Default "Real Estate Webmasters" google search - issues?

I was trying to find my way to the site / forum on a different PC (that doesn't have my saved favorites) so I googled "Real Estate Webmasters".

Oddly enough, REW didn't show up anywhere on the big G and I went 4-5 pages deep). Anyone else seeing the same thing?

Hopefully things are OK.

p.c. Moderators, please feel free to delete or relo this message if it's not appropriate / sutiable for this category.

No need to delete it - certainly something seems to be up, was just reported to me via PM - need some time to look into it.

Google seems to have been shifting a lot more than usual, lately. I'd keep an eye on it... it may just pop back up on its own.

That would be really nice - but! Just looking at the behavior, this stinks of a manual intervention - the impetus for which completely alludes me. I will be updating the blog post today and would love your comments on it -

There's a pattern in the results. For most of the keywords, we are the same amount of pages back.

For just about everything I search, my datacenter is putting REW between 51 & 55. Even the sitelinks are ranked back on page 6. ???

This is interesting, as my own site was starting to move up in the pages...now I'm practically blown off the radar...However, my hits are higher and steady. Guess they are finding me somehow...but not organic searching...

The two are not related http://www.google.ca/search?q=Paula+...ient=firefox-a your domain is coming up fine in the serps - you just need more time and link building before you start showing up for more competitive phrases/

Yes, but the irony was when I searched my key words last week (or the week before-and consistently the weeks prior) under St George Utah Real Estate I was up to page 6, then one day I moved to page 2 then...GONE...now I cant find it anywhere. Also, for other key words that were consistent...now nothing or way back. I was #1 for SunRiver Utah Real Estate for several weeks...now I'm down to page 2. I figure it will work it's self out, but I thought I was the only one...seems I'm not.
