We have many websites, most are 6-7 years old. About 7 months ago one of our oldest websites that was a pr 6 and around 4 years old suddenly had the homepage removed from Google and all of its pagerank dropped to a 0.

We really didnt change anything with the site except the usual updating and such and after spending months looking over the site and not finding anything wrong with it we are debating filling out a reinclusion request.

When looking at the form though it says you have to admit we did something wrong. We honestly cant see anything we did wrong, its all manual unique content, its not spammy at all and has a dmoz and free yahoo listing and lots of good inbound links.

Google still crawls the site heavilly and still adds pages of the site with some being in normally and some going supp but the homepage is still dropped out totally and still a pr 0 6 months later. We checked as best we could for hijacking or canicol stuff but couldnt see anything.

Any help here is appreciated, would you admit that you did something wrong even though you didnt just to maybe have a chance that the website gets reincluded or would you not bother?

Have you tried site:www.yoursite.com operator on all known datacenters?

Maybe you can write something to the effect:

I admit I have done something very wrong, which I haven't discovered yet what it was ;-)

I have tried that and we have listed pages but the homepage is toast, it went poof almost overnight with no changes to the page in years, actually since the sites launch except for updates. I thought for sure it was a error onpage but we have had several people check it out and it comes back perfect and is crawled in yahoo and msn perfectly.

I just do not understand how a site can go from pr6 to 0 and delisted overnight after 4 or 5 years but still be activly crwaled and have innerpages appear. I guess I can try the reinclusion form at this point, what could it hurt right? I just hate admitting to something that we didnt do.
