Nippi, I agree. After months of reading, changing , testing etc I believe one of THE main factors is duplicate content. Sure is for me anyhow. The very last thing we identified is the Overture/Yahoo partner feed of content match ads that is delivered to my site using xml. Therefore these ads are integrated into the html of the page. We are obviously not allowed to alter the wording of these ads, so we are left with 2-3 paragraphs of effectively copied content per page (as we have 2 or 3 ads at the bottom of each page).

So what we have just done is to bring in these ads through an iFrame from another domain. We will wait a week or so for Google to completely re-spider, then resubmit a reinclusion request. Fingers crossed.
