Alexa banned..
PR0 ...
No backward links, no cache in Google.
Very strange, couldn`t get it.. Might be wrongly banned like business.com was few months back.

But still couldn`t get it..

In terma of Alexa, 52000 > 65000. SO you actually dropped in rankings.
Getting in top 10000 is good, but rankings in Alexa can be easily manipulated. I for one, don`t trust them much.

Crackdown on directories maybe?

Maybe so.

We can add another one to the list: www.site-sift.com

It's a shame because all three of these are great directories. I do get some traffic from each, although not a lot. Regardless, having a presence in these directories is an important part of our marketing strategy.

The owners of these directories have put a good deal of time, effort, and money into building them. Hopefully, they will all continue to do well in spite of being excluded from G's index.

Could that be because they are scrapping dmoz content instead of having their own directory?
