    I think most search engines reserve the right to add or remove sites at their discretion. My guess would be to resubmit it to them.

    Google works differently than other search engines. Read more about it here: <a href="http://www.google.com/about.html" target="_blank">http://www.google.com/about.html</a>

    Get lots of people to link to your page from theirs. It will increase your chances of being "found" by the Googlebot.

    Also keep in mind that it may take 6-8 weeks for your site to show up again.

    I would just copy the META info of the sites getting first and second and add it to what you have. I also agree with MacGyver, worked for me.
