My main site got hit, the pages aren't deindexed because they still appear when I search with the "site:domainname" thing. How can I check what happened if I do not have google analytics enabled there? It's a blackhat site.
 
You need to check in Google Webmaster... If your GW also not setup then you need to first setup the GW and after that you analysis your self.
 
Google analytics is the best way to solve this issue.If you have not enabled it,enable and diagnose and solve the issue.
 
Thanks, It looks like I got a Pure Spam Penaltie. I will try to fix it, have any of you guys succeded with that?
 
They will get deindexed a week later or so probably. Its how they do it lately. I had same situation with 2 sites in past 3 months
 
Do you not have webmaster tools installed? That's one of the first things you should do.

You need to disavow the spammy links first. This is why you need GWT to help you generate the report, either way use ahrefs. Once you disavow them, you need to submit your site for a manual review to lift the penalty. Could take weeks or even months depending on your situation. Sometimes you have to resubmit for several times as well.
 
Thanks to all of you. I read other threads and basically they advice to start again from 0, new domain, new everything. I have checked also another site of mine and it got hit too, from a different hosting and all.
What will I need to do to start from 0 without google knowing that I'm the same person? I mean, how do I keep it without footprints that could relate me to the penalized sites?
Thanks again for the answers.
 
Hi,

Sign in on Webmaster tool , there it shows search console simply sign in add your site and verify it.

sometimes it happens if your network changes , Did you move to new hosting?
 
Good present a problem similar to yours and my solution was to use Google analytics said that it failed and helped me to fix it.
 
why do you advice to sign in to webmaster tools and disacow OP stated it's a blackhatsite, and if anybody is stupid enough to put webmastertools and/or GA on their blackhat site they deserve to get deindexed
 
So, you know that you have a penalty. Many penalties these days are based on speculation.

Is this violations of Google's quality guidelines? If yes, you can succeed by reconsidering it.

Thanks - BB

Google Analytics is good to see the growth of the site.
But now a days, Google disappear the Page Ranks of all sites. I don't know why but i think it'll be shown after a few days, or weeks.
 
You can use Google Webmaster tool which helps to disavow your spammy links.And submit your site for review to vanish your penalty.It may takes some weeks to clear which depends on your review report.
 
you will check everything in google analytics and try to check at least one or two times per week. you can avoid this problem before you getting hit by google.
 
if you have GWT (Google Webmaster Tool) for this site ,you can get the growth of the site and also they will sent the notification if the site getting manual penalty or partial penalty.
