    Can anyone review my site and tell me what is wrong with it, basically I was hit with thin content action by Google last month which was surprising to me since all of the articles were original and between 500- 1000 words at the time so like any other webmaster I cleaned the site and basically removed all content even the affiliation banners I had (2 of them) and applied for reconsideration but has been reject every time I applied so I'm kind of lost. I wish Google would be more specified and tell me what is wrong

    Hi, are you talking about Google AdSense program or just Google search engine?

    Move onto another domain.

    Sometimes it's very difficult to fully recover after the penalty and it could
    take ages for Google to treat your reconsideration request even when it's
    approved.

    You have two articles and little else, the articles are your main content but supplementary content also counts, other pages, a contact page, about me page, navigation etc.

    I did say that I've removed almost all of the content and most pages because I was not sure which one triggered the manual action.

    This is the message I'm referring too:
    “Thin content with little or no added value
    This site appears to contain a significant percentage of low-quality or shallow pages which do not provide users with much added value (such as thin affiliate pages, cookie-cutter sites, doorway pages, automatically generated content, or copied content”

    Honestly, I would say move away from that domain and also for the future, move away from any .info extensions. I try and avoid them as a user myself

    Reading the name - "i-blogger" first it seems it would be an Apple site where everything is with an "i" as precedence. But, I was wrong about it. It is a blogger site providing cool tips regarding blogging. I love the url and the title. That made me say WOW. I'm sorry for what Google did to you. Nothing is wrong with your site. The content is quite well written and it has a clear tone. I found it worth reading. Keep blogging. And yes cool theme. White is a sign on positivity and professionalism. Keep the good work up. Good luck. :)

    I think your site seems too much a standard template with no custom changes and design ideas. The articles can be good but the first idea when looking at your website is that it's not a real website. You just need to choose more colors and add graphics and it will be great.
