Newbie question

    My site was ranked Google SERPs #2 for one particular keyword, but then i foolishy paid for 20 asian .edu profile backlinks. I also submitted my URL to over 30 directories in 1 day (assuming that they would then be added over a period of time). I also pinged my site twice in 3 days.

    My site is 1 week old. Now despite having unique content (500 words) plus adsense, i believe i have been sandboxed as my site has completely dissapeared from the affore mentioned keyword SERPs.

    Could someone please tell me, will my site ever re-capture its ranking ? Is there anything i can do to solve the problem ?

    Thanks greatly for any advice given ..........

    did you diversify the anchor links from these .edu profile links?

    if you did remove those links asap

    if you didnt then try changing them so its like

    40% generic e.g "click here" "visit this site"
    20% brand names eg "my website" "www.mywebsite.com"
    40% keywords that you want to rank for eg "fake watches" "replica watches"

    The answer to this question is very simple: YOUR SITE IS ONLY ONE WEEK OLD! The ranking of 2 you just got was only temporary. Do not worry though. Your ranking will eventually return in the next 2-6 months. In the mean time you can follow stephen87's advice (the post above mine).
