Re: Being Unbanned By Google And Needing Meta-tags

Hello,

My site, http://www.DebtResolutionExperts.com, was banned by Google. Being
my own (amateur) webmaster, I believe that I had too many keywords and not
enough text explaining the programs that I was offering.

I've altered my site so that Google can't consider anything on it to
constitute spamming.

Does anyone have Google's e-mail addy to which I should direct my request
to
be unbanned?

Well it doesn't look like it's banned, perhaps heavily penalized but appears
that the web site is still in the game.


Further, how long does it usually take for a site to be unbanned?

The next time your site gets spidered.

Lastly, my site lacks meta-tags. When I used WebSpawner.com for a
different
business, the Google-bot visited almost daily at about 2 am Eastern (North
America). Some of the meta-tags that WebSpawner.com automatically provided
were, for instance,
<META NAME="distribution" CONTENT="global">
<META NAME="copyright" CONTENT="Copyright 2006 . All Rights Reserved.">
<META NAME="revisit-after" CONTENT="31 days">
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="INDEX, ALL">
<META HTTP-EQUIV=LAST-MODIFIED CONTENT="2/6/2006 2:29:16">
<META HTTP-EQUIV=REVISION-FREQUENCY CONTENT="AS DATA CHANGES">

None of these are of any use in SEO

I would be most appreciative if those knowledgeable in SEO would visit my
site and then post exactly what my meta-tags should be so that the bot
will
visit it on a frequent basis, assuming that I'm unbanned.

Wow, that's some serious Keywords tag man. It surpasses 1024 characters even
though I cannot see any exact keyphrase duplications. Mind you I have seen
this used as a technique successfully, but it is rather dangerous.

Note: I know other SEO specialists are going to call me on this so here's a
good example in Google. search for "fly-in fishing" ( with no quotes ) and
check out the code for #11 www.canadianflyinfishing.net .

In general though, the keywords tag usually has little or no bearing to how
Google will respond, but other search engine like a little bit of direction
as to what specifically to rank. As far as Meta tags are concerned, you
don't really need any for Google. But I would recommend a description tag
anyway. You don't have one of those.

Incidentally, the characters in your Title tag is completely capitalized,
that's a basic no-no in SEO, As far as Head elements are concerned, I'd
suggest you focus on developing a short search engine and visitor friendly
Title.

Just a little side note here, your code has both HTML and XML styled
mark-up. Pick one or the other. It's a validation night mare that the spider
will detect. Avoid confusion. make thing as logically presented as possible
both to the visitor and the search engine crawler.
