If you have a site that’s penalized by Google (like this one — only the home page has PageRank) then you need to do your best to recover from that penalty. The most comprehensive advice on what to do is found on Google Penalty Advice for Webmasters. Someone’s story about how they reversed a penalty is also useful reading.
Note that penalties are easier to obtain when you have a “dofollow” blog — that’s one of the disadvantages.
I’ll document my journey here as well…
Thanks for the mention, Eric, and good luck reversing your own penalty.
