Try to find my site on Google now...they removed it
Simply search for 'Empire Realty' http://www.empireteam.com/ (it was always on top for that search).
For the last two months I could search for 'Empire Realty' and find my site. Now I can't.
Google was quite adept at searching my site. Google's bot came up with the different search words (keywords) pretty well for two months. We skyrocketed to the top and became the number one or close for our major keywords. Now you cannot find us at all except through other blogs or other engines.
Try doing a search for 'www.empireteam.com' and then do a search for 'www.empireteam.com upland' and you will see that the main page is buried now.
Google has attempted to erase me from the internet by removing my website from their searches. http://www.live.com/ and http://www.ask.com/ and other search engines still have my site listed, but I was high on the list until tonight. Now you cannot find my site at all.
Google blocked my site?
In a Google search for 'Empire Realty' you rank number 7.
Not surprisingly www.empirerealty ranks number one.
Start improving your SEO.
Look at the source code for empirerealty.com and see if you can better them.
Google does not erase sites, just ranks them.

Reply:google doesn't erase anything from anything...
they change and update the alogrithm they use to rank websites all the time, you or google must have changed things so that the website doesnt show anymore...try some search engine optimization(SEO)
instead of bitching, do something about it!
Reply:I did a google search on
"www.empireteam.com"
and you were the first link, and it took me to your main page.
Ditto when I appended "upland" to the end.

A Google search problem?
When you use 'yahoo answers'(no single quotation marks) as a search term to run a Google search, the 6th result is Yahoo! answers-wikipedia,the free encyclopedia, whose URL is en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_Answers. The snippet is
Yahoo! Answers is a community-driven knowledge market website launched by Yahoo! on December 13, 2005 that allows users to ask and answer questions posed by ...
But if you use "yahoo answers is" or "yahoo! answers is" and site:wikipedia.org to run another Google search, this result will be missing from the search result set.

Why does this happen?
A Google search problem?
I'm not sure I understand, but Google doesn't seem to use quotes like it once did. You just need to type in yahoo answers and it will get top listing. I always used quotes and + or - in the past, but in recent years the results have been a very mixed bag.
Reply:because first you have searched without quotes and in second query you are searching with quotes
snippet can pick part of content it may be display the text from two places. so when you searched "yahoo answers is" it is looking as it is in same order of words.
Thanks

Does Google adsense advertising program really pays?
Google adsense only cheats the webmasters.They never pay for advertising on your website.
Google is nothing but a very huge collection of garbage and dustbin material, with a very very small percent of genuinely usefull stuff.Google links to anything and everything on net and makes money by dumping the waste for free.
Google adsense simply uses the webmasters for free. They cheat and never pay anything to a number of webmasters. After using their websites for advertising for a few years, google simply closes their account on some or other grounds and doesn't pays anything to the webmasters.
Shoudn't there be more transparency and awareness on all these malpractices done by these web giants?
Does Google adsense advertising program really pays?
I have been with Google Adsense since the program was opened to the public in June 2003 and I have been VERY HAPPY with them
Google kicks out publishers if there are invalid clicks generated mostly because the publishers cheat. If the publishers simply think of ways of improving their site and their traffic -- and not focus on cheating the Google system -- then they can get the money they earn
Invalid clicks is a "catch all" term that they use, but it does not always mean that the publisher cheated. It can mean anywhere from clicking on your own ads, labeling the ads, inciting visitors to support the site and click on the ads, etc.
It will not be up to Google to prove to you how they caught what they deemed as fraudulent clicks on your site. They will not show you the IPs of those who clicked. Instead, explain to them in a very professional manner that you never caused invalid clicks and send them your logfiles to help prove your case.
You have to remember that the first responsibility of Google is to satisfy their advertisers, where the money comes from; and not the publishers. They need to protect the interests of advertisers at all cost. As a result, any clicks perceived to be less than above-board are investigated oftentimes leading to the cancellation of the account of the advertiser.
There have been many instances when the publisher who was kicked out from Adsense was taken back when the publisher proved that there was a mistake involved and they were not cheating the system. Here are some threads from Webmasterworld.com of such cases:

Reply:Google Adsense DOES pay webmasters for running ads. I've had a couple sites the past few years on which I ran ads, and over the course of a year I earned about $500. The problems you cite aren't Google's fault--they're the fault of unscrupulous webmasters who are trying to drain the advertising budgets of their competitors. Google is following such problems very closely, though. This world would be a much worse place if we didn't have companies like Google letting us know what information is out there on the Internet.

