Hi Rachel,

Thanks for your quick reply!

Seems like it’s still not displaying properly, even when I empty the cache ??

Thanks for your response. It seems like the problem happens at different times, depending on the browser. I haven’t seen it in Firefox, but I do see it in Safari, IE, and Chrome.

I just saw it a few hours ago, but now it disappeared again, without me changing anything.

Any ideas on what’s happening?

Thanks,
Raza

Hey Investor,

I was able to stop the random publishing of posts, luckily. I don’t remember what settings I chose but I think I did select “Save popular search terms as post tags”

I will be patient with it. The weird thing is that I re-submitted an XML sitemap, deleted the plugin, and deindexed the tag pages, but can’t figure out why the site’s rankings are still down.

Did your site recover from the ranking drop?

Thanks again for your reply.

My site has been affected by this really badly by this plugin.

My site started to rank pretty well after I started submitting to a blog network like you recommend. I heard about a plugin called Search Terms Tagging 2 and installed it. I installed that plugin exactly 2 weeks ago and it’s caused me nothing but problems. First it started randomly publishing older posts (I thought my site was hacked), then my keywords tanked. It’s been 2 weeks and I’ve updated my robots.txt file to de-index those pages and deleted the plugin. Despite this, no return in rankings yet. According to the email from the guy who recommended it to me, the same thing happened to him and his site did come back after a week or so. No such luck for me…

Has anyone else’s site come back up in the SERP’s after getting penalized?

Thanks,
Raza
