Thank you Awall19,

Now I understand. This seems a bit strange for me, considering the sites premis is advertising. I will go hunting. Thanks for the clarity in that last post.

Isn`theer something you can do to get google PR back again, or come out of google penalty. I have heard you can write a mail to help@google.com
after removing all your black SEO.

But it take around 3-6 months. How much of this thing is true?

Most penalties are automated, and only last for 30 days. If you did something really, really nasty then you might need to write to webmaster@google.com with "Reinclusion Request" in the subject line.

I like that one John.

If I was Google, I don't think I would put the site back-in. Heck, you cheated the system they built deliberatly. Why consider sending you traffic when it was demonstrated that you advertise through their medium fraudulantly?

Sometimes the penalties are mistakenly applied. For example, I had webmaster-forum.net and it was mistakenly hit with the expired domain filter. Went from PR7 to PR1, and was nowhere in the search results.

Talked to GoogleGuy about it and found out it had been mistakenly hit with the expired domain filter, and he could care of it so we had our rankings and PR back by the following update.

I never even realised that.
