		<description>Is there a thing as a &#039;google images search&#039; penalty?
Suddenly i lost all traffic from there, have looked in webmaster tools and seems my robots.txt got corrupted when switching webhost. Hope things get back to normal soon.</description>

		<description>Wasn&#039;t there a minus 30 one a while back if your site had been targetted by those trawler sites?

I&#039;d expect google to throw up interesting changes to results from time to time as they are constantly tweaking.</description>

		<description>Hi Patrick:

Love your new tools with the sitemap.xml / yahoo api hybrid by the way.

In my summation, the -6 is a link building penalty as result of a more scrutinous Google bot cracking down on excessive anchor text similarities. 

As most of the data centers attempt to discern the actual position, sometimes you have to use an allinanchor: search from another country to see, if it&#039;s a local (US or UK) penalty or hits all of the global positions for the company. 

I have seen this yo-yo affect occur for a few weeks and then the normal position return, so they really should hold out and give it a chance to remedy itself.</description>
