De-listed? What happened? No rankings??
-
Was ranking on first page for over 80 terms with over 25 in the top 3 and my main keyword was ranked #4...now my twitter account has replaced my website for #4 in the rankings for the main keyword. I now have ZERO Rankings for all keywords for my website. I have no idea what happened. ** Is there anyway for me to check with Google to see why I have been wiped off the map in the search rankings? **

Aeronet...I am not sure if that fixed the problem but now we are ranking higher than ever. Thanks for your input!!! I was scared.

Not sure what happened but tonight all our rankings are now back...and we are ranked higher than ever. We also now rank the highest we ever have for our main keyword as we have climbed to #3. We also have NEW terms we are now ranking for on the first page. This has been a very strange day.

They said they didn't put me on any networks.

Thanks for the heads up....They just removed all the duplicate content. I hope that fixes the problem but for one page of duplicate content it seems a little severe. That is an industry specific directory that was free.
As far as I can see my website has been removed from all the terms I was ranking for over the past 60 days. Poof.

Hi Boodreaux,
It could be a duplicate content problem, when I searched for your text on Google, another website came first in the result and it has all the text from your front page.
-
Might be possible that they put you on networks and didnt tell you, these networks are getting severly punished by Google, and thats where alot of the rankings drops are coming from.

I hired a link building company and they were working on getting one term ranked. I hired them for 5 weeks and canceled with them because I wanted to be careful. Only person I have ever hired to do anything. They said they submitted me to several directories because I was new and it would be good to get started. NO NETWORKS as far as I know.

Have you used any link building networks like ALN, BMR or anything like that? not recently but at all?

How to reverse declining Google rankings?
We have a long established business since 2004 and have been fortunate that having been one of the original companies in our industry, we have always enjoyed strong Google rankings. Unfortunately, these have been steadily declining over the past couple of years and a comparison of August to date against the equivalent period last year has seen a 20% drop in traffic from Google. We don't believe that it is being caused by a penalty and rather is the result of some strong players entering our market and tightening their focus which has caused us to take a dip in rankings. We are guilty of being complacent in our SEO - largely due to not knowing what to do and being scared to touch it when it was working in case we broke it! - but now it's time to fight back. We still have a strong site, good traffic levels and a strong product offering. We have knowledge of SEO and resources in house, but are not experts by any means. Our current plan is to: perform a technical site audit, fixing the issues highlighted by the Moz Pro Software put strong emphasis on our blog, writing daily about the latest news and events in our industry provide weekly content articles which are more in depth than the daily blog articles and which will be of interest to our community undertake surveys and publish infographics and statistics with the hope of being picked up in national newspapers Are there any key elements that we are missing out in this plan, or is that it in a nutshell? Any help and advice is greatly appreciated.

Stock lists - follow of nofollow?
a bit of a catch 22 position here that i could use some advice on please! We look after a few Car dealership sites that have daily (some 3 times a day) stock feeds that add and remove cars form the site, which in turn removes/creates pages for each vehicle. We all know how much search engines like sites that have content that is updated regularly but the frequency it happens on our sites means we are left with lots of indexed pages that are no longer there. now my question is should i nofollow/disallow robots on all the pages that are for the details of the vehicles meaning the list pages will still be updated daily for "new content" or allow google to index everything and manage the errors to redirect to relevant pages? is there a "best practice" way to do this or is it really personal preference?

Tagged URL ranking organically
I've noticed that one of our GA tagged urls are ranking organically & therefore is skewing the referral data. The campaign that we were tracking is no longer active but the link still works, but it's going to an old landing page. I asked our developers if we could redirect it but they said that it didn't work. Does anyone have some advise or a solution for this? Thanks!
