How do you figure you were banned? I don't see any indicators that you were. The newer site does not have a PR, but it does have one indexed page. Other one has a PR of 1 and about 500+ indexed pages. If you were to get banned you would be removed from the index all together.
i just wanted to know in general ....have heard of people saying they got banned by Google thats why i asked this question
It definitely happens...I had sites "banned" for a month or so and then all of a sudden it showed up again. The googlebot was going to the site everyday but it was not indexed. I was not doing anything weird with the domain except building backlinks.
I am guessing you meant ban. Google will ban any site that it feels either A) violates their terms of service (TOS) or B) adversely (negatively) affects their customers or audience or the overall user experience. There could be numerous (millions) of reasons why they would ban a site and there is no way of telling for sure.
Google will ban those website who will violate the some parameter which google instructed to all user of websites, so everybody should follow this parameter of google.
Google bans sites for involving in illegal activities which violates the Google TOS like duplicate content ,spamming while doing link building & many other reasons which are not fully disclosed by Google.
Come on guys ! IT's very simple , why google banns sites? Google is search engine, and committed to serve best suitable, informative, and relevant results. So naturally it has to ban any duplicate, spam, not informative content sites. Google also bans sites, which tries to fool Google bots using blackhat seo tricks.
Basickno - your'e right! Thanks for the tips also, Google ban sites because of SPAM links that looks unnatural by google's eye.
Ha! Good joke - since when did Google turn to nanny? Thats not true - do anything against Google's TOS - black hat, spamming, etc and you get dropped from Google,
google have some rules and regulations if the content of the sites is not upto to the google then that site can be blocked by google means that if the content is copied from other site
You will know right away if Google decides to ban you! Also they are sometimes nice enough to give you heads up and let you know some of the reasons why they are going to do this! Most of the time they will give you a chance to clean up your act.
