My Site Has Disappeared - Why?

Google picked up my new site before the last Dance, but only two pages: the front and one inside.
This month, the inside page has disappeared, and now the index page has gone too from Google.
There are various sites around the globe - on theme - showing the site details but that's it.
Bit of a mystery - not happened to me before. Any ideas?
Regards

my status has been scrambled around over the past few days. A week ago, "similar links" gave me a list of every page in the site that is indexed, plus a dozen back links, now all it shows is my index, my ODP link and a link to a site I've never heard of.(keyword searchs still show all my pages in the SERPs)
My PR has not changed nor has my google directory.
I also noticed that the same sites I bumped for #1 in the past dance, have bumped me back and none have PR changes.
And its the same on www2.
What IS up?

I forgot to add that two inside pages are recorded by their file names only - no TITLE and no TEXT.
So why has Google bothered to record this bare information - it can't be searched on and is valueless.

Same here. I have a lot PR2 Pages (around 500) which disappeared from Google with the last Update. When I do a search for my Domain-Name, Google says that 1,320 Pages where found, which is not true. Besides the backlinks only 8 pages from my site are shown if I click "more results". Those are links to pages, which have no Pagerank... Weird..

Henley,
This is normal for a new site. Wait until the next update and you should get in. Usually a new site needs at least two months to get in properly. And regarding those indexed pages that are only file names: Google might have found them on other sites that link to you. They keep them for now until they come back and take a more thorough look at them. Cheers!
