So let's share all our best techniques for getting deindexed domains REindexed.

I've done this before. You have to drop it, change IP, lose all the content that was on it before, and re-register it under a new name, most likely a business account. This shows a change of ownership and allows it to be re-indexed with a new "life" so to speak.

[Rhetoric]

Authority Links have done it for me. LOTS of high pagerank sites generally...

My favorites are Identi.ca, and Twitter.com

[Pat Jackson]

I haven't experimented with doing so but if I was going to I think my plan of attack would be to change the WhoIs info (Maybe even just disabling privacy), replacing the content with something new and unique and building lots of links from not just high PR sites, but sites that have "trust".

Popular sites like the 2 Shane mentioned above and heaps of others like Digg, Flickr, Tumblr, Craigslist etc..

I have no idea if that would work but if I was going to try that would probably be what I'd try to begin with.

I have gotten this done. Not sure if I want to talk about how to do it as I feel it would be exploited and no longer work after publicizing it, but suffice to say if you think creatively, you can get them back very quickly. It was much less work and effort than what others described above.

Seriously..this is the only thing i can think of, a couple of mine got re-indexed unexpectedly after many months.

Submitting a reconsideration request through Webmaster tools.  Don't know if it works if you didn't already have the site in Webmaster Tools before it was de-indexed, but I know several people who got hit for issues on-site, submitted a request, figured out what was wrong, and got the domains re-indexed with full (spammy) link count and ranking back in fairly short order.

If you're already screwed, what's the harm in trying to work with Big G at that point?  It's not like they can de-index you even "worse".

Good point, I would however make sure the site looked decent before sending in a reconsideration request tho.

Would you mind pm'ing me? I recently lost a $200 per day site... promise I wont make it public

First of all you have to know why the site was deindexed by Google.  Most likely it is because of selling links, however there are other and various reasons, but the fastest way to get it indexed again by Google, is to change hosting, IP's, as if someone is buying the domain for their own purpuse, clean up the site, put high authority outbound links on it like facebook, twitter, add this button, linkedin, and have some outbound links going to high authority sites if it is a niche site, this is some of the stuff that Google is going to look, see that they site is cleane up, different content, it is servering a differenct purpose than what is was before, to let Google know that the site is for the users who visit.  Once you get to that point you can submit your "new" site, but same deindexed domain to Google for reconsideration.

You can do all of this too without changing hosting, etc, but doing that you have a better chance at getting Google to reconsider.

Also, someone mentioned that their sites where deindexed, what you did is you probably made changes so that you were following Google's guidelines, they crawled the sites and say you were following the rules, and that was it.

If you lost a money site I don't think this will work. It involves removing all content

Definitely.  One of them kept all the content the same, but changed the layout and changed the navigation a bit.  Google got back, told them of anything else they needed to fix, they did it and were back in business in less than a month.

Not bad since there is nothing to lose.  Literally.

it wasnt the content making me money, it was the backlinks have already deleted the site and parked the domain...

so no way to get this done without submitting a reconsideration request? I cant do that as the amount of backlinks I built.. well, i dont think that would reinclude the site regardless of what content i put on there...

Terry,

I would ditch the bitch.  I remember seeing a video or blog post of Matt Cutts warning people about buying domains that had been deindexed.   Face it, the domain was probably deindexed due to some kind of trust/spam/cloaking etc. issue with Google.   Cutts was warning people that once a site's trust is lost because it was spam or because it linked to known spam/malware/bad neighborhood or for some other egregious error, that site may struggle to perform well again even if it has new ownership.  He claimed that the past history of the domain sticks with the domain for a long time, even after apparent ownership transfer.  I seem to recall him even suggesting to someone that they should consider registering or looking for a different domain based on their circumstances.

So if the domain was de-indexed for spam, maybe ditch it.  If it was deindexed because of some other reason like the site being down for too long, then I suppose you could reindex it pretty dang easily with one decent link.

I searched Google for the piece, but was unable to find it.  Maybe it was buried in some other video about a different topic. Maybe it was a QNA session at some conference.

Take it for what it is worth.  I am going off memory here.  Or maybe I just dreamed it last night and think it was real.  Or maybe I was wasted and invented the story.  Or maybe I was wasted and some noob told the story and I believed him.  OR maybe too much LSD/shrooms/hash/weed in my youth?  Or...WTF?
