Help needed

Hi,

Google considers my s t u r d y b r a k e s ( ) c o m site as violating their quality guidelines, ie. considers it a spammy site

I've read their policies on the subject and I've tried to figure out why said site is no good, but I can't.

Is it the one article that I have borrowed form e-zines? This article is totally related to the content of the site and I'd certainly not consider it as spammy

I'd really appreciate any help on this

I'm saying this because -g- sent me a mail in which they said that said site contains spammy content and thus they de-indexed it from the engine

So did they tell U specifically what the spam was?

nope, if they have done that I wouldn't be that lost

all they said was to check their page with their policies... I've read that multiple times and I still can't figure out what is wrong with my mini-site.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do that , but here is the mail I've received:

@Hypersot You have a lot of duplicate or copied content.

You need to create longer more original content and you need to balance out the number of affiliate links you have on each page.

Thanks, now we're getting somewhere

the duplicate content comes from just 1 article that I have on the frontpage (from ezinearticles)

as for balancing the affiliate links.... is there a ratio that I should follow?

since this is a part of my first affiliate mini-sites, I tried to make it look like an actual online shop. I'd appreciate any guidance on this.

I also have the following sites that haven't been de-indexed (yet):
u s b 3 ( ) n e t and b e e t h o v e n ( ) m o b i
...any comments will be greatly appreciated so I can avoid the same mistakes as with s t u r d y b r a k e s
