      Dio mio!

      Wetherby racecourse <cite>www.wetherbyracing.co.uk/</cite>‎ has been de indexed by Google, re indexing request has been made via webmaster tools and the offending 3rd party banner ad has been stripped out. So my question is please.

      How long will it take approximately to re -index?
      And is it true re submitting an updated xml site & firing tweets at the ailing site may spark it back into life?

      Grazie tanto,David

        Couple questions -

        1.) What makes you think it's "de-indexed?" Do you mean your rankings dropped? Because it's definitely showing up in SERPs. Check http://www.google.com/search?&q=wetherbyracing&pws=0  EDIT** - Okay wait do you mean it's been marked as harmful? Because that's what I'm seeing now. "This site may harm your computer" and a warning not to enter it upon following the link. What happened there?

        2.) What/why on the banner ad? What makes you think this is the offender and what's the story behind it? Never had a malware problem so I'm curious how this went down.

        3.) What sort of messages have you received in GWT? Care to share that with us?

        Sorry I'm not being helpful and am just asking questions but I think some of those answers will help the community get you to the right answer.
