Just thought I would share a little test I did with you. I had one of my domain banned from google a couple of years ago. I decided that I was going to let the domain expire, then regerister it a few months later and see if google picks it up again as a 'NEW DOMAIN'. Well the answer is no it does not. 1 month in and the site still has not been indexed. So looks like once a domain is banned from google, then it is 'BANNED!' for life (unless you get a reinclussion request approved of course!) Hope some of you find this useful!
did you reg it in the same name / address ? did you put the same content back up (or even similar) ? Did you put it back on the same ip address ?
It doesn't make sense they would ban a domain completely because some tool decided to spam it. Did you protect the WHOIS info? I wonder if they are comparing that information to the domain. That would only make sense..
Well, you can get it unbanned if you want. Submitting a re-inclusion request will do just that: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=35843
I have had a domain get banned and I tried again a few months later and it got in with different content article.
I have experience with this, register domain that in the past banned by Google. I need some time and effort to make it indexed. No re-inclusion request, just promote it.
That is where you must be careful. You just cannot afford to be in the wrong side of Google. Big G is all important.
That's not true at all! I did a bit of blackhat on a domain for a test project to show a client what affects blackhat has and it got banned! I then forgot about the domain and then decided to build a blog on it for testing themes and it got indexed again! Just takes a while that's all!
because they added a record on their database. And the record won't change, whatever you'll try to do
I have a site banned right now and I know I could get it unbanned, so banned for life is not true at all.
I had a domain banned by google. I leave it with no site for years, and now I use it for another site, total different on different IP (same domain reg info anyway). Now google pick it back and reindexed with new content.
