Sitelinks Disappeard For My Site
-
Hi Guys
I noticed that all the sitelinks for my site has disappeared.
Could it be because of recent changes that I made to the site or maybe because I submitted a new sitemap for my site?
Should I ask the googlebot to fetch my site now again after I submitted my sitemap and also ask to re-index it?
I also read somewhere else that Google could be re-indexing my site and thus still needs to determine what my sitelinks is going to be.
If somebody could please give me some advice on this I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Dave

My sitelinks disappeared last week. I was frantically searching for reasons why and then 10 minutes later it was back. I wouldn't get too stressed for now. Wait and see if they come back. Google may be experimenting with some algo changes and perhaps they only show sitelinks for certain queries and not every single time.

Hi,
Sitemap is not a reason of disappearing of your site-links. Please check the URL which you have resubmitted for example if your site is index with www or you have submitted your sitemap without www version URLs, and also check preferred version in Google webmaster tool. If you have set your sitelinks in Google webmaster then don't worry only check the new sitemap.

Why Did Our Site Disappear for 6 Months?
Hello! The company that I work for recently hired a company to do their SEO. After they took over we fell out of the search engines for our keywords for 6 months! (I had previously done the SEO using Moz, but had to step down due to my husband getting cancer. He's all better and I'm back. 🙂 ) We contacted the SEO company recently to find out why the only way we could be found in the search engines was if we searched on our name. The reason they gave was Penguin, Panda, and Hummingbird. I personally don't believe that would cause our site to disappear for 6 months then miraculously reappear for our keywords a few days after us complaining. One of my main concerns is they have submitted us to 140 directories and 20 social bookmarking sites. How do I tell if these are good or bad sites? A few of them I've clicked are suspended and one Google warns about malicious content and to leave immediately - so those are obvious. Thanks for your help! Kelley Insana

How does nudity on a site affect search results?
One of my clients sells lingerie and with it being lingerie there are a fair few photos of bottoms and some exposed breasts. Gosh. Anyway I know how this affects Adwords campaigns - Google classifies the site as 'adult' and your ads don't show anywhere. I also know how it affects image searches. However how does it affect text seaches?? Are rankings demoted because of nudity? I've worked with a clothing site with some nudity on it before and this didn't affect it, but would love to hear from anyone with specific experience of thisThanks

Are Wordpress sites being dinged by Google? Read a few articles regarding.
I read a couple "SEO" related articles that sites built in Wordpress are going to be dinged by Google because Google sees Wordpress sites as simple to make and a higher potential to be "spammy". Is there any truth to this? Your thoughts? I do give "thumbs up" and "best answer" marks and appreciate receiving thumbs up myself... Thanks

Good time to start a niche site?
I am wondering, with all the recent changes in the algorithm, is this a good time to start a niche site? I know this can be fairly subjective, depending on the niche. But, anyone think this is a good opportunity?

Alexa Site Audit
Hello All, I run an Alexa Site Audit report for my client. Is it normal that my Alexa site audit report will be public i.e. S3 URL for downloading the PDF file was open to anyone knowing the URL. No re-direct to login etc was there? Yes the S3 URL is funny but Google bots have ways to find this funny URLs so is this normal? If you have tried Alexa can you repeat the problem i.e. typing your S3 report URL? can you get it to? or is it just me. I have asked Alexa about it. I think there should be some security. Thanks.

Schedule for Panda / Farmer Update rollout for non English sites?
Hey Mozzers, I just read about the global rollout of googles Panda/Farmer Update for English queries, e.g. at searchengineland. Has anyone read something about when google is planning to roll out the update for non-English speaking countries, i.e. queries in other languages? I googled a bit but couldn't find anything, not even speculations. Cheers, Frank
