(Continued) The RFS Newsletter, Sept. 17, 2005. Page 14

My first suggestion to you would be to write a friendly email to Google explaining in detail what has happened and telling them "everything" they need to know, even if there "are" certain things you have done which you know you shouldn't have. The people at Google are also humans and they know that sometimes, site owners will run into trouble, either by lack of proper knowledge or, as is sometimes the case, there could have been a few violations or abuses in their Terms of Use policies. Also, keep in mind that, over the past two years, Google has made some huge changes to its search algorithms and that could be a significant reason for some of your drop in rankings. If such is the case, you're not alone and it may tell you that your site needs a bit more optimization or some 'tweaking' in your keywords or key phrases, in relationship to the rest of your site. Hope that helps.

Question -- Serge, how long can it take for my website to be listed in the search engines? It's been over a month now, and still no signs of any traffic from any SE.

The sad truth to this question is that there are no set rules or guidelines that dictate how much time it can take.
