This site was ranked #1 for a long time, I never had to do any offsite SEO because it is a small market and it ranked on its own, Well now this site is gone and no where to be found. A quick look at google webmasters tells a tale.

    What tale?
    It doesn't say anything that can shade any light on SEO.

    What is your keywords base?
    What ranks you in SERP and how you get to #1 place?

        Well if you think its because of those links. Conatact the owners of those sites and ask for a site wide removal of them. If that fails to have them removed, use the Google Disavow tool and disavow on a domain level easy enough.

        Well, first of all never ask questions if you already have answers.
        Second, what da F*** backlinks have to do with SEO?

        We have backlinks and yet our site is coming up in SERP because we have
        strong keyword foundation without which our and your site is nothing.

        If you have problem, it's coming from Hummingbird that see your keywords
        as something week and expendable in favor of stronger keywords.

                    That's right nothing and specially in his case whereas links are out of his control..
                    I don't see OP showing any evidence he got something from G. except backlinks count
                    so, where is any proof that this is not just simple adjustment made because of keywords?
                    Why everything must be back links?

                    You wanna prove that you're smarter than a 5th grader, then why don't you take out
                    from you mouth whatever you're sucking on and prove me wrong or get lost.

                    And BTW you genius, are you agree that Matt never said that:
                    backlinks never were 1/200 part of the serp algo as@Dmreed4311 claims?

    Looks like a real easy cleanup if it was. But that chart could indicate anything, like maybe a few sites just gave you site-wide links from a site with lots of low quality pages, or a low quality site in general.

            When did matt ever say that backlinks were 1/200 part of the serp algo?
            I think if that was true no one would ever in the history of SEO create one backlink because it would be pointless.

    You need to go by # of linking domains not links. This is a basic SEO misconception. 500 single links from 500 domains > then 3.2 million for 30 domains all else equal.

    Fastreplies,

    Google has stated that backlinks are one of over 200 signals they use in determining rankings. However, all signals are not equal, so backlinks are not 1/200th of the ranking.

    Now please tone down your comments and keep from attacking other members.

        Read my post again. I said backlinks are 1 of over 200 ranking factors. However, all the ranking factors are not equal. Nobody knows any kind of percentages, but backlinks could easily be 40-50% of the rankings or more.

          Right, they could be less that 1%?
          So claiming that backlinks is the sole reason is as stupid as to claim that white is not

    I would venture to say that massive ranking drops are caused more often by issues with backlinks than from any other cause. I really cannot imagine anyone would argue with that.

      I wish people were clear about what ranking they are talking about Ranking in SERP or in PR
      that slimy green gif on GTB.

      For argument sake, can you be clear which one is on your mind?

    And good luck proving that backlinks make up less than 1% of a site's ranking. I would love to see some evidence proving that.

    I'm not looking for sites ranking for junk with no backlinks. Show us a site in a highly competitive niche ranking with no backlinks.

      Junk? Not according to SERP

      Well, lets define "no backlinks".
      Can we claim that 0 to 5 backlinks site have "no backlinks"?
      or
      Can site with PR 0 or 1 considered to be a site with "no backlinks"?

    Nowhere in this conversation was anyone talking about PageRank, but you can't have PR without links.

      Of course SERP.
      OK, try Google for: strongest web directories
      and look for bestdirectorieslist.com right next to our amray.com

        Not a competitive search term.

        And both of those sites have tons of backlinks, so I don't understand what your point is.

          Of course " not competitive".
          Then what is for that sort of web site you would call "competitive"?
          Be my guest, tell me.

          What tons are you talking about?
          bestdirectorieslist.com has 5 backlinks...
          5 backlinks, amongst 20 sites around it with PR 5 and higher, are you kidding me?

          Now about: best directories list on page #1, still not good?

          As to AMRAY Directory, it's just happen to be in the neighborhood, we have it
          normally on page #1. Check: free listing

                  I don't know why you guys are seeing him ranked, he's not ranked where I'm at.

                  I checked with both Chrome Incognito & Rank Checker, same results.

    Its quite simple, if you didn't build or pay for the links on the porn sites (or other sites) then your site was targeted.

    Were you previously ranking well and that's why you have been targeted?
