Default Google sucks...

Ok...ok Google is by far the best search engine that I have ever used.  The issue is that for some reason they took Netsmog.com out of their database a few days ago.  I noticed this while search through some of the logs; we used to get over 200 hits a day from Google and google.yahoo.com and now we get none!  I did some test search and netmsog.com does not come up EVER.  I emailed them, however, I did not receive a response back from them yet.  Has anyone else heard of something like this happening with Google or any other search engine?

Thanks
Keefe

Well you're right a search with Google bring up only posts about Netsmog but no Netsmog actual links. You must have done something they do not approve of to be removed.

You do come up on Teoma though, and there are plenty of links in Google still that point back to you so I wouldn't worry all too much.

I would look back though over your promotion practices and see what may have been a no-no and correct it. Tactics to promote that are not so legit will get you gone quick once the search engine figures it out.

That teoma search isn't really smart, more like "straight to the point"
It even listed all help files from cheflab.com.
