Help - just disappeared from Google
-
My google listings have disappeared in the last few days. I used to have positions 1, 2, 3, and sometimes 4 on page 1, but since the last update (19th?) it appears I have been dropped?
My domainn is www.eseyo.com and the search terms I used to acheive results for were "seo in brentwood" and "seo brentwood"
I even created a screencast of my success some time ago for a blog post: http://www.eseyo.com/seo-in-brentwood/
Is there anything that I can do to get these listings back?
I have not done anything too naughty in terms of tactics. Purchased a few fiver gigs to get some fake social likes but that is it the rest was all true links and listings.
your help and advice most appreciated.
Scott.

Add the new number 1 as a competitor into your reports and see what they have done better.
..and I agree with the comments before me. Quality of content is King!

Just my opinion, but I would change a few things:
- Get rid of the links you have placed at the bottom of clients websites, they don't seem natural, and the clients would probably not voluntarily put them there.
- Get rid of feeder pages like this: http://www.brentwood-seo.co.uk/ and this:http://www.brentwood-seo.com/. They are not built for users.
- Get rid of these pages that you have parked for clients with your stuff on them, like this: http://www.lambro-contracts.co.uk/ and this: http://www.argentumjewellery.co.uk/ They are effectively a private link network, which is being penalized like crazy.

There's some element of irony about someone who offers SEO services asking what happened to their rankings.
There was an 'anti-spam' update yesterday. I also believe there was a Panda update on the 23rd.

HELP: Wrong domain showing up in Google Search
So i have this domain (1)devicelock.com and i also had this other domain (2)ntutility.com, the 2nd domain was an old domain and it is not in use anymore. But when i search for devicelock on Google, the homepage devicelock.com does not exist. Only ntutility.com comes up. I asked one of the developer how the redirect is happening from the old domain to the new one and he told me its through a DNS forward. And there is no way to have an .htacess file to set up a 301 instead. Please help!

Google Search Parameters
Couple quick questions. Is using the parameter pws=0 still useful for turning off personalization? Is there a way to set my location as a URL parameter as well? For instance, I want to set my location to United States, can this be done with a URL param the same way as pws=0?

Our webpage performs very bad on some keywords relating to one product.

How do i find out why this is so, or if we have been penalized by google?On other search-engines (yahoo, bing etc) we are number one! And we have the highest pagerank among the competitors...

.htaccess help please
Hi there, Can anyone let me know what I need to add to my .htaccess file to make sure that the trailing slash on my domain gets redirected to my main domain name. For example, at the moment Google is seeing my primary domain as follows: http://www.mydomain.com http://www.mydomain.com/ I thought I'd covered off all possible duplication penalities but it look as though I've still got one left! Thanks very much for your help, Simon

Look of google results
Can anyone tell me why some google results show the main page and then a listing of all subsequent pages (i.e. results for SEOMOZ) while others just show the main page with nothing under it. I have two different sites (one personal the other biz) and they both show their search results differently. Is it something in the site creation or how it is crawled by google? Thanks. bKs3C

Blocking Google from Crawling Parameters
Hi guys: What is the best way to keep Google from crawling certain urls with parameters? I used the setting in Webmaster Tools, but that doesn't seem to be helping at all. Can I use robots.txt or some other method? Thanks! Some examples are: <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup> www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=179 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=226 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=227 <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup> www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=212 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=213 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=214 <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup>
