    Hey Guys
    I have three main sites:
    (http://www.dominateonlinepoker.com) (portal, lots of new content every week, pr 2, 1 year old)
    (http://www.yesfreecash.come) (portal, not a lot of new content, pr 2, 1 year old)
    (http://www.dominatesportsbetting.com) (sales page, static content, pr1, 1 year old)
    Two weeks back, google punished dominateonlinepoker and dominatesportsbetting HUGELY!
    i used to rank page 1 for like 10 keywords per site and now im on page 6,7,8 and even further.
    With dominateonlinepoker its really messed up as the keywords i should rank well for with my homepage now come up with some inner page that have nothing to do with it
    for instance, when you search for free online poker, it now shows the free bankroll site on page 12, it used to show my homepage (as it should be) on page 5
    i thought this was temporarily but my serps wont come back, i have really bad rankings now!!
    I did ALOT of article posting with backlinks, article trading, links exchanging etc and keep buildign good content (though not on dominatesportsbetting) .. what do you guys think google dislikes about my site all of a sudden?
    what do i need?
    pls give me advice!

    Is all your content unique?
    e.g.on xxxwww.onlinemaverick.info/ in the poker progress section i find 7 identical sentences as on your homepage.

    and not sure if this causes any problem in your case, but your site is reachable with www and without

    As Elgoog mentioned SE’s sometime consider this as duplicate content. I suggest choosing either one of them and using 301’s to redirect the other.

    You could ask your host.
    But I think it’s ok if they can be reachd with and without www.

    thank you Cat
    I did already contact my host and waiting on a reply

    I been reading at some sites
    and google itself says
    its not good to have a site reachable with and without www
    and i have then to all that the main site also with the index.html
    so this is 3 different URLs for a Search Engine.
    Or do i misunderstand it?

    [url]XXXhttp://www.mattcutts.com/blog/seo-advice-url-canonicalization/[/url]

    http://www.example.com
    example.com/
    http://www.example.com/index.html
    example.com/home.asp
    But technically all of these urls are different. A web server could return completely different content for all the urls above. When Google “canonicalizes” a url, we try to pick the url that seems like the best representative from that set.

    That is definitely not a good thing, you need to have the site reachable only under one of the two URLs.

    but this is just not so easy to do
    due I cant access my htaccess file

    I panicked about this about six months ago (looking for any and every reason why I wouldn’t be indexed!)

    While it’s true that canonicalization issues can cause duplicate penalties, sometimes your host will allow access with or without www. It’s not that you have two identical sites, just that your host re-routes traffic to the same site.

    If your host does that (mine does) it can seem like a problem when in fact it isn’t – but you’re right to check with your host.

    This is what they told me:

    fortunepalace.co.uk is your domain, http://fortunepalace.co.uk and http://www.fortunepalace.co.uk are both valid URLs to enter the same site that you have uploaded and both display the same content.

    Since then, Google has indexed me fully, so I’ve stopped worrying about it!

    When you go to google webmaster groups, this is repeatedly cited as a problem and folks are routinely asked to make sure this works properly.

    For some reason google doesn’t always pick up on it and some people may live with it for years, but at other times it does get picked up and rankings drop.

    My friend who is a seo expert says the 301 redirecting has already been done and if it hasnt, it still doesnt explain why i would rank very well for 11 months when this was the same, does it?

    my sites went down after i bought a blog posting from imteaz and i had done this a couple of times before, but i now bought 5 articles with 3 backlinks each, pointing to all my sites, and they got posted the same time (my own mistake) … only 2 of 5 websites got penalized though and thats dominatesportsbetting and dominateonlinepoker..and they got penalized very very hard

    Such a huge drop all of a sudden is very weird!

    Joris

    anyway, im not an seo expert or site technician, so anyone ready to help out is welcome and I will pay accordingly.
    i dont understand how to install the plugin kaus and I dont know too much about html, im just a content writer who works with wordpress..

    Don’t spend money on an SEo expert, I advise against it. Too many out there who really don’t know anything that would help.

    There could be any number of reasons.

    I would go here http://groups.google.com/group/Google_Webmaster_Help-Indexing/topics?hl=en .

    Any kind of bought links, excessive link exchanges, etc can put you in the dumpster. Linking to bad neighborhoods can too.

    There are a zillion things really that can cause this. You will learn a lot by just reading the above board every day for a while, all the stuff keeps coming up repeatedly so you will likely learn a lot quickly.

    Google DOES have employees looking there, and if you ask a question you have to give a link to your site and be prepared for scrutiny.

    die 301 doet het in elk geval niet op dominateonlinepoker….
    en zoals eerder uitgelegd kan dat wel/niet/soms of op een onbepaald moment tot problemen lijden…

    (srry for dutch, a bit lazy)

    wahhhhh
    Bravenet my hosting did reply th following

    www mirrors what is on onlinekasinoportal.com. Web browsers will store this website as two separate addresses, though most search engines are smart enough to know that they are the same website. We can not help you make onlinekasinoportal.com redirect to http://www.onlinekasinoportal.com.

    What i do now?
    I really cant change now hosting!

    add the site to google webmastertools/sitemaps
    in there you can at least tell google what your preference is
