How to recover your ranking in Google?

xiaochu · 03-08-2007

Hello DPIANS!

My site has started to drop slowly and well, this is the first time that I have had some serious traffic and a serious ranking in Google for a niche and a keyword that's very popular and has gazillionsss of pages in Google's index. We achieved something huge and ONLY because of the help and advice that we get here. All of you have been wonderfuly amazing all this time!

We need your help (again) lol... like I said, our site has started to drop and fall back on SERP. We want to get back to where we were and may be even achieve a better position.

What should I do in order to make sure that my site does not falls any more? How to recover? Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and best regards,
xiaochu

I would suggest you to do one way linking which is going hot these days rather than reciprocal linking.

May be due to some penalizing links

Quote:

Not all links are counted by Google. For instance, they filter out links from known link farms. Some links can cause a site to be penalized by Google. They rightly figure that webmasters cannot control which sites link to their sites, but they can control which sites they link out to. For this reason, links into a site cannot harm the site, but links from a site can be harmful if they link to penalized sites. So be careful which sites you link to. If a site has PR0, it is usually a penalty, and it would be unwise to link to it.

The best method to get ranked in Google is to get as much Back links as possible. The weightage of the backlink as the pagerank of the linking page increases. So I advice you to submit your site to as many directories as possible. It is not necessary that you have to go for featured listing, there are many sites that allow free listing with no backlinks (ofcourse, featured links can get you more visitors). Also contact other webmasters in the same field as yours (not your competitors) for link exchange.

All the best.

One way linking will do wonders for your site. You will see it slowly get back into the loop of google if you do these one way links! Depending on how fast you do it, you could get indexed very quickly and see your rank go up as well!

You can go on DP forums and purchase links. With a little bit of money you can get a lot of traffic and great page rank.

Hopefully you can get higher PR as my site went from PR1 to PR0 which is terrible considering i have put lots of work into it..

Hi,
I have already heard about the buying of links from others by my friend.I think this should be done very carefully.Because some people can cheat.And even Google can ban our site while we broken their TOS.

Yes especially nowadays google has introduced a new feature called "report paid links" so you have to be very careful.
