My website has always ranked very high on all the search engines. Starting with the last week of November, I noticed I was dropped from Alta Vista, Hot Bot and MSN. I haven't a clue as to what I've done wrong. I've used Inktomi's direct submit for many years. When I use Pure Search my website does come up. Has this happened to anyone else? Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Has your Inktomi been paid for the next 12 months? - that could explain the loss from these sites (except altavista).
If it has been paid --> complain.

Any suggestions on how to optimise for their algorithm?

Sorry, Inktomi is something I know very little about - maybe someone else can answer that.

On a commercial site, I get consistantly spidered by Inktomi (Slurp). Never have paid a dime. Listed quite high on targeted keyword phrases on MSN & others. Have no clue why, but who cares?

Search on any search engine for white 3300 embroidery machine.

Thanks
