I've completely rewritten the website, started a link exchange, submitted to directories and engines. It has only been one month but I haven't cracked into Google's top 60 for my keywords and I'm starting to get ranked in Yahoo. Still a little more tweeking going on.

Okay, here come the questions.

The domain name is only a few months old, should I start over with a new domain name?

Should I keep the domain name and beg Google to reconsider?

Where do I submit for Google's re-evaluation?

Thanks, Lou

Also, should I report all of the old webmaster websites for black hat techniques?
