Hi, my website <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mustangsailing.com">www.mustangsailing.com</a><!-- w --> is experiencing problems.
I have a number of pages, listed below, each of which describes a particular product, in this case shorebased sailing courses.
When checked on 30/11/2006 the search terms listed ranked between page one and page four on Google, I keep a record on Excel.
These pages are not now being displayed by google when searching on the same search terms. I am not saying they have dropped a little in the rankings, they have gone.
A search will return a less relevent page on my site such as "dates" or some other, but much lower down the rankings.
I can see that sites move up and down in the rankings, but to disappear? I think it is malicious, but how?
I feel specific pages are being blocked. I have emailed Google and notified the police - what now?
The search terms and pages they relate to are listed here:
