    Maybe backlinks you got have been devalued.

    Hello,
    Brett Gian, I know maybe you have not paid links in your site, but if Google said, yes you can, and they want to take out of Google, they can :(

    I think right now google going for big changes in PR Stretegy and Ranking Stretagy. As you know that this year google added so many features in Google Webmaster tools and also making somany changes like lable of supplemental index removed, make changes in adesense and also make change in adwords and also that for reciprocal links now we need execessive links. So i think google going for big update.:(

    I think you're wrong, I think people that have gathered up to many links are the ones being penalized, I don't know for certain that noone not buying links has been penalized, but there are some pretty compelling stories.

    yes they have started penalising sites with paid links.


    Even if you have purchased a paid link rest assured big G would be penalising you

    What I'm saying thuogh, is that in some cases Google was wrong. I buy and sell, and in my industry I have a decent idea who else buys and sells ;) Some buyers went up, some that don't buy or sell went down. Maybe it's another algo change, or maybe (as mentioned in anther thread here) they lost value due to their own inner site linking between sites that one owner owns.

    I don't 'think' it has been changed. One of my sites was ranking at #7 for a major keyword.

    Went off the rankings and stayed at #384 for TWO bloody months.

    Came back RIGHT UP to #7 just last week.

    So there ;)
