all right ... for those of you who think google de-listed your site and you have a wordpress site... CHECK YOUR OLD PLUGINS FIRST. for this example... you see I used to use the REDIRECTION plugin for WP but is SUCKED and didnt do its job the way I needed it to, so I deleted it... WELL ! it didnt delete out of the MySQL database... and i think since it was mad that I thought the plugin was GARBAGE ! it decided to "F" my website up ! I CANT BELIEVE THIS IS WHAT IT IS... but I am banking BIG on that is what it was ! Well i will see in a month or so LOL
Check your .htaccess file thoroughly for any RedirectRules that might be causing this type of behavior with google webmaster tools.
I agree with Traffic-Bug...go through your .htaccess file to ensure nothing new has been added by one of your plugins
Hey thanks you guys for the great responses but i have fixed it. IT WAS THE REDIRECTION PLUGIN - after i deleted the plugin, it deleted the files but it "F" something up in the MySQL database and i really dont know the rest. But a simple deletion of MySQL database tables resolved my YEAR LONG issue of being "de-listed" OH MY G! Thanks for everyones help !
