Been lurking about to see if there was any more info on this "Google Bug"...
Seems many sites are affected ... new and old, big and small. Google has installed some sort of filter and many innocents have been caught up in the carnage. Not as wide spread as the now famous FLORIDA update ... but certainly damaging to affected websites. BTW - I don't believe the scraper cover story ... The best known site I have heard of is Alexa.com (now PR-0). Only 23 pages left in the index (mostly from subdomains, and all cached before July 17) The oldest sites are from 1996/1997 Largest is 77,000 page site. POOF all gone from the index in one blow.

The weird thing is in the Google Toolbar, http://alexa.com is showing PR-7 with 2500 backlinks, but http://www.alexa.com is showing PR-0 with 0 backlinks. This is really weird. How long should we wait to get our rankings back? About a week? I'm not even sure if my sites that were dropped had any violations or not. |

Thanks for pointing that out, even thou I visit alexa.com quite often I didn't realiza that it now has a PR of 0 :SHOCKED!: It seems that google is trying to hunt ants with a shotgun and an unacceptable amount of innocent sites are being affected.

Fixed!!!
Starting to see some sites back in index with PR restored ... don't know if this is a rollback or manual over-ride yet.

rtchar,
That's good to hear. Alexa.com still displays a PR0 though... Last edited by HostingForSEO : July 30th, 2005 at 05:10 AM. |

However, the fact that 4 of my sites were affected, makes me wonder if it was something they didn't like on my sites. I'm not involved in any blackhat stuff, and duplicate content is normally a per-page penality, so I'm still tending to blame Rankingpower.
Since the Rankingpower script gets it's content from the Altavista search results, and builds something that looks like a directory, maybe that could appear like a scraper site. |

Ask them: google support
Those creeps are the only one who actually know what happened to your site. |

I submitted a general question to them to ask if rankingpower or rpower is against their TOS. I should probably wait a little longer before asking them my specific sites, just in case they come back on their own. In the past Google has been very forgiving when I had 3 sites dropped for joining a links farm. |

well,
they're banned from Google so something is wrong right there. Just searched for Rankingpower and didn't see it there. If their software suggested /used doorways, link schemes etc., that might've been it for your site. Cleaning up, admiting it and begging Google might be your only hope. Quote:

That I could accept ... the problem is that these sites are completely removed from database. Not even one page can be found with the site: search. This is completely different than falling in the SERPs. Quote:
You guys might be looking in the wrong direction ... they may be knocked out for the same reason as we were! I was part way through a study and found that knocked off sites were linked to 10 or more sites that were also knocked off. Hmmmm .... coincidence??? Started to think that the new filter must have cascaded. You link to lots of scrapers so you must be a scraper, and anybody pointing to you must also be a suspect. Then my site just reappeared ... ![]() |

Last night I noticed we had fallen even more in the SERPs so I did a site: check. Only 8 pages! Now only 2!
I'm looking for the "eject" button, but... Hopefully this is just a temporary thing. This has abeen a crazy month of activity for the SEs! |

Check Your Backlinks !!
Can someone else check backlinks of dropped sites?
So far checked 5 sites and I am starting to see a pattern 2 sites have 10 or more backlinks from delisted sites and they have also been delisted. 2 have 0 to 5 backlinks from delisted sites - still listed 1 has external link page - still listed The only explanation I have for such well known, high quality, sites and directories suffering the same fate is off-site factors. So far it looks like backlinks ... |
