Hi Guys,
I just have a quick question regarding one of my websites which got Google slapped back in April last year. Most of the pages (95%) of my website are still indexed in goggle but they are no where to be found even in the top 100 results.

I took my website down from the web in December last year and recently put it back online. The question that I have is if using the same domain name would be OK or will getting a new domain name be more profitable in this case.

Appreciate your help in advance.

    Almost impossible to answer with you doing more homework and finding out what the issue is. Because if you don't know, you'll probably just make the same mistake again on a new domain and get hit by the same Google penalty.

    What you need to figure out is if it was Panda or Penguin issue. If Panda, then it's a content issue and you need better content. If Penguin, then it's probably an anchor text issue and you need to diversify more.

      Thanks for the reply Voasi, The question that I want to ask is if it is possible to recover an old domain from penguin or panda penalties? Or getting a new domain is better.

    I suggest you get a new domain name and do a page-for-page 301 redirect from the old site, to the new site.
