You'll want to verify your site in Google Webmaster Tools, then look for any messages in there from Google that might alert you to any problems they've found with your site.

Has your traffic changed? Have your rankings changed?

3 of your most common anchor text terms:

waste disposal london

house clearance london

waste disposal

You are almost certainly being effected by the recent update which penalises this very thing. Although you have over 2,000 links containing a brand anchor (http://www.diamondwaste.co.uk/) the 40,000+ links containing commercial anchors are seriously harming your site.

Also, having looked at some of these links, I would say they are quite spammy and of very poor quality. Ultimately, you have a lot of work to do in cleaning up your backlink profile before submitting any type of reconsideration request to Google.

Have you not seen a decrease in rankings/visitors from search? Or is it just a change in TBPR(tool bar Page Rank)?

If manual action has been taken against your site then you would expect some sort of removal.

However if could just be that you've lost TBPR because all your links have been devalued.

Hi Ben, Say i was penalized for unethical link building wouldn't i be sand boxed and just drop out the engines?

[BenFox]

It looks like a lot of your links were from "link" and "resources" pages. This kind of link building doesn't look natural so you might have been penalized.

If you do want to submit a reconsideration request then visit this page from Google.
