Search Engines are surely the most respected free sources of traffic for any blog or website and can never be neglected when it comes to Search Engine Optimization. But it can come as a shock to know that some domains are actually banned from major search engines and do not appear for search results on keywords they write about.
There are a whole lot of reasons why your domain can be banned from appearing on search engine results on any Search Engine. One of the major reasons is doing Black Hat SEO. Trying to rank for a particular keyword by all means and gathering backlinks too quickly can cause more harm than good to your domain because you can end up having your domain name banned by major search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo.

I never knew domain could be banned. just checked and I’m great.
That’s cool to know Abraham, play safe blogging and avoid the bans.
Great! Just as if you knew what was in my mind. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I actually thought i was banned because i dropped in the rankings. I have tried my best for those people (Google). If they don’t want to send me traffic, No Problem. I’ll teach them a lesson. I don’t know how I would, but I would.
Thanks for this post Oscar.
