Google Penalty for loads of big sites

[CJ]

wow got that for the sites i use as link farm
So does this happen from time to time or just happened for the first time ? Coz It never happened b4 with me.

So is it end of DDL sites or we can go on with it by removing recent search results from the sites?

@Happy, what do you mean about that penalty? If you want to know whether your site indexed by google or not is to search it by using "site:yoursite.com" keyword, not just "yoursite"

How a Googler would do a site:yoursite.com search if they haven't found yoursite.com ?

Well think about it, if your DDL is new, recent search pages (with right keywords and description) can bring you most of trafic.

So no recent searches = less traffic.

musicoogle.com is also using this trick and their rank is 20k but it is not yet banned. Why?

Yes it is and it's traffic has plumeted. Check it's alexa or search google for it and you'll clearly see it's penalized. http://www.google.com/search?q=musicoogle
