Hi,

sorry for my bad english ;) i'm new in this forum...

i have a little problem. my site has 6 month along a PR of 3. Last Dance was okay. But today, i look on my site in the toolbar and this is GRAY!

But the Googlebot is at this time on my site and indexing. i have tested "ADD URL" on google-website and the message for this domain was okay, not "banned" in the answer after "add url".

If i search my website, i can not found in the index. what is that?!?!

Hi Rainmain,

Does Google have any reason to have penalised you?

One of my sites is gray too. A few months ago I thought I was banned but Google said no. I then was PR4 for a while and then this month gray. I'll just wait it out till next update. This particular site is not that important.

Actually one of my sites has turned grey today. Has google changed something that has affected us?

Rainmain,

If your site is clean and you've been listed successfully for the last six months, it may be some kind of anomoly somewhere. I would wait for the next update before I began to panic.

In the meantime, double check any outgoing links you have and make sure you're not linking to any "bad neighbourhoods" etc.
