Website dissapeared out of Google
-
Hi Everyone,
About 2 months ago i launched a website called http://spelenroulette.nl, i did some linkbuilding for this website in the meantime with other roulette/gaming related websites and the website got a bit up in Google.
But when i was checking my rankings today the frontpage of this website doesn't show up on the first 80 pages? Only some subpages are still on the same positions.
Could this be for a rank-update like these happens all the time and your site dissapears from Google for several days, or could this be because of wrong/too many backlinks or something completely different?
Regards,
Yannick

How long could it take then till my site gets back in google because of these 2 penalized links?
-
Ah, certainly interested.
Yup, I would absolutely email them to remove those links. If there's any risk whatsoever, I would ask for the links to be removed.
-
I checked for the sitename in Google(And they didn't have common names like my websites, but something weird), and i can't find this website in Google anymore, some of it's subpages still exist, but the page where i have a link has dissapeared.
-
How can you tell that these two websites have a penalty now?
-
I was checking several links wich were placed on several niche-related websites, but 2 of these website which didn't have a penalty during the link placement, have a penalty now as far as i can see.
Should i wait for another week, or mail these webmasters if they want to remove my link?

There are a lot of reasons why a site might drop in rank. The number is higher for newer sites because a site can often rank well after launch and then become weighted down to a "real" number. Another possibility is a temporary shift in your site rank. I've seen sites inexplicably drop (i.e. no recent SEO activity) and then come right back in a weeks time.
Your site's not been de-indexed. Keep doing proper SEO and you should come back up.

Actually, I've had the same sort of experience over the past 48 hours with one of my websites - it has completely disappeared from Google over the past 48 hours.
I suspect it is indeed another algorithm change that has affected the website, however, my recommendation is that you continue to add links, add high quality and unique content, etc. Just because it dropped now doesn't mean that it won't come back.
On some of my websites, I've seen the rankings disappear, and when it comes back, it's in the top 15 results - which is great.
Keep SEOing and don't lose hope.

Thanks for your answer,
I launched this website a month ago i just checked, wrote several site-related articles and update the website each 3 days with a new newsarticle.
So it surprised me that only the frontpage dissapeared from google, and not the subpages.
I don't believe the Google search for links, when you use linkcommand you'll see several links, one of those links is unrelated to the site and i just mailed the website if they wanted to remove that link. Other websites which link towards me are related to my niche.
My linkbuilding style was contacting other webmasters and passing content if they wanted to place that with a link towards my website included, made some Social Media accounts for the website and that was about it, not really special. I think there are only 10 new links since the launch of this website, that shouldn't be too much in only a month time?

Not coming up for a term that is within your domain is not a good sign:
http://www.google.nl/search?q=spelenroulette&pws=0At this point I am thinkiing penalty or ban, however ban is not the case as you still rank for an exact domain search:
http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=spelenroulette.nlOnly 11 pages on the site (or indexed):
http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=site%3Aspelenroulette.nlYour site seems pretty poor in content and purpose so it could be an algorithmically assigned penalty. The thing is that my dutch is not that great so I cannot evaluate (I am also not sure if the new algo applies to Holland yet).
Link command shows no links:
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=link%3Aspelenroulette.nlYou're in a very spammy niche and I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of filter or penalty applied.
Search for: "spelenroulette.nl" -site:spelenroulette.nl brings 37 instances where your domain was mentioned (or perhaps linked) and they don't seem that flashy.
What was your link building style?

Googles stance on Back Links via a Badge/Form
Hey guys, Does anyone know what Google's stance is on backlinks that come via a form, WordPress theme or badge. For example if I offer website security and provide badges for websites that are malware clean (with a back link to my website) and 100 websites sign up to my website will this be deemed as bad practice in Google's eyes? Also if I create a free WordPress theme with a backlink to myself? The second question sounds like I'm providing content for a link which seems okay but the first one can go either way. Thanks

Do links to my website improve all pages?
I'm currently building links to my home page (through directories) and blog pages. However, none of these pages are actually targeted pages for main keywords. In SEO, do links to any webpage of a site contribute to the improved rank of other pages?

Google Panda Update question
Since the Panda update from December 21st, 2012, some of the keywords I used to rank for are now gone beyond page 20. What I don't get is that the websites that are now ranking are definitely full of crap and they have tons of unnatural links pointing to them. I've analysed their backlink profiles and most of them have only exact keyword match anchors pointing to them. So what's going on? Is buying tons of crappy links still a valid tactic? I know it is not but how come thoses sites outrank me? I mean it happened to LOTS of my keywords. I don't get it...

How can influence a directory backling page on your website ?
Hi, Some good directories asked a backlink for having ours listed in their categories. But of course, I am not fan of putting their link on the home page, but creating a page exclusively for these backlinks is a bad thing to mister google ? thanks in advance !

When is Google going to sort their act out?
I work with a couple of clients in the finance and debt area. I've been doing loads of work examining the link profiles of the commercial sites at the top of the rankings and 70% of the links I am seeing are low value directories and sites obviously built for links with multiple outgoing links to completely unrelated sources! When I examine the other links their isn't enough value in them to outweigh what looks to me like very obvious and spammy low quality link building. Why can't Google see what I'm seeing - it's so obvious? I know there are multiple factors at play but links like these should offer no value or get a site penalised (isn't that what Google tell us) but these sites still seem to be ranking because of them rather than despite them!
