        Are you able to provide the URL of the website so we can look at what some of the issues are?

            What's with the directory section? I see in the footer the resources section redirects to the homepage but these pages still exist. I would lose them asap that could be an issue.

            http://www.thelogoboutique.com/resources/web-design.php

            Homepage has way too many instances of "logo" in the content, over optimized title tags, keywords meta, content etc.

            Interlinking in content is a bit overdone and the keyword targets are not really lining up well.

                    I searched [site:thelogoboutique.com] and your site showed up, so you haven't been "removed" from Google. I see you on page 4 for [custom logo design]. So your site hasn't been deindexed.

                    It looks like your company builds websites for other companies, and you insert a backlink in their footers. That's a sketchy technique and it wouldn't surprise me if it's caught up with you. I would start there. Immediately cease this practice and remove the links from the sites you've built.

                      I just noticed that your site lost about 700 backlinks in 14 days. I feel that this didn't help much.

                      Have a great day.
