Cant figure out why Google hates my site

    Ok I recently revamped the SEO for this site

    MSN and yahoo have all my kewords in first page or within the first 3 pages

    Google however, nothing not even in top 20 pages

    why the big difference?

    how do we tell if Google doesnt like the site or it has been banned

    we dont even show up for the URL title or which is the name of the product

    Is your site indexed at least?

    Were you ranking before the revamp?

    What kind of competition does the keyword have?

    Does it have any bad history?

    I don't think it is the site in your signature ( that site does rank for its title)

    There is no definitive way to see if you have been banned but not coming up for the url title is a good sign you've done something wrong. Read their guidelines www<dot>google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=35769. If you have followed all the guidelines then try filling out the Google site reconsideration form.

    It certainly appears that Google does not like very you much at this moment.

    Was it ever ranking for the term? The domain has been regged since 2003, which is why I ask this question.

    Have you done something that has violated their webmaster guidelines?

    If the answer to question number two is yes, since when have you been noticing a change? If it is something recent, give it a bit of time.

    Google is pretty smart at figuring out artificial linking schemes and Google does not put near as much emphasis on anchor text keyword links as people believe.

    no black hat

    no seo was ever done until i got there

    i got the site ranking on yahoo and msn within 3 months except Google

    the industry we are in is not looked favorably and it is full of affiliate links is that one reason

    are all the affiliate links "nofollow"? Google is very strict when comes to using nofollow in affiliate links.

    Google does index the site you mention, so its not banned. Maybe the keyword youre targetting is very competitive, as I'm sure most of pharma keywords are.
