Hello! All: I have a website which have been running for 8 months. Due to the poor service of my hosting company, a couple of weeks ago, they mis-redirected my site to a totally ir-relevant site (toy car) for 1 day. During this day, I have successfully changed my hosting company to Siteground, a more reliable more. However, later I found in Google Webmaster tool, all the records of my external links disppeared. Although I believe Google will re-index my site, my question is: does this accident affect the PR and SERP of my site? Thanks a lot in advance
What is your site URL? I can example the indexed data and see if it has changed. I wouldn't worry about it to much, if your PR and SERPs haven't changed by now you got nothing to worry about. Things to do just incase... 1. Create a new XML sitemap. 2. Put a link to this sitemap on your homepage. (the bottom is fine) 3. Create a robots.txt file pointing to the xml sitemap file. 4. Re-submit your sitemap in google webmasters central. You might want to review my guide I wrote on DP at the URL below.. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=524797
