    Hi,

    I would be greatful if i could get some help, my site www.learningsteps.com was hacked, all of a sudden i noticed my serps was completely destroyed, rankings everything, after last update i could not find my site. Then i noticed hundreds of porn links at the end of my site, they where hidden.

    Unfortunately i had no backup due to hardware failure on my laptop (i know i am silly and should of had more than one backup).

    So basically i have had to start from scratch so i went about build a new frontend, not as nice as the last one but still its ok.

    Unfortunately my serps for keywords like computer training, online training etc are gone. What can i do. I have spent a good while now trying to build this backup, but google does not seem to acknowledge this.

    (1) Now i am wondering is my site banned for something
    (2) Does my site have major SEO problems that i am missing

    Any help would be much appreciated. My site is still listed in all the major directories and loads of quality links.

    Please help.

    Kindest Regards
    Fergal.

    does ur site has any forum installed? the same thing happened to one of my site once, some javascripts pointing to some russian sites were automatically appended to each of my webpage, later it was discovered that the loophole was my old version of phpbb .... so chk if u have such loopholes to prevent such problems in future ....

    yes thought that might be it, i removed all forums etc, changed passwords and reviewed everything. However still 3 months on google has still not given my site any leeway, i have tried so much to try and get this new site back to where it was.


    can anyone help.

    thanks

    have u check last cache copy of your page in google.com, if google not take update of your page, u can still copy seo tags from cached page and update in new page
