   Hi everyone,

   I'm really at my wits end here...

   You see, after posting only ONE comment (I do not engage in spamming) on this site:

   site url

   ...I've been getting a TON of backlinks from this website, within a matter of days. I posted the comment with the hope of obtaining just one backlink, but now I'm being constantly bombarded with backlinks from this particular site.

   As a result, the search engine ranking for MY site has plummeted to 180! (It placed at 90 when it was first indexed).

   A few days ago, I contacted the owner of the above-mentioned site and had my comment removed from the page...

   ...however my website continues to get backlinks.

   What could be the cause for this sudden explosion of links? I only launched my site around a couple weeks ago, and already it's gotten over 300 backlinks, mainly from the source I mentioned in the first paragraph.

   Pls. click on the link below, you'll see what I mean:

   link

   Is this due to a problem with my theme? Perhaps it's got something to do with one of my plugins? Or do you think the problem is with the site I mentioned earlier?

   If anybody out there has a solution, please let me know. I really don't want Google penalizing my site any further!

   Thanks a LOT,

   Regards

   Slade
