hey guys ..thanks for the input.

the latest news - the banned site bounce back for the keyphase 'widget deals' but 'free widget' remained mystery. i am also seeing that my SERP for a non competative terms- my site name 'widget+(another irrelevant word)' suffered a rank drop of 30 places.

from all the observations i am getting, it seems like the hit was not as hard as it's first look. i am planning to rebuild my whole site within the next three weeks and restructure the internal linking system.

robotsdobetter,
thanks a lot for your advise-i wonder may i get more from you if i sticky you my URL.
as you said
"Even if you do contact them, they likely won't lift the penalty off your web site."
--thus, i don't think contacting G helper will do any good.
also,
"While your waiting just do what ever you were doing before with the web site and I am not talking about link development."
--hmm, seems like option (b) is not a good approach ...

mayor,
"Also, two new sites for each one booted. "
-- huh?
