Got kicked out of Google, now what to do?

    It seems we've been banned(penalized) by Google for "spammy" comments to articles in a few blogs. Other than that, we've not done anything contrary to Google guidelines.
    How can we find out that we were banned for that reason, and how do we get reinstated?

    Do you have any PPC campaigns going on with them?

    We started a PPC campaign 3 days after the apparent ban. Why do you ask?

    You can always submit a re-inclusion request through email but you have to find a real good and valid reason to give to them, something like an assurance. Not sure how you can convince them on that.

    Email and explain what happened and ask why you were banned? Wait around a few weeks for a reply. If not call 650-253-0000 and then press 0 and try to get in contact with someone that can help you.

    You may be given another email address with a password to put in the Subject line. Try that and you might get helped.

    or

    You can also try getting in contact with your PPC Account manager.

    I hope this helps with your situation!

    Haha nevermind. Welcome to the world of seo, where algorithms change constantly and things get screwed up sometimes lol. Just give it a few weeks to settle down.

    I don't know about google guidelines, but this forum expects you not to put links in post, I guess you should wait till you get your sigs activated.