Google Adwords -- Charges for False Clicks?
I am an Adwords advertiser and recently I have been comparing my page views (how many times a visitors sees a page) to the number of clicks Google has been charging me. On November 25th, my Web site had 308 page views, but Google charged me for 705 clicks.
In any other business, that would be called fraud. Part of me wonders if Google is doing this to other Adword advertisers and that is how they are “jacking up” their revenues, thus increasing their stock price that hasn’t been seen since the “Dot.com” bubble burst in the late 1990’s.
My question is, has any one else experienced this problem and is there any legal action against Google I can take not only to help me but also other unsuspecting Adword advertisers maybe being taken advantage of without their knowledge?
Google Adwords -- Charges for False Clicks?
Didn't you get your google LCD picture frame? Your supposed to look at your children and not at your stats.
Google just settled a class action lawsuit on click-fraud.
Reply:First of all, I would recommend comparing clicks to visits, not clicks to page views. Pageviews are naturally going to be a bit higher because each time a page is loaded, even within the same session, it will be tracked as a new pageview.
In other words, suppose User A clicks on your ad and goes to your landing page. This would be tracked as 1 click and 1 pageview. Now suppose User A clicks around your site and comes back to the same landing page. This will be tracked as 2 pageviews. User A may also refresh the same landing page, tracking even more pageviews.
Visits are a more accurate metric to compare with clicks because they are based on a single, unique session. In otherwords, User A clicks on your ad and comes to your site. This will be tracked as 1 click and 1 visit.
However, keep the following in mind:
A visitor may click your ad multiple times. When one person clicks on one advertisement multiple times in the same session, AdWords will record multiple clicks while Analytics recognizes the separate pageviews as one visit. This is a common behavior among visitors engaging in comparison shopping.
A user may click on an ad, and then later, during a different session, return directly to the site through a bookmark. The referral information from the original visit will be retained in this case, so the one click will result in multiple visits.
A visitor may click on your advertisement, but prevent the page from fully loading by navigating to another page or by pressing their browser's Stop button. In this case, the Analytics tracking code is unable to execute and send tracking data to the Google servers. However, AdWords will still register a click.
To ensure more accurate billing, Google AdWords automatically filters invalid clicks from your reports. However, Analytics reports these clicks as visits to your website in order to show the complete set of traffic data.

Google.com not working?
i know other people have had this problem and ive already checked the other "yahoo answers" but it didnt help. Ok i have 2 pc's networked with a linksys router. The desktop works fine with google....but on the wireless notebook google.com or google earth or trying to ping google.com will NOT work. Is it my router, pc settings, browser settings or anything i can change to make this work.?
Google.com not working?
Hi there. For these sorts of issues, I generally like to troubleshoot based on the OSI model. This consists of working your way up from the physical medium to the MAC to routing, etc. I will assume you have a NAT behind your router with IP's that look like 192.168.1.x. The wireless NIC in your laptop is probably setup to use DHCP. If using Windows, go to Start-%26gt;Run and type cmd, then Hit Enter. This will bring up a command prompt with a black background. Type "ipconfig /all" to verify what network hardware Windows recognizes. You're looking for wireless, obviously. For the wireless card, you should have an IP that starts off with either 192. or 10. If you don't, you need to start troubleshooting from here. Is the wireless card enabled or disabled? Does Device Manager show the proper drivers for your wifi card? Hold your Windows key down on the keyboard and press the Pause/Break key at the top right of your keyboard to display System Properties, then choose Hardware-%26gt;Device Manager. If you DO have what looks to be a legitimate IP address, can you ping the wired computer? Go to your command prompt and type ping %26lt;ip assigned to wired computer%26gt;. If the ping requests work, try doing an nslookup from the command prompt to verify what IP address google uses. DNS uses a mechanism to convert IP addresses to hostnames. In this case, I performed an nslookup on google.com and received the following output for the IP address:
64.233.167.99, 72.14.207.99, 64.233.187.99
This generally means that google is using three different servers for load balancing, most likely. Now, can you ping any of these IP addresses from your command prompt by typing "ping 64.233.167.99" for instance? If you're successful, you have a DNS issue on your hands. No big deal, really. On your other computer, go to the website that corresponds to your Internet Service Provider. I use Knology for my high speed cable connection so www.knology.com would be what I was looking for. On the website, you're looking for their primary and secondary nameserver addresses, or, you may see it called something similar such as Primary DNS, Secondary DNS. Go ahead and plug those IP addresses into your wifi card's properties section and choose Ok to save changes. You may need to type "ipconfig /release" then "ipconfig /renew" or even reboot your machine. I've seen some pretty finicky Windows boxes. All this changes if you're using another operating system, but since most of the home users are using Windows currently, I'll have to assume.
If you need clarification on the information I've provided, you can either respond here or google the terminology. I like the "define:" operand you can use in the search box for Google.
Hope this helps,

Reply:I would guess that it is your browser settings. Have you tried going into your internet options and deleting all cookies and temporary internet files and trying again. Also if you have a firewall software or antivirus program installed on the laptop you might try disabling it temporarily and trying to access google.com again, just until you isolate the problem. good luck!

Google out of service?
Yesterday I was working and using Google.com all the time. Around 11pm (CT) I try Google for a new search and I couldn't believe that the server was out of service. however, I am still cannot access the Google web site.
Someone is having this problem?
This started yesterday while I was setting up my account at Google AdWords.
I am not getting re-direct for another www or even having pop up screen on my desktop. It's just keep loading loading loading and loading ...
Also, I have installed PC Tools Firewall and !Avast Anti-virus

I dont suppose its an issue with any of the updates you did and NOR the issue with google. Its sometimes the way your browser behaves when you have a disconnectivity of network for a brief moment OR if there is an issue with the cache OR if there were some JRE/Java downloads that happened.
Clear your cache with all the browsers closed. Try again.. It works !!
