I have problems about my website...

I have apartment that I rent and I made website for it. Website is about 3 years old .

I did SEO (beginers level).

My website was ranked great on google for my keywords until last month...

When i put keywords on google i can't find my website in first 200 results.Before that my website was on first 15 results.

But one thing is strange for me.When I put keywords in google i can't find my home page . It just give me other pages from my website that never ranked before,but not homepage....

All pages are indexed in google,I checked it...

I don't know why that happened . My hosting provider and my website was hacked , but I fixed that for 3 days.Did it take influence for ranking ?

If someone know what this is about,please help

Thanks in advance

If it was crawled during the time it was "hacked" especially if it took three days to rectify, then it will take some time to settle down again.


And to search engines ALL URLs are a "home page". There is only you that thinks your root URL is the one that should appear for EVERY search engine user query. Search engines will show the most relevant document URL for the search phrase, whether it is your "home page" or not.

You may still be hacked. Or you may have been hit by a recent google update. Read the latest SEO articles posted at the top of the forums for more info.

Have you logged into your Google Webmaster Tools dashboard and see if you have any new alerts?

Everything is OK in google webmaster tools . I read google updates , maybe my website is penalized - keywords . I have keywords in title and description but don't have keywords in text of home page . I think that's it .

Because my hope page is description of town , i can't insert keywords in text .
Is Ok if I put keywords list on home page like :

Keywords :
xxxxx
xxxxx
xxxxx

Is this braking any rule ?

Thank you all

There is no rule. But it would sure look dumb to do so.
