      I have a client that the only thing I can determine is over optimization of a couple anchor terms which the person no longer ranks for..I tried mixing up with brandname , brandname.com and  a diversity of links but nothing seems to budge anyone have a similar problem?

        unfortunately, without a link everyone will be tossing darts in the dark.  There have been a ton of people who have recovered from panda - both from adjustments in terms of their own SEO and Google fixing and tweaking the udpate.  How long have you been down? what were you ranked previously and what are you ranked now (if you're ranked at all.)

          position #1 to #3 on page one for every term I optimized for ....now on page 5 or worse. Been down for 6 months now done an extensive overhaul of content and onsite, title tags etc as well as off site and nothing has changed.
