    Hello,

    My computer recently crashed and as a result I was unable to log into my hosting account and consequently as a result of inactivity they deleted my account.

    My question is this - if I upload my site again , willl I need to start from scratch ie: gain all my backlinks ( I had a few thousand and PR1) again and resubmit my site to search engines. Or will I retain those backlinks and will my site still be indexed in google, yahoo etc?

    Thank You

    whoaa.. that sucks..

    if the domain name is the same, and the structure identical (i.e.; all the old links still work) then you should be right back where you were.
    IF anything is significantly different, then it may not be a happy story.

    What kind of host were you using? I am guessing it was a free service, so maybe you got what you paid for?

    If they deleted it and say BAD bye to it. Get a new host.

    If it is the same domain name you should be ok because the se's will recognize your site.
