    for me google is acting strange too.. a few weeks ago started to deindex some pages, and got from 600 down to 150...
    now is adding pages again, and today jumped from 350 to 990 on some datacenters..

    It is a tough old street the net ................. and some things happen that annoy you, just keeping working away and in the end you will be successful

    We have sites too, that have had the same experience

    Google data delay very often...
    example: some March 2006 websites cache become today's index.
    May be it just because delay again...

    They'd just tell you, "Inclusion is not a right". :rolleyes:

    How about a url so that we can see if it is site specific or an overall Google problem?

    This happens a lot to new sites. Those which are a bit older tend to enjoy a bit more status. It's almost as if google is testing to see if you're serious about your website or not.

    Not funny though esp if you've been generating some healthy income from it. It happened to one of my sites way back in March when they dropped all pages except my index

    I emailed google and they re-indexed most of the pages - but in June!! Don't even know if it was due to my email.

    I not it is not a site specific problem. In a years time I didn't have this, but then BigDaddy and now what ever it going on. They left up all my free sites where I am selling domains and they still come up under the keyword phrases I wanted. For example, http://HummerofSarasota.com

    Google is not the same as it was a year ago... BigDaddy was a huge change.

    Interesting, though, that GoDaddy's header ad only shows on the www version, but Google is indexing only the non-www, and it shows the header in the cache...

    That used to be the case , now it seems everyone is targeted unless of course you are a authorative site, then if they break you they do there damdest to repair you. I have literally abandoned a site, and concentrating on my new ones. . not good but hey

    It's not just you, a number of us who got caught in the June 27th debacle, but then recovered, woke up this morning to find we'd disappeared from the index again...

    Ppl, before panicking, try checking your site from a different data centre. There may be a problem in 1 datacentre which is causing pages to drop from index

    Thanks, but when ALL of your traffic drys up at once its not likely to be a Data Center problem, is it?

    On June 27th, 2 of my sites dropped from having 3000+ pages to 1-2 pages. Today I noticed one site has 3700 pages, and the other has 680 pages. All but one are supplemental results for some reason, but it's definitely a step in the right direction!

    It's really odd what's going on.. Even on my main site, if I do a site:, the whole first page is supplemental results with caches from last year. All of the pages are current and unique. I have no idea what the hell those idiots are doing over there, but it's really affecting our sales in a bad way. :(

    Today our site recovered 100% from the June 27th problem. We didn't recover on July 27th like other sites did so this is a huge relief, though I know it can just as easily go wrong again in a few weeks.

    I have been having the same issue with google...I had 5,000 pages of my site indexed (http://www.planjam.com) and after July 27th, the count went down to about 50. Today I got 900 pages back but each was put into supplemental. I know that its not a crawl issue because the pages have been indexed before and Yahoo is actually starting to pick my pages up (they are at about 350).

    Is this something that will eventually come back or should I be worried?
