Hi Pete

please have look at my web

http://www.oztshirts.com.au/

The reason that I’m getting so worries is I did something really silly. I changed the Title, Description, Keywords every second week and submitted to Google. I’ve done a lot of link exchange but I think it’s the link farm because it’s including a lot of adult, cas1n0 sites.

I think google may consider my web as a spam that why my pagerank is 0
If you have any ideal please let me know even I have to spend a bit of money.

thank you

Your site seems to have a lot of links, but low quality links. They are all from link pages with many other links. You need to try an get some better quality links from targetted on topic sites that have few outgoing links. Youneed to also get some links from authority type sites such as Yahoo Directory and Dmoz and some links from PR6 or above sites. You may consider purchasing some text link ads.

You could also still be in Sandbox. Many sites stay in Sandbox for at least 6 months.

The link far program that you use, which one is it? You need to be careful with these. If they cross link many of the same sites to each other, the network can be detected and get you penalized.

You shouldnt change things as often as two weeks.

Give it time!

Do not purchase text links these places are watched and you will eventually be penalised.

If you really have done everything then all you need to do is wait and PR will come.

PR is for link sellers etc

It would not be a bad idea to put a working link to your site if you would like people to view it for advice on ranking or links.

Also, the "general SEO" forum seems like a better place for this post as the Google forum is more for Google related topics and discussions.

I'd start from the beginning. Delete the links to the links farms from my site. You won't be penalised even though you have a lot of inbound links from link farms, the problem is if you link to them. And would start getting some links in a natural way: from relevant sites and directories.

It may take some weeks to be out of the sandbox, and the PR will be updated by the end of the year.

I think SEO Madrid has the best idea.
