Hey guys... I have a site that has been up for 1 year and had been getting 200-300 unique visitors a day. All SERP traffic. Everything was fine up until March 30th and when I checked statcounter on the 31st, search volume had dramatically decreased. So I first checked rankings and no where to be found. Did a "site:www.myurl.com" in G and no results were found. My site is completely gone from G for all keywords. Then I went into webmaster tools and didn't see any errors in the sitemap or robots.txt file. In the overview section it says the following: "Googlebot has successfully accessed your home page" 'Pages from your site are included in Google's index" "Pages in your Sitemap(s) are included in Google's index" The robots.txt and sitemap.xml files are still being accessed on a regular basis by G according to webmaster tools. My site shows a PR2 ranking which has gone up from the last update. I also noticed that some of my outgoing link partners (10-15 of them) have also been deindexed. What do you think could have caused this to happen? Why does everything look fine according to webmaster tools but no indexing?
I guess it about the Google Dance or the effect of recent PR update (April 2009). Mine also dip pretty seriously. From 1000 SE traffic to around 500 only...
u r banned by Google definitely...reasons may be; duplicate content excessive cross linking(in ur network of sites) excessive paid links in any case, refresh ur content get rid of link farms that u r involved in remove low quality outbound links and get rid of excessive crosslinking get few quality backlinks from trusted sources do couple of press releases emphasis on social bookmarking and best luck
