Welcome to the Q&A Forum

yes last year in august is where i have lost my rankings on main keywords and ever since then the site seems to be stuck somewhere under a filter - still trying to figure out why none of my services rank on even page 2-3-4 and some keywords rank...weird behaviors ever since last year in august

thank you i see your point and ur right but for example "san diego prom limo" - i have a page on that why am i nowhere to be found - why am i not event page 2,3 or 4 - i appreciate  everyone's thoughts on this

i didnt see my competitors having links particularly for these pages. I guess my question is why am i not even on page 2 or 3 or 4....why nowhere?

yes i know its ranking for other keywords but i wanted to see why not for some of my main services - but i will add some links on these and see - thanks for the suggestion

i did leave shortened url link at the top

How come i google content that resides on my website and on my homepage and my site doesn't come up? I know the content is unique i wrote that.

I have a feeling i have some kind of a crawling issue but cannot determine what it is. I ran the crawling test and other tools and didn't find anything. Google shows me that pages are indexed but yet its weird try googling snippets of content and you'll see my site isnt anywhere.

Have you experienced that before?

First i thought it was penalized but i submitted the reconsideration request and it came back clear, No manual spam action found. And i did not get any message in my GWMT either.

Any thoughts?

1. i did submitted disavowal for those links - nothing happened for over 3 months

2.i did file 3 reconsideration requests - got same answer "No manual spam action taken..."

3. i have been hit by a penalty im only ranking for my brand and no kw  - i used to rank for kw till september. 2012

4. no warnings in webmaster tools, no warnings at all....

Honestly the problem im having is i have paid a few of these removals, but it seems like other directories keep appearing in my link reports, links i have no ideea where they cam from ------and now im finding myself having to pay for those as well. I feel like these people put links on other directories and then ask me for more money....i cant keep paying them because they keep putting other links up, i dodnt know whos doing this but im so over it.....

NO i didnt pay to have HIM put them there - after the updates when my site wasnt ranking i pulled up my link report and contacted everyone i had a bad link from. I did not pay for any links ever, but i did have a company that worked for me last year and im suspecting they had negotiated these bad links now im just trying to get them removed....

I asked for links removal and it turned into a threat now see below. Can i do anything abt these? Can google protect us from these? Where can i let google know - my site is already penalized and only showing up for my brand in google

I have deleted the email threads from here - contact me if you want me to send those so you can see them
