Oh man, not the news we wanted to hear....
So apparently Google has penalized our website for "unnatural link
building", to be honest I didn't even know what a "backlink" was until we
hired an outside consultant to figure out what this was all about.
Apparently Google thinks that we were creating backlinks to cheat them.
However what's come to our attention is that a scrupulous competitor has
been building backlinks to our site so that Google would penalize us. Huh
what? Ya, that's what I thought to.
Our outside consultant said that we'll need to remove our backlinks from
the past few years if we ever plan on ranking again in Google. So, here we
are trying to clean up these links that were built by some competitor.
If you can remove all the links pointed to http://zylab.com from your
website that would be amazing. You can find examples of these links on the
following pages on your website:
