MyGameScript.com - Why did I do wrong?

[Varchar]

MyGameScript.com is a PR4 domain and I was able to find it on the first or second page using any of the following keywords:

Game Script
Gamescript
Game Scripts
Gamescripts
Arcade Script
Arcadescript
Arcade Scripts
Arcadescripts

I have arcadescript.com pointing to MyGameScript.com. I also have many other versions of gamescript and arcadescript tld domains pointing there.

My server was down for a week. Guess what, most of the keyword cannot be used to find my site anymore. Can someone please point out what I did wrong? I used to get orders daily from search engine traffic.

Another thing I have noticed is that ever since I enter my customer's comment on mygamescript, all my links got removed.

Please let me know if I have done anything wrong. I would also like to know if there is anything I can do to get my site indexed once again by Google.

Thanks.

Kindly Regards,

Kawing

Are you part of any link schemes? Your server being down for a week could possibly be part of the reason. Have you implemented any new changes to the site recently that would alter your urls?

What do you mean "part of any link schemes"? I did add in one of the testimonials from one of my customer on the bottom left hand side... and looks like google has update all the search result with including that comment.

Before, when I searched for site:mygamescript.com, I know for sure I have more than 700 links. Right now is only 260.

looks like google has update all the search result with including that comment.

Add a Meta description to get around this.

It wont impact your rankings much, but it will make people click on your site more often.

Hi Varchar,

Cursory analysis of your site indicates that all of your cached pages have been listed as supplemental, as a result of your downtime.

Put simply, this means that theses are cached pages that are no longer considered to be there. I would assume that Google has performed a deep crawl during your outage. Wrong time, wrong place im afraid buddy .

I see you originally posted this in Feb, has the issue resolved itself yet?

If not, i would suggest that you submit a Reinclusion Request at the nearest opportunity.

You can select “I’m a webmaster inquiring about my website” and then select “Why my site disappeared from the search results or dropped in ranking.” Click Continue, and on the page that shows up, make sure to type “Reinclusion Request” in the Subject: line of the resulting form. Upper- or lower-case doesn’t matter, but make sure you use the words “reinclusion request” in the subject line so it gets routed to the right place.

Thanks for the tip. The issues seem to be resolved now. However, it's good to know about the cause of the problem. Thanks.

it sounds like the server problem was it. If no one is home when they come knocking, they think you skipped town.
