Banned from google !
-
Hello,
I realize (with GAnaltytics and command "link:") this morning that my domain host (share one) : "mlconseil.com" under which several websites are hosted has been banned from google.
Here below the websites :
www.amvo.fr :
www.apei-cpm.fr :
www.armagnac-les-vieux-chenes.fr
www.centraledelexpertise.fr
www.cleaning-pc-33.com
www.internet-33.fr
www.territoires-et-ntic.fr
www.vin-le-taillou.com
www.maliflo.asso.frI don't kow why, i use since end of january 2011 IBP, only for some submissions to directories and for managing some lists of urls. I submitted about 30/40 directories never at the same time , but raher day after day, smoothly.
On www.territoires-et-ntic.fr and www.amvo.fr which are blogs, i have installed some external rss feeds to display as articles, i decided to stop that but i don't know if it's related to such "blacklistage" from google. I don't use any nasty "blackhat" programs or else..
I'am really upset about that, i claim this morning with the same words as now, a new indexation but i don't know how long it will take ?Any idea ?
Which are the tools which could help me to scan for maybe any malicious maleware on my hosting provider ?
Many tks

Oups ! such shame, i mix the command up this morning ! in fact i used "link:" instead of "site:", and i have been misleading by the fact that my visits are down days after days with about 80% less than the previous month, so i tried to find a reason...
Awfully sorry about that..now all the work is to find what 's happening about such drop in my visits...
-
I have just started some submissions on directories , not on content farms..
-
tks, i check that from g w tool, but no malware were detected...
-
Unfortunately, I don't know of such a tool. It will take some more research on your part to see if other sites using the same server are getting the same treatment from Google. It is curious that Barry Smith was able to find your sites showing up. It's possible that Google's algorithym change has adversely affected your SEO results if you were relying heavily on links from websites that Google depreciated as "content farms".
-
Have you added webmaster tools to your site? - https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/home?hl=en
That would tell you if Google had detected malware on your sites.
-
Did you mean to use "site:" as "link:" is (frankly) rubbish for giving you what links you have and secondly wouldn't show what pages your site has.
But again, if I use that it shows your pages. So you're not banned.
Are you saying all the sites linking to you have been closed down and that's why you no longer rank?
-
Tks for your prompt reply ..But how can i be sure that it comes from my host ?
I've got some doubt but i can't prove it unless i got some figures to prove it , a tool or something to tell my host its responsability..
-
Tks for the reply ...but how can i prove that the neighbourhoods from my webhosting is bad ?
Is there any tool for checking for sure that matter ?
-
Tks for your reply but i used for instance with the command "link:" to get all the pages listed from each website, now : zero ! And in GA all the visits and the referral figures are getting down and down...as days go by ...so i 'm sure that google put aside the domain..
-
bad neighbourhoods can make Google blacklist you. Move your hosting somewhere else.
Then recheck the content for any issues (duplicate content etc) and then submit to Google for reconsideration.
-
Can you clarify what you mean by banned, all your sites show up in search results for me.
-
If indeed your host is to blame for getting the boot from Google, then you need to move your websites ASAP. Applying for reindexing probably isn't going to get you very far if your host is the root of the problem. You might consider upgrading to a virtual private server.

Google Finance Filled with Spam
Not sure if anyone else does anything with Google Finance. In the last few months, I have been noticing a lot of spam sites filling the search results in Google "ticker pages". In this example you can see 4 or the 5 top results are from the same blog network with spun low quality content.

The wrath of Google's Hummingbird, a big problem, but no quick solution?
One of our websites has been wrongfully tagged for penalty and has literally disappeared from Google. After lot's of research, it seems the reason was due to a ton of spammy backlinks and irrelevant anchor text. I have disavowed the links, but the results are still not rebounding back. Any idea how long the wrath of Google gods will last?

Has google done well with these search results?
I am struggling to grasp the new logic behind google, my understanding was that they wanted to return more related searches so that the search matched the results giving people exactly what they are looking for from trusted suppliers. However I work in the vacation rental niche and I have found that the individual long tail searches have started to become less valuable as they are no longer giving the exact property. Here is a screenshot of the top 10 results for the key phrase "10 bedroom villas in quinta do lago" Position 1 & 2 are good results and would be expected however the next 7 positions are completely not related to the search, yes it is quinta do lago. But I am looking specifically for a 10 bedroom villa, none of these pages offer 10 bedroom villas. I actually found my listing outside the top 20 and mine is a 10 bedroom villa in quinta do lago. Does anyone have anything that can enlighten me on this? Thanks Andy 0bqdRJi

How does Google decide what content is "similar" or "duplicate"?
Hello all, I have a massive duplicate content issue at the moment with a load of old employer detail pages on my site. We have 18,000 pages that look like this: http://www.eteach.com/Employer.aspx?EmpNo=26626 http://www.eteach.com/Employer.aspx?EmpNo=36986 and Google is classing all of these pages as similar content which may result in a bunch of these pages being de-indexed. Now although they all look rubbish, some of them are ranking on search engines, and looking at the traffic on a couple of these, it's clear that people who find these pages are wanting to find out more information on the school (because everyone seems to click on the local information tab on the page). So I don't want to just get rid of all these pages, I want to add content to them. But my question is... If I were to make up say 5 templates of generic content with different fields being replaced with the schools name, location, headteachers name so that they vary with other pages, will this be enough for Google to realise that they are not similar pages and will no longer class them as duplicate pages? e.g. [School name] is a busy and dynamic school led by [headteachers name] who achieve excellence every year from ofsted. Located in [location], [school name] offers a wide range of experiences both in the classroom and through extra-curricular activities, we encourage all of our pupils to “Aim Higher". We value all our teachers and support staff and work hard to keep [school name]'s reputation to the highest standards. Something like that... Anyone know if Google would slap me if I did that across 18,000 pages (with 4 other templates to choose from)?

Is it outside of Google's search quality guidelines to use rel=author on the homepage?
I have recently seen a few competitors using rel=author to markup their homepage. I don't want to follow suit if it is outside of Google's search quality guidelines. But I've seen very little on this topic, so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Big loss in Google traffic recently, but can't work out what the problem is
Since about May 17 my site - http://lowcostmarketingstrategies.com - has suffered a big drop in traffic from Google, presumed from the dreaded Penguin update. I am at a loss why I have been hit when I don't engage in any black hat SEO tactics or do any link building. The site is high quality, provides a good experience for the user and I make sure that all of the content is unique and not published elsewhere. The common checklist of potential problems from Penguin (such as keyword stuffing, web spam and over optimisation in general) don't seem relevant to my site. I'm wondering if someone could take a quick look at my site to see any obvious things that need to be removed to get back in Google's good books. I was receiving around 200 - 250 hits per day, but that has now dropped down to 50 - 100 and I fee that I have been penalised incorrectly. Any input would be fantastic Thanks 🙂

My Google PR is Decreasing HELP!
We have just started in on an SEO campaign after a year or so break from engaging in active SEO efforts. Our rankings and organic traffic seems to be increasing but we just dropped from a PR 5 to a PR 4 after being a PR 5 for probably a couple years. We are not doing anything black hat or sketchy and try hard to make sure all of our links are relevant and quality links. Does anyone know why this might have happened or if it is an indication of anything?
