    My website was ranked number one for nearly every keyword in my niche such as wheels and tires, chrome wheels, rims, custom wheels etc. and i was getting around 1500 unique visitors daily. My ranking started gradually falling around January and then end of February just totally fell off back to pages 6-10 for every keyword. I am now under a hundred visiors daily. It seemed with the timing that this was due to the new panda update. I went through every link and removed any links I though could cause this. I then resubmitted for reconsideration. A week later I received a message back stating my site had not been penalized for any spam and gave me a list of other possibilities such as crawl errors. So i went through my webmaster area and I noticed I had over 5,000 "not found" crawl errors however these errors seem to be from old links and shouldn't be the reason for such a huge drop as google will just neglect them. Nothing has recently changed on my site. It's still the same content put on when the site was created. I also submitted my site for reconsideration after i got rid of some blogroll links i thought could cause this however google responded stating they had not penalized me at all. I am completely lost here with this and nobody seems to know what could cause this. Please help me out!!!
