Disappearing off google

Phew that's a blooming relief and how bloody typical is it that it crawled the site when it was down :rotfl:

Thanks everyone for your input, much appreciated

Just had to let you all know that I checked this morning and we've been crawled again by google and are top of page 1 for our main keywords again. I am so relieved as orders had dried up since we dropped off and I got pretty worried that it was because of that alogorithm change

Orders been coming in nicely this morning again

Thanks everyone

Id suggest getting a adwords account, just in case that happens again. I wouldnt put all my eggs in one basket with google. google changes every few months.

Your site uses frames as well which is not as seo friendly. Also you may think about adding your products to froogle (which is free) and perhaps starting an affiliate programme for your site if that's cost-effective. Plus as said above - keep adding fresh content and get links to your site from other relevant sites, especially those with good Google PR (pagerank).

While relevant links are 'worth' more to googles search algo, less relevant links certainly don't have an adverse effect on your rankings. So yes, get relevant links where possible but don't discount a link because it's on a non-relevant site or that it may not be worth much. When it comes down to the various engines, all links in add value.
