Hey guys,
My website was ranking on the bottom of first page/top of the second page for 4 keywords and some long tails, but now it's nowhere to be seen in the SERPS (at least not in the top 150) since the past 5 days for any of the 4 keywords. The domain is 1 year old, and it's a thin affiliate site with 4 or 5 pages of content. I was building links few days before the slap/dance occurred. Whats the likelihood that my site got slapped by google and what course of action should I follow to get out of it? I was building links using 4 anchor texts so it's not like I was over-optimising. I have stopped building links right now. Anybody reckons that a google dance (if mine is one) can last for around a week?
