One of the big resaons we created this Truepot.com blog was because Google delisted the domain about 4 years ago. At the time this was entirely our fault.

We’d built a few thousand doorway pages using a pretty crude program (with great success though) and, despite removing them, completing reindex requests etc it’s been a real ordeal getting Google to snifff around the new site again. It’ll take a bit more time to actually get ranked and I’m sure we’ll wait another year for PageRank but it’s a good start.

For anybody else who find their site delisted here’s what we did.

1. Remove all offending pages
2. Modify robots.txt to teach google that those removed pages are definitely not online
3. Request re-inclusion via Googles Webmaster Tools
4. Add a blog and pump in new content to it
5. Submit the blog posts to social bookmarking sites to force Google to pay attention to you
