My sincerest recommendation is to sit down with the Beginner's Guide to SEO and read it while examining your site. It is a relatively short guide which is exceptionally helpful.
When you are finished, run through your site again this time with Google's Guidelines.
These steps will help your site's rankings improve.

Thanks Ryan,
I really appreciate the inputs. I will try to correct these problems as soon as possible.
Please keep the suggestions coming... Thanks a lot....

I would suggest there is a Panda problem with your site. You probably worked hard on the site so prepare yourself for a bit of tough love here.
The articles are absolutely spammed with your keyword.
Ensure each article uses the keyword at least once. Two to three times is great. Beyond that is completely unnecessary. Back down to only using the keyword as appropriate.
The first snippet on your home page is for a "Britney Spears Sweet Dreams" article. The snippet is only 120 words yet you repeat "Britney Spears Sweet Dreams" three times, and throw in "Sweet Dreams" a fourth time. When I click through to the actual article, it is 183 words which contains the "Sweet Dreams" phrase 8 times. It is far too spammy.
Another opportunity to improve the site is removing your footer. You have three columns of links. Perhaps they can be moved up to the sidebar. Footer links are not used frequently by your site visitors and their links are considered as lower value.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks, I have modified the thread and asked for members if they could review my website which is homeescapade.com

You are welcome to share your URL and request feedback. I would suggest doing it as a new Q&A but either way works.

Hi Ryan,
You have been a great help and inspiration to me here at Seomoz. Thank you for all the valuable answers and insights that you provide.
Is it okay if I ask the great people here at Seomoz to evaluate my website so that I may do the necessary changes to recover from google panda or site penalty?
Thanks in advance...

The last confirmed Google update was on Nov 3rd which changed rules related to query "freshness". No announcement has been made related to an update today.
On any given day various sites drop in rankings due to a variety of factors. It could be related to one of the hundreds of unnamed changes Google makes to it's ranking algorithm each year, or it could be due to other reasons.

Does having all client websites on same server/same Google Analytics red flag Google?
If you have several clients, and they are all on the same server, and also under ONE Google Analytics account, will that negatively impact with Google? They all have different content and addresses, some have the same template, but with different images.

Google does not favour php websites?
Hi there. An SEO company recently told me that google does not favour php development? This seems rather sketchy, I have not read that google doesn't favour this anywhere, did I just miss that part of SEO or are these guys blowing a little smoke?

Google Places / Google Analytics
I apologize first if this comes across as extremely novice, but I realized I really didn't know the answer and so - here I am. 🙂 Is anyone familiar with tracking google place traffic in google analytics? Is it possible? I'd love to know how many of our visitors are coming from our google place listings (we have several locations throughout the state.) Much gratitude in advance ~ Alicia
