Duplicate Content Got Me Deindexed

14 years ago

I would hire someone to throw a few bookmarks at each of the 50 pages to get them some attention from google and see if that helps. It would be a cheap way to start off.

Extract those 50 URL and give 2-4 dofollow links. Make few web2 properties with linking to these pages. take all feed (ur actual url + web2) and submit it to feed directories and bookmark them... will take 6-7 hours of work but will come out nicely

Thanks

Take out all the dup pages, clean up your blog a bit and:

1. ping the site
2. submit fresh sitemap
3. ping rss feed
4. submit rss feed

Unfortunately, it usually takes a couple of days at least to get Google to come back...if not a couple of weeks when something like this happens.

Why not add the site to your sig here? It will assure that the bots get back to it as quickly as any type of bookmark.

I always recommend that Content is King and one must have great content on the website. Great content maybe defined as unique, relevant and appealing and the content must be updated at regular intervals.
The basic idea is to get the websites crawled as often as possible.
I guess its one of the best and most genuine way as if one has a shopping website, he can add new products that would get the website crawled and obviously new product would also would attract new clients.

Both new posts are now indexed. I hope the Google bots will see the rest of the pages on the website and reindex them.

This is typical when you make massive changes to a site. That's why I rarely change themes or coding on a site even though I'd like to. Sometimes, though, you have to bite the bullet and take a hit in ranks to do it.

My weekend traffic is still the same as it has been over the past few weeks. One page that had gone away has gotten reindexed already.
I'm hoping the rest can get back up over the next few days.
Thank you everyone for your suggestions.

Another thing you can do is to request for site reconsideration via google webmaster tools. Tell them what happened and you rectified the problem. It should get back up to speed after they review your site and see it's all good

Dude,

Google always looks for quality rather than quantity. Remember, with duplicate content on your website, you won't get much benefit. Always chase for quality by putting unique and highly informative content on your blog.

As of now, you can delete the duplicate content from your website and commence promoting it again. Hopefully, you will get indexed in a day or two.
- Thanks

I didn't notice it.. but today after seeing a comment from a reader I found out and immediately rectified the error.

I just checked and around 50 pages from the 150+ that I have on the website are deindexed totally.

This is one of my bigger websites and accounts for a good part of my income. If anyone has gone through this, I'd appreciate a guideline of how long it takes for those pages to get reindexed... and hopefully ranking at the same place they were before they went.

it could easily be done very soon if you have a Google web masters account for ur website....there is a option to remove already indexed page and request to add new pages....this is the quick way......other way is to link the page with new changes fron some good places like digg and other social media network.....or if all this does not work then consult some good internet marketing vendor like ASearchOnline.com for the same issue....well i hope above two ways will help.....

Thanks

  Hi Davioli,
  
  You are probably addressing a robot. That spambot/member manage to drop 10 backlinks with that one useless post. Perhaps I'm wrong, but 10 keyword links in one signature, a one line post that is totally out of context for the thread conversation, smells like spambot to me.
  
  Thanks
