What to do if my site was De-indexed?

[JamesNorquay]

If you check site:website.com.au

and it has been de indexed then yes it has been dropped, my guess is for quality.

google has removed around 1 million+ blogs for quality issues.

question: how do you get it back?

answer: you need to pimp your site out, add heaps of great content, remove the ads, make it look like a website, remove any paid links or bad backlinks you can.

then you submit a reconsideration request -http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=35843

This has happened too many people, most of the time low quality content + Over use of adsense is the problem.

Kind Regards,

I checked myself and his site is still indexed. I am having a major issue with my site as well. I was ranking high for a bunch of keywords for several Months now, I checked tonight and I've dropped significantly in ranking. I'm pretty sure my site is compliant with Googles webmaster guide. I'm a stickler for white hat SEO and pretty sure I'm clean but I could be wrong. I've been doing SEO for almost a year now professionally and I've never experienced a drop like this and I'm still indexed and it's only in Google that I dropped.

I think Jegghead's problem is the rankings he saw were the false inflated rankings typically seen after first submitting a site to be indexed. I've seen it several times before with sites I've submitted.

I checked myself and your site is still indexed. I don't think there is anything to be alarmed about. This typically happens right after a website has been submitted to be indexed. I saw it several times with sites I've submitted. That's the reality of how buried sites are when they are first indexed. It also depends on the competitiveness of the keywords. If this is your first site optimizing from scratch, much patience is required.

What keywords are you monitoring?

I just checked and you are ranked #99 on Google for computer repair deerfield beach. I you're using SEOmoz Rank Tracking it doesn't give results over 50. I use Rank Checker from SEOBOOK because it gives pretty deep rankings.

By the way I'm down in Hollywood, FL. Good luck!

Yes I do have a Google Webmaster Tool Account. After I submitted my site map on Saturday, Sunday is when I seen a jump. Most of the things that I was number for are not that competitive. I went for low competition key words starting out. What should I look for with my web master tools?

[Jegghead]

I've optimized a lot of sites, and most times I didn't propagate so fast...unless the domain had been there for a while and I went in an optimized it. Usually if its a brand new domain I won't see it for a couple weeks.

I monitoring like 80 words. Words that aren't that competitive because on my old website I used to rank for them.

mac computer training lake worth, iphone group workshop, iphone group workshop....words like that. Funny thing is, the words that I'm monitoring with the SEO MOZ tool, it still shows the reports as if I was still ranking on page one for 70 of the 80 keywords.

Thanks for the response James. This is my 3rd version of the site and I would think that the content is quality. Maybe you're right. Were you able to look at my site? Thanks.

[Jegghead]

Brian,

Thanks for taking the time to look at my site. it's just really odd. Two other things: When I type in my url in Google, it finds my home page and when I see the last time it was indexed, it shows the landing page that I used to have and the indexed date is March 28th, 2012. Weird.

Another thing...when you using the webmaster tools, I discovered that the html site map had an error, so I removed it from my site and created an site map.xml then i'll try to resubmit it.

I'm right in East Pompano! What's your website address?

[brianhughes]

You could check for any messages from Google.

[brianhughes]

Yes, most of the sites I've had to submit also didn't propagate so quickly either but some of them have. It's really strange when it happens. I'll look for one of my old reports that show it.

The rankings update once a week. If you go to the Research Tools and go to Rank Tracking you can check each keyword live.

You're welcome Jegghead! I'm glad to help.

Yes, it's frustrating that Google doesn't except html sitemaps, mine errored on Sunday and I dropped about 75 rankings on several keywords I was in the top three rankings for in Google for a while now. I'm trying to figure out why that has happened and if I can fix it.
