        When I go to Google and search site:sportsbettingdeal.com, I see hundreds of pages indexed. It sounds like you are indexed, but perhaps not ranking. Have you verified your site in Google Webmaster Tools and looked for any messages there?

          Also, some of the links to that site don't look like they're of the best quality. Have you looked at Open Site Explorer to see some of the links coming in to the domain?

          http://moz.com/researchtools/ose/links.html?filter=&group=0&page=1&site=http%3A%2F%2Fsportsbettingdeal.com&sort=page_authority&source=external&target=domain

          I'm seeing links to the site on pages with over 9,000 blog comments (that have no other content), and an .edu page from 2009 with 2600 spam comments.

                  Thomas, you responded with a bunch of links, but not too much information to put them in context. At this point, I think the redirect between www and non-www is the least of the worries. More concerning is the links and that this is an industry that is not legal world-wide and faces intense competition and often shady tactics when it comes to optimization.

                    First, go to http://www.google.com/webmasters/ and verify your site in Google Webmaster Tools. You can then see if Google has any messages for you.

                    A recent thread at http://moz.com/community/q/need-referrals-on-expert-to-clean-up-unnatural-links-and-submit-reconsideration-request discusses some posts that Marie Haynes has written that have information about unnatural links, and some of the advice could be valuable to you.

                    First step though is to see what Google has to say in Webmaster Tools.

                      Sorry Kerry I did not mean to hit submit I got a phone call & just saw this.

                      My intention was not to send something that was lacking information.

                      If your site is to show up for keywords that you know used to rank for could you list some of those keywords? How is it that you came across this information that your site does not rank properly anymore?

                      I would recommend having an audit done by a professional company because frankly as Keri stated above and I alluded to in one of links above.

                      You unquestionably should set up a Google Webmaster tools account. It is free to do and it will give you any errors in the portal and if your site does happen to get a manual penalty for any reason you will know about it right away.

                      Have you ever purchased links in the past?

                      Did you ever have a search engine optimization company build links for you?

                      What have you done to promote your site in the past?

                      Your site link profile does not look very clean unfortunately. I would recommend speaking with one of these companies below if you have an issue.

                      If your looking pages that where indexed

                      I would use a good SEO company

                      Ryan at http://www.vitopian.com/contact-us help with  this type of issue

                      The others I would talk to are

                      Distilled

                      https://www.distilled.net/

                      Seer

                      http://www.seerinteractive.com/

                      Portent

                      http://www.portent.com/

                      If you want to try and fix it on your own you can use tools like

                      http://www.removeem.com/

                      by

                      http://www.virante.org/

                      I hope this is been of help I apologize for my prior submission was lacking the information that I have put in this one.

                      I do not believe you will be able to "fix" your site by logging into Google Webmaster tools but it is definitely a step in the right direction.

                      Sincerely,

                      Thomas

                      PS Google has been indexing your site at least up until July of this year notice the World Cup is being covered in Google's index.

                        No, Google didn't give me any message. From webmaster tools it looks okay.

                        But what i believe is, i lost ranks and traffic due to building too many links few months ago. As seems my site has tons of spam links. So how would i remove those links? I don't wanaa spend too much money, as im small time webmaster.

                        So any advice would be cool. thanks

                          Yeah seems Google indexing but i lost 80% search traffic over the last few months. Also my brand keyword is not ranking. This is why i was worried. Traffic started to drop last 8 months or so till now hit the bottom.

                          So, i was wondering how can i solve this issue. Is it because i build too many links few months ago? Should i delete the links, if so which link should i delete?

                            Try to remove as many of the bad links as possible, and disavow he remaining bad links. The references I provided earlier are a good place to start.

                              Hi because I have not seen the exact stats on your site I cannot tell you this for certain but

                              Normally I would use a tool like deep crawl as this would allow me to see how many URLs should have indexed and how many your site contains. Along with many other metrics.

                              You say your seen a drop of search traffic by 80% over the last eight months and now it feels like you are getting no traffic?

                              Normally that is a really bad sign as Google tends to take sites that do index out of the index prior to issuing a manual penalty some what of a warning.

                              Because you have told me you did build links I am going to assume you took a link from any site you could get?

                              Because this is honestly a pretty severe problem I would check Google Webmaster tools before going forward if you do not have an account with Google Webmaster tools all you need is an e-mail address you can sign up for free and check if you have been penalized?

                              If you want to remove the links which you have built I would agree you should do this because briefly looking at your link profile I see a lot of very spamming links if you want to do it on your own I recommend

                              http://www.removeem.com/self-serve.php

                              If you want an expert to handle this for you I would call

                              Ryan at http://www.vitopian.com/contact-us /

                              removeem will tell you if it believes the link is bad and it does a pretty good job of doing that.

                              However in these situations I really do not think it can substitute for human being.

                              It depends on how much money you want to spend on saving this business I can tell you that I personally know people that have been helped by Ryan and are very happy with the results.

                              Your question of should you remove your links that you have built I would say most likely answer is going to be yes but I do not know how you built them if you did something against googles terms of service absolutely you should remove them ASAP.

                              I hope this is been of help,

                              Thomas
