One of my sites is banned from Google for several months. The site is a very old site and 1-2 years ago I removed the content and I parked it.

At January 2008 I started a blog there, I post 5-6 times at day and the site has many backlinks (new ones and old ones).

I filled up a Reinclution Request from Google´s Webmaster Tools 2-3 months ago but, after 5 months my site is still not listed at Google.

Any ideas for me?

Parked it how? What was on the parked page? The typical popunder mess that most parked domains present?

What Blog Platform are you using? Are you up to date on all the latest security patches, etc? Are you certain that your Blog is secure?

There may be something still not right with it. I'd probably go through again with a fine tooth comb, make sure all is okay and then file another reinclusion request.

Any ideas for me?

I think the parking may have "tarnished" the reputation of the domain. You'll have to restablish that reputation and I'm not too certain that a Blog would be the best way to do that. I'm not sure. But the pattern of going from a parked domain to a blog would probably raise a flag from an algo standpoint.

I parked at a Casino parking.

At this moment I´m using a Word Press Blog platform, and yes the scripts are up to date and secure.

I will try another reinclusion request.

Strike 1 maybe?

Were you able to avoid all the recent WordPress hacks?

Always a safe option. :)
