    Hi, some time in 2004 I started dabbling around with sites. I created a few sites based on some little research I made back then. Since then I have had very little time to upgrade, improve or keep myself updated of the latest changes. For years one of my sites has kept its main keyword in the top ten resulting in a few hundred dollars of income per month. As of the last 8 days or so, the sites ranking for this keyword and others has completely dissappeared off google. I am at a loss as to what happened but obviously wish to fix this. I do not wish to divuldge the domain name on a public forum but if you think you can help me figure whats wrong and how to fix it please pm me for the site url. I would also be willing to pay for the service although free advice is always welcome :)

    Many people are facing the same problem as you due to Google Penguin update. You need to do white hat SEO techniques to your website. Mostly "exact match domain" are starting to vanish in first page of Google.
