Hey, my website suddenly dropped all of its rankings in Google. I used to have several first page rankings for terms such as "temecula mortgage company", "california mortgage brokers" and others, but now not even in the top 100. What happened?

www.lendinghandsmortgage.com

I checked my site as follows in Google: site:lendinghandsmortgage.com

And it shows almost all of my pages are being dropped. What should I do?

You probably lost a few high quality links from high PR sites.

Try to get a few more

Could have been the recent update. Google just changed their SERPS big time.

Thanks for the hints, but I was told in another forum if you check your site as follows:

site:lendinghandsmortgage.com

And it shows pages without a description, that means that those pages are being dropped by Google. So losing links wouldn't drop my site, just lower the rankings. Same with the update, my site may lose rankings, but an update shouldn't mean I'm being dropped unless they feel something is wrong with my pages.

try adding a keyword to the end of your search, like this site:lendinghandsmortgage.com mortgage. You will then see the descriptions.

Correct, yet it appears all of my link pages are being dropped though. Would you agree that's what it means?

It appears that your site was updated by Google just two days ago.
(www.lendinghandsmortgage.com/ - 33k - Feb 23, 2005) according to the search results. Are you still experiencing problems?

My horror movie site was on page 3 in google. Now it's been knocked to page 5. But when I checked AOL, my site is still on page 3 in their search. So maybe it's the updates. AOL is a good way of telling whether or not your site has fallen to a certain point in google.
