Just need some ideas on why. I some, but not sure if it would result in a ban. site: www.cursors-4u.com 1) I have two domains, they are parked 2) I have a linkback when someone uses the cursors 3) My site was down two days, about 3 days ago, and I redirected my traffic to cursormania 4) Recently changed all my url's to something more friendly I know I didn't break any rules regarding cloaking. I'm thinking duplicate content maybe because of the domain parking? Also i had the site for like 3 years...almost 4. Is site:cursors-4u.com suppose to work though? Cuz it does for me. Also one more thing. I have my files setup at www.cur.cursors-4u.net I have an index.html file that automatically redirects users to www.cursors-4u.com It uses meta redirect. Is it possible that's why I got banned? Redirecting to my own site...is that bad? Also is it possible that having a bad .htaccess file could have gotten me ban? Edit: Also funny thing I got PR on some of my subdirectories still, but my homepage is definitely not in the SERP
well the good news is your not banned from Google this can be seen just by searching your domain name. I also see you have site links. the bad news is you have a PR of 0 "and the tool bar is not grayed also stating no ban" Lastly I see you have a PR of 3 for cursors-4u.com/anime/ the PR 0 on your main page should come back during the next PR update and this is a short term thing. I would say the redirect and URL changes on top of one another would be the cause. But it could be the code errors. Open your page and view the source code. now scroll down to the bottom. the </body> and </html> do not show in purple like all the other tags. When I run your page on W3C it came back with 228 Errors, 2 warning(s) I would fix the errors mainly the /body and /html then I would change your sitemap "sitemap/0.84" Google adheres to 0.90 protocol not .84 You need to add a !DOCtype to your sitemap.
