        Being dropped from Google search results is an indication your site has been penalized. I performed a search for your site and it is technically still indexed but your site has also clearly been penalized since you do not even show in results for exact text from your home page.

        A quick review of your site's backlinks shows many manipulative links. It appears you or someone working for you has built many links to your site in an apparent effort to manipulative Google search results. Google likely discovered this issue and have viewed it as a violation of Google Guidelines.

        You need to stop creating these types of links to your site. Next, you need to find and remove every link you created to your site. Those are the first two steps of resolving this issue.

          Thanks so much for your answer. However, some points i am not quite understand as you stated "...but your site has also clearly been penalized since you do not even show in results for exact text from your home page. " Since when i type "app favour" on google search bar, it still can show in result with my home page....am i somehow misunderstand??

            Another good way to know if it is a penalization from Google is to see if Yahoo and Bing have decreased as well. A penalty from Google wont affect the other search engines but if they have dropped as well, ti could be something else. My guess is it is a penalty 😞

              Thanks. However, Yahoo and Bing is hard to check since they only bring very limited number of traffic to my site.

              however, an strange situation is even i cannot see any pageview from google analysis even i set to (past 30 mins), however, the page view from adsense dashboard is keep increasing.

              why is that happen???

                I apologize Calvin. You are correct. I made an error when searching for your site.

                What keyword(s) are you experiencing a problem with?

                    Hello Calvin,

                    I am not exact sure as diagnosing a real problem from the user end in this case seems quite difficult but here are few of things that seem clear!

                    1. I will agree with Ryan that your link profile contain lousy links in it, so this is quite a possibility that you are facing a limited level of penalty because you are only appearing from your brad related keywords but if you go for any general relevant keyword then your website found nowhere in the search results..
                    2. As Google try and test multiple algo updates, so this is quite a possibility that this will be the impact of some algorithm update. Again, If this is the case you are somewhere going against the Google guidelines...
                    3. This can be the impact of any change thing you made recently on the website... if this is the case try undoing things and see if things work out for you...

                    It is highly advisable to build quality links to the website to deduce the amount of junk from the link profile or else you will face penalties from Google which eventually will hurt your business seriously.

                    Hope this will help!

                      It seems you are looking at which terms are sending your site traffic which is different from your rankings.

                      I checked the first keyword you mentioned: ios 6 tap to tweet. When I performed a site: search for your site, the first result page was http://www.appfavour.com/iphone/ios-6-swipe-tap-tweet-from-notification-center/

                      Based on the URL, I presume this is the page you are trying to rank for the term. When I examined the page, there is absolutely no unique content on the page. Why should this page rank for anything?

                      The header, footer and sidebar are identical to other pages. The "related posts" and "popular posts" are common on your site. 90%+ of your content is duplicated. You have an 82 word article and you expect that to be ranked?

                      Worse, I performed a search for the first sentence of your article: "If you’re a tweetaholic, things just got a little bit easier in iOS 6". Apparently even this little bit of content was copied from other sites.

                      A site with pages like this should not receive any traffic from Google. This web page is a text book example of the types of sites Google and Bing try to remove from their search results.

                        Will Google do this and not give any type of warning? If they have a spammy link profile of duplicate content issues, wouldnt there be a message in his Webmaster account?

                            unfortunately, it is not must that Google will send you an email.. you have to keep track of your links yourself as it is your baby you are building!
