Website dissapeared out of Google
-
Hi Everyone,
About 2 months ago i launched a website called http://spelenroulette.nl, i did some linkbuilding for this website in the meantime with other roulette/gaming related websites and the website got a bit up in Google.
But when i was checking my rankings today the frontpage of this website doesn't show up on the first 80 pages? Only some subpages are still on the same positions.
Could this be for a rank-update like these happens all the time and your site dissapears from Google for several days, or could this be because of wrong/too many backlinks or something completely different?
Regards,
Yannick

How long could it take then till my site gets back in google because of these 2 penalized links?
-
Ah, certainly interested.
Yup, I would absolutely email them to remove those links. If there's any risk whatsoever, I would ask for the links to be removed.
-
I checked for the sitename in Google(And they didn't have common names like my websites, but something weird), and i can't find this website in Google anymore, some of it's subpages still exist, but the page where i have a link has dissapeared.

How can you tell that these two websites have a penalty now?
-
I was checking several links wich were placed on several niche-related websites, but 2 of these website which didn't have a penalty during the link placement, have a penalty now as far as i can see.
Should i wait for another week, or mail these webmasters if they want to remove my link?

There are a lot of reasons why a site might drop in rank. The number is higher for newer sites because a site can often rank well after launch and then become weighted down to a "real" number. Another possibility is a temporary shift in your site rank. I've seen sites inexplicably drop (i.e. no recent SEO activity) and then come right back in a weeks time.
Your site's not been de-indexed. Keep doing proper SEO and you should come back up.

Actually, I've had the same sort of experience over the past 48 hours with one of my websites - it has completely disappeared from Google over the past 48 hours.
I suspect it is indeed another algorithm change that has affected the website, however, my recommendation is that you continue to add links, add high quality and unique content, etc. Just because it dropped now doesn't mean that it won't come back.
On some of my websites, I've seen the rankings disappear, and when it comes back, it's in the top 15 results - which is great.
Keep SEOing and don't lose hope.

Thanks for your answer,
I launched this website a month ago i just checked, wrote several site-related articles and update the website each 3 days with a new newsarticle.
So it surprised me that only the frontpage dissapeared from google, and not the subpages.
I don't believe the Google search for links, when you use linkcommand you'll see several links, one of those links is unrelated to the site and i just mailed the website if they wanted to remove that link. Other websites which link towards me are related to my niche.
My linkbuilding style was contacting other webmasters and passing content if they wanted to place that with a link towards my website included, made some Social Media accounts for the website and that was about it, not really special. I think there are only 10 new links since the launch of this website, that shouldn't be too much in only a month time?

Not coming up for a term that is within your domain is not a good sign:
http://www.google.nl/search?q=spelenroulette&pws=0At this point I am thinkiing penalty or ban, however ban is not the case as you still rank for an exact domain search:
http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=spelenroulette.nlOnly 11 pages on the site (or indexed):
http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=site%3Aspelenroulette.nlYour site seems pretty poor in content and purpose so it could be an algorithmically assigned penalty. The thing is that my dutch is not that great so I cannot evaluate (I am also not sure if the new algo applies to Holland yet).
Link command shows no links:
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=link%3Aspelenroulette.nlYou're in a very spammy niche and I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of filter or penalty applied.
Search for: "spelenroulette.nl" -site:spelenroulette.nl brings 37 instances where your domain was mentioned (or perhaps linked) and they don't seem that flashy.
What was your link building style?

To know effect on our Website rank in Google Search results
Ours is Property Advertising Company. And we have agents and consultants working from other areas in providing property for advertising in our website. So we collect all the data (5000 data nearly) and upload in one stretch directly to our database. I would like to know whether this process will affect our ranking in google search results because when we upload 5000 data, the links in our website also increases.

Brand new website, should I nofollow almost all internal links?
Hi, As I am creating a completely new website for my employer (she will have zero incoming links, even the URL will be different), would it be advantageous to allow follows to the other internal pages from the home page, but disallow follows on all other internal links on each subsequent page? So, for example each page will have this many internal links: Home page: 5 (all 5 service pages) Recruiting: 1 (home link) Services: 1 (home link) Talent Assessment: 1 (home link) etc. Does this make sense to bolster the home page until we can get some links coming in?

Duplicate Website.. Please Help!
Hi, My Client's Website has been duplicated, exactly the same website theme and etc. It's like a mirror site and my client couldn't figure out who duplicated his website. Actually, it has been hit by Penguin update last May and didn't fully recover yet, because of unnatural links but there's a little improvement with its ranking. I have already fix the keyword stuffed from his homepage with a link to it and the footer links. After fixing it about a week, its ranking is moving up a bit from page 14 to page 8 but it's not stable. Sometimes it go back to page 10 then back to 8. But there still a lot of unnatural links pointing to his website using its targeted keywords to much. I guess the main issue here are the duplicate site and unnatural links pointing to his website. By the way, here's the original site of my client www.apparelus.com and here's the duplicate one www.fs-biz.info/ Thanks!

Google and low quality guest posts
In the aftermath of the Penguin and Panda monsters a lot of blog networks seem to have been devalued by Google. It seems logical that spammers will flock to low quality guest posting next. How do you think Google will determine which guest post links to devalue? Thanks!
