Wonder why search engine ranking took a toll? Perhaps Google took a manual spam action

Not sure, whether your site is still in the Google Index? Perform a site search on Google with your website details (e.g. site:domain.com). If the site does not show up, this indicates that your website gets prohibited for breach of Google webmaster guidelines.

In a case, Google prohibited a website, businesses can request for ‘reconsideration’ after necessary corrections and updates (in accordance with rules and principles of Google) on their website.

After the latest Penguin 2.0 algorithm update, Google has started taking SEVERE actions against all SPAM links on the web, to keep the search engine a ‘less polluted’ and a ‘friendlier’ place for the Internet users.

If your website used to rank earlier and the rankings dropped all of a sudden after the Penguin update, then this is a ‘warning sign’ that Google took manual spam action against your website.
