    Instead of guessing at what happened to their site, your friend might be better served hiring a forensic SEO.
