Hello All, Three months ago my website keywords are ranking in 1st and 2nd pages in Google. But in starting of October month I lost my website ranking and their most keywords are not in searches now. Is that Google is penalizing my site? If yes then how can I check it in Google webmaster tool? Please help me to sort out this issue. Regards, Sandy
Google Analytics is the best place to review. On the dashboard graph of your website a sudden drop from your regular traffic will be shown it's a major sign. Check all your backlinks, add no follow wherever you find suspicious. Write unique content don't duplicate, no keyword spamming etc.
I found the following text from rainbodesign.com: Check the "site:" command and see if Google says it has no information on a site Check the "link:" command and see if Google shows no links Search on the domain name in Google. If the site: and link: operator searches show no results, then it's almost certain that you site has been banned. If your site doesn't appear at all or ranks poorly in the search for its domain name, but the site: operator shows some pages in the index, that's good evidence that the site has been penalized. I hope that helps
