For Andem & Sunflower

Hi there I have some good news for you. If your sites were banned from the index for spamming you would never receive the reply that the matter has been forwarded to their engineers.

Should be less than two weeks from when you received the letter till you are back in.

Sunflower go get your money back from those you refunded as you cannot be held responsible for a 3rd parties actions, from where I see things your site was still online and presenting the ads

Remember advertisers pay based on the average amount of eyes that could possibly view the ads. As such a billboard company does not return revenue to advertisers, because the road is closed due to construction or an accident or other such reason.

Don't forget for both of you, that even if Google hiccups,,you both should have a high bookmark rate with yor readers/visitors due to the nature of your websites.

Look in your stats from your webhost this will tell you usuallly what percentage of traffic is bookmarked / repeat visitors, if not I suggest you invest in a web analytics package.

Have a great rest of the day.
