Our site was doing very well until earlier today..

I was rather suprised to see visits from XXXXXX.google.com ...it was NOT GOOGLEBOT. It seemed as if someone from google ' mountain view' was visiting our site during the last week or so. Our ranking went up slightly during the course of the week.

Then this morning ..its gone entirely from the index.

The site's been up for last four five years and does not do any black hat stuff- although we did add a link exchange script recently which links with related sites like web designers or hosting companies.
