I’ve been away for a while, and it’s time to get back on track. Lately, about 9 months ago, one blog of mine got Pagerank penalized due link selling activity. Yes, indeed I am using it for TextLinkAds, Backlinks, and LinkAdage, but that is the story 9 months ago. My blog’s Pagerank dropped to PR0 and keep maintaining to this level until the day I requested for Google consideration.
How to recover Google Pagerank penalized site?
When the blog got penalized, I was totally feeling down to monetize the blog since all efforts done are not worthless. In short, zero profit obtained from this blog. Since then, I stopped my link sales activity to whole blog and started to focused more to Google Adsense. The journey went smooth, even with PR0, but I still managed to get $5.00 and above daily, only with this blog. Everything went smooth until today, but seems that I felt something is missing with the blog ; Pagerank.
Google Webmaster Tools
I can say that Google is the monster of the whole internet. Since that I am no more violate Google TOS, a feeling of confident appear to request a site consideration from Google. I tried. Google Webmaster allows us to manage and optimize our sites in contact with the Google company. So, I login to my Google Webmaster account and get my site verified.
Google Webmaster Control Panel
As you can see, there is a function of Site Reconsideration by Google. This is exactly the only way to contact Google and request for reconsideration of your site if the site seems to violate Google term of services. I did this to one of my verified blog with Google Webmaster and wait to if see request worked.
Update : A week later
About a week later I received a message from Google inside the Google Webmaster control panel saying that the website reconsideration has been processed. Seems that the process went exactly well as planned.

This does not the end for me. I’ve check for the Google Pagerank for my blog and what a wonderful day, finally, I got back pagerank for the blog, PR2. If you followed my blogging activity, then you will probably know which blog of mine was the one requested for reconsideration. Well, this seems fair for me, follow Google rule, get back Google Pagerank. Until then.

It is still 0 dude.
i didn’t request reconsideration for this blog. it’s for my other blog. this blog may need few months for reconsideration since it is still full of ads and paid links.
Check for my blog (hanep.org) pagerank after 5 days of site reconsideration request : Back to PR3.
Did you removed the link ads/blog post?
hoho. Back to PR3? I guess that was great.
