Default Where did the links go? - 02-14-2006 , 05:02 PM






I run a small web design firm. I get my clients started with search
engine placement, but don't really offer or promote SEO services. I
usually can achieve a PR of about 3 or 4 for my clients' sites. In the
past week or so, the vast majority of listings of links to my clients'
sites have disappeared from Google link: searches, although they still
show up in similar link: searches in Yahoo, MSNSearch, etc. So far, I
have not seen drops in PR's, but I'm concerned that's next.

Most of these links were what I thought to be legit link resources, but
I've included a few common examples below. All of these have recently
disappeared from Google link: searches. I'd appreciate any feedback
regarding what might be going on, and whether Google would likely
interpret these as link spamming:
http://visitgeorgetowncountysc.com/ - Business directory for local
Visitor's Bureau
http://georgetowncountychamber.com/ - Business directory for local CofC
http://www.wacweb.com/portfolio.htm - My website's online portfolio
http://www.ricefields.org/sponsors.htm - Sponsor's page for local
community website

Thanks for your help.

Google is updating its physical infrastructure at the moment so weird
results are to be expected. I'd give it a few weeks yet.
