    I had a day long downtime a 10 days ago. Now google spiders my site and instead of indexing, it is being de-indexed from 14000 to 200 pages and every time I check the GWT I discover the count has gone down. Does anybody knows what is next? Will google start indexing again after hitting zero, or will I be sandboxed? I am not worried so much about de-indexing because there is nothing I can do about it now. I want to know hwat happens next and what do I need to do to get back on track?Please help.

    this downtime period don't affect the search engine indexing or the SEO optimization of your site.

    It sure does as most of my pages are already wiped off the index. What I dont understand is why google continues to crawl my site yet the pages are not being indexed.

    Yes it can happen. If the crawler comes and your site is down and this happens not once but a number of times then it will result in the de-indexing of your site.

    the saturation of your site (number of pages that are indexed) vary and are decided by the SE's based on several factors some of which are relevant/meaningful content, hacking/malware episodes on the site and hosting errors/downtimes.

    if you feel every other department is well handled and that the only reason must be the downtime your site faced, then things should start looking better soon.
