I was listed but Google only indexed a few of my sites, now none of them are listed. What caused them to drop the site? I thought they just moved it down in the rankings..!!!:crybaby:

heya.
What are the URLs of the sites that were dropped? Is it just today that you noticed them gone? It could be the case that they're just temporarily out but will be back in later today or tomorrow as Google updates their index.
Change hosting providers? Servers? Change your robots.txt file or anything of that sort that might affect their ability to be spidered? Alter your metatags (any broken javascript or redirects in em)?
Is it that they arent listed or is it that they have dropped their rank?
For example, Oz Male Galleries is ranked http://www.google.com/search?sourcei...zmalegalleries
Hae you tried searching on the domain name itself to see if you are listed?

Hey SouthernExposure:
do this - in the google search box you want to type
site:yourdomain.com
Google will return all the pages it has with that domain name. Just a little Google tip. That's also handy to track whether or not google is picking up more and more of your website's pages as your site grows.
hope that helps

If your site is new, ie, only picked up in the last few months, there is a theory that you first get listed in the google "sandbox" where you stay listed there only for a short time while google monitors your site and makes sure you are not trying to scam them by redirecting once listed. You will see your site drop out of google when it transfers you into their regular listings but usually it will come back in a few weeks.

some of my sites fell off google in the last few days :-( some were listed there for a couple years consistantly, and haven't been changed at all. rats!
Thanks for the shameless plug Lee.Quote:
