Please help - legit site dropped from Google

    I have been dropped from Google - no reason apparently and I don't do anything intentionally wrong. Here is my site: http://www.hoopsavenue.com

    It's been in Google for 7 years. I submitted a reinclusion request. They said I was "cloaking" in the message, but I have never attempted such a thing.

    Please help!

    Thoroughly check your code to ensure there is nothing that makes the site display differently for a person and search engine spider. Your site could've been hacked without you knowing it.

    Have you changed anything at all in the last month?

    I haven't changed anything the last month and I have no idea what could be wrong. There's nothing even remotely dodgy that I do.

    What is the difference???

    The layout is slightly messed up in the search engine version, but there is nothing I can really change. It's not like anything is hidden.

    What made you think that your site is dropped from google?

    do a google search for site:hoopsavenue.com

    maybe u lost rankings for some reasons, but i don't think its dropped, also i don't think its cloaked.

    Sometimes just a minor error in the code, could hurt your rankings, clean up your code, have a sitemap, and use google webmasters tools
