Question by Judy L: About a year ago my #1 real estate site disappeared from Yahoo results after I changed my links page. Why?
I was #1 in natural results for my market and for my keywords, Fayetteville Arkansas Real Estate for about 3 years. In April of last year I “streamlined” my links page and removed a lot of the extraneous copy. Now it’s just keywords for the other real estate sites to whom I have links, for example “Orlando Real Estate” or “Miami Real Estate”. It’s easier for site visitors to use, but my site totally disappeared from Yahoo. I have a lot of good content and the site is “somewhat” optimized. Does anyone have an idea of why? I’m still #1 in Google and about #3 in MSN. The website is http://www.JudyLuna.com . If anyone can figure out why I am being penalized, I would really like to know so I can correct it. I am a real estate agent first, but I manage my own site.

well did you use a keyword generator and put the code into the html of your site? maybe that might be it. just putting the keywords in the keyword section on your site’s account page may not be enough.
