My website has disapeared from all google queries except the ones that contains it´s own website name

Hi,
My website URL is: www.nixiweb.com
Before June of 2013 my website was always shown at first or second place at google when searching for "hosting gratis".
After June of 2013 my website has disappeared from all searches, it only appears when I search for the site name, eg: "nixiweb" or “www.nixiweb.com”
At webmaster tools, the search queries table only shows queries related to my website name (eg: "nixiweb" or “xixiweb”), and none related to any other keyword.
Can anybody help me understanding which is the problem with my site?
Thanks

Here's a link I couldn't find earlier - it's outdated now but might still be of some help: http://www.mytrafficdropped.com/

Finding the reason
Are you able to identify an exact date that traffic dropped in your Google Analytics account? Is it only organic traffic that had a big fall-off? If you can identify a date, does it match any algorithm updates here moz.com/google-algorithm-change ?
What to do
If your website was demoted due to an update of Google's Panda algorithm, you'll need to make sure your content is unique and high quality, amongst other things. There's a guide here: http://www.ventureharbour.com/panda-recovery-a-guide-to-recovering-googles-panda-update/
If it was demoted due to certain links (possible Penguin-related), there's a guide to spotting low quality links here (Step 3): http://moz.com/blog/ultimate-guide-to-google-penalty-removal
You could also take a look at Google's Quality Guidelines (there is some duplication with the above links) to see if your website complies with them: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35769?hl=en%233 ?

Hi Alex,
Yes, that is possible, but all the content at my webpage is completelly mine (I say that with hand on heart.), I've written it from scratch.
Most of the pages listed at you examples are forums users talking about my service and there are some other few websites that have partially copied some of my webpage text.
Is there any way to be sure if that is the reason?
Also, what should I do in that case?
Thanks for your help

I wonder if a Google Panda penalty has removed your pages. A lot of your content is showing as duplicates across other websites: example 1, example 2
Looking at your links, Penguin could have had an impact too. You have lots of "low-quality" links from pages like this: http://www.zobyhost.com/crear-nueva-cuenta.php - some of which are also responsible for your duplicated content.
However, there was no Penguin update reported in June 2013 - the closest is May 22nd: http://moz.com/google-algorithm-change

The strange thing is that my website usually appears on the first page, but now it does not appear in the first 50 pages

I have no manual actions at webmaster tools, also no notices ...
-
Does Webmaster Tools have any notices from Google about your site, such as a penalty?

Hi,
That probably means your competitors out ranked you in those terms. You still being able to find your site and seeing traffic from Google in WMT means that your site is still indexed in Google.
You can try using Moz's Rank Tracker tool to help determine your ranking on the terms "hosting gratis" and etc.
Continue building good quality links and provide good content and you should be back on first page in no time.

Temporarily redirecting a small website to a specific url of another website
Hi, I would like to redirect a small website that contains info about a specific project temporarily to a specific url about this project on my main website. Reason for this is that the small website doesn't contain accurate info anymore. We will adapt the content in the next few weeks and then remove the redirect again. Should I set up a 301 or a 302? Thanks

SEO on dynamic website
Hi. I am hoping you can advise. I have a client in one of my training groups and their site is a golf booking engine where all pages are dynamically created based on parameters used in their website search. They want to know what is the best thing to do for SEO. They have some landing pages that Google can see but there is only a small bit of text at the top and the rest of the page is dynamically created. I have advised that they should create landing pages for each of their locations and clubs and use canonicals to handle what Google indexes.Is this the right advice or should they noindex? Thanks S

Organic Listings showing Google Tag Manager + Google Page Title...?
I'm a bit stumped with this. I optimise all my titles etc for Australia - and now the organic liatings are showing something strange. For example ( we sell health supplements ) Meta title = "My Product , Buy Online Australia" If I type "My Product" - the title in the organic listings says "My Product - My Company Limited" - and the only place I can see it getting that from is a combination of Meta Data used in Google Tag Manager + the Name on my Google places page. This is much more obvious for categories.. but it's a pain in the butt. If I type "My Product Australia" Then the original "My Product , Buy Online Australia" comes up. Any ideas on policy etc? I have taken the "Limited" off the Google business page - so hopefully this will change over time - but I can't find any information on why google would do something like this. If you had shed any light on this - would be much appreciated.

Google images
Hi, I am working on a website with a large number (millions) of images. For the last five months Ihave been trying to get Google Images to crawl and index these images (example page: http://bit.ly/1ePQvyd). I believe I have followed best practice in the design of the page, naming of images etc. Whilst crawlng and indexing of the pages is going reasonably well with the standard crawler, the image bot has only crawled about half a million images and indexed only about 40,000. Can anyone suggest what I could do to increase this number 100 fold? Richard

Content Marketing: Should we build a separate website or built in site within the Website itself?
Hi Mozzers, Client: Big carpet cleaner player in the carpet cleaning industry Main Goal: Creating good content to Get more organic traffic to our main site Structure of the extra content: It will act like a blog but will be differentiated from the regular site by not selling anything but just creating good content. The look and design will be different from the client's site. SEO question: In terms of SEO, what would be the most beneficial for us to do, should we built in this new section/site outside or inside the client's site? I personally think that it should be separated from the main site because of the main reasons: A followed link to the main site Anchor texts implementation linking back to our service pages If we would to choose to build in this content, it would be highly beneficial for getting organic traffic within the main site but I am afraid this will not provide us any link juice since anchor texts won't be accounted the same since all of those would be located in the Nav bar of the main site. Can someone tell me what would be the best in terms of SEO? P.S: My boss doesn't agree with me and would rather go the second option (build in within the main site) that's why i am asking you guys what would be the most beneficial? Thank you Guys
