Blacklisted
I seem to have been blacklisted, or at least completely de-ranked, from Google for searches for 'property'. I went from the top 10 down to... who knows? Anyway, I can only assume that this is down to keyword stuffing. Despite the fact that I haven't intentionally stuffed the keyword 'property' into the page - and it's in the domain name as well, which doesn't help when I need to print the site name on the page.
Now I can remove the word as much as possible but it'll be to the detriment of the user. Is there any way of putting in an appeal with Google or what?

Well it's been knocked from the top 10 to God knows where in the last week or two so I can only imagine that it's been blacklisted... otherwise I assume the drop wouldn't have been so drastic.Originally Posted by blacknight
I've seen worse
I've also seen it recover
Check your logs carefully
Was your website up all the time?
If the site was down or slow when the bots crawled it might explain part of the issue
I see you at no.30 on "pages from Ireland", so you're not banned...
No, I'm not banned as such but I was in the top 10 for generic searches and now I appear nowhere (or at least a few hundred results down... I haven't been able to find it)
Erratic.
Hey Ken,
This happended to me also, I got some great advice from Richard and Dave.
How to get back in google's good books?
I used SEOMZ keyword ranker tool and it said he wasn't in the top 100 for 'Property' under G.ie...
No, it's definitely not. It was up there in 7th or 8th about 2 weeks ago. I'm assuming that there's no way you can appeal against this then? I can only assume that I've been penalised for alleged keyword stuffing. Maybe I should change the domain name
I don't think you've been penalised at all.
Google tweaks their algorithm now and then. This can affect rankings. Also, websites which have better SEO than your website can overtake you...
