Thanks for responses. I certainly appreciate that my site (in its present form) is not worthy of being indexed, I just found it interesting that instead of dropping rank it seems to have removed it for keywords that worked just a few weeks ago, even though it is clearly present in index if you search for domain name.

My view is that using "click-out" scripts is a perfectly legitimate technique. Google certainly uses it itself, but then again it know that it is a trusted source, my guess would be that they might have a number of extra diligence that can be triggered by certainly factors, perhaps usage of some keywords. Perhaps that this topic is best to be left for SEO threads.

I hope my post was not misunderstood as any attempt to blame anything on anyone - merely an observation of black-box like activity by all-mighty Google.

thanks

alex

            Ashley you're spot on. In my former life I dealt extensively with email marketing (for artists/records), and it worked great, especially with click-thru to decent content offerings ...

            Agree about email being too cheap, hence spam. Interestingly both Yahoo and Microsoft are looking at email stamps as a way of reducing spam, see NYT article below. I think charg ...
