What Happens When My Site IS De-Indexed?

I created a site last year for Halloween - Saloon Halloween Costumes

The site was actually doing pretty well, making $15 before the start of October 2010. But, during the last week of September last year, it disappeared from the rankings and still has not returned.

At first, I figured that it was just in the Google Sandbox. But I just checked today, and it is actually de-indexed:

site:http://www.saloonhalloweencostumes.org

I was creating about 5 posts per day for somewhere around 20 days. After that, I just stopped because it was doing fine. The only backlinking I did was just some Forum posting on Halloween forums.

Is there anything I can do to get it re-indexed?

Did it get de-indexed because my posting just stopped?

Thanks for the help!

    Well, look on the bright side. You have 7 months or so to get
    it back up!

    But it's not deindexed. I found it just fine.

    Funny thing, google suggested I search for the .net.

    I might put a little bit of content above the fold, however.

    And your site is just showing for saloonhalloweencostumes.org,
    not www .saloonhalloweencostumes.org. I would do a redirect.
    (space is on purpose for non link)

    If you were disappointed in your results today, lower your standards tomorrow.

      Oops

      Yes, thank you for helping me out.

      That was one of my first sites, so it will definitely be different come September.
