    I think EMD are the least of your problems. I am not sure how you built your site, but you've block the source code showing somehow.

    Using Firebug I see you got iframes in there and some weird arrangement of code - I wonder if it's this that's confusing Google?

    If I can't even see your Description tag can they?

    Also, you say the words you are optimising for in your OP, yet your first para does not even contain any of these phrases. It says:

    "Home. The place you call your own; that unique space that defines your style. How do you feel when you walk through the doors? Is it you? Is it refreshing? Is it time to redecorate?"

    Google isn't going to read that and have a clue what your page is agbout.

    So I think it may be the structure of your site rather than an EMD issue.

    Hope this helps :-)

    Your site is not an EMD, so forget that.

    I can see there was a surge of backlinks in Dec 2012. What type of backlinking activities did you undertake?

    Possible they have harmed your rankings.

  • Sham2,


    The fact that website owners were using EMD’s was not the target of the recent update that wiped many of them off the SERP’s but rather those owners were doing a variety of other things that got them demoted and they happened to be using EMD’s as a part of their strategy. Google (or any other search engine for that matter) really doesn’t care what URL you use as long as you have quality content and you don’t appear to be deceptive in your practices.

    Many other members have pointed out factors that may be the issue for you.

    Maybe an SEO audit would help,
