Explains why (and when) we see sitelinks at #60, what the penalty is likely to be resulting from, and what it may mean for the future of that site. Definitely worth keeping this information tucked away in the brain for possible future needs.

Very interesting.  I'm tempted to investigate this for a handful of clients I feel may have done some... umm... slighty shady stuff in the past.

It would be nice if the site links were always there and you could find them with a little manipulation.  That way you could easily demonstrate to a client what is happening.  But I guess Google has their reasoning for taking them away.

Could be a penalty associated with having a duplicate site . Rentalsnow.com seems to be the exact same site, just reskinned and content slightly changed.  WHOIS says its owned by same people.  Site still ranks for term "rentalsnow" while the other doesn't for "vacationrealty".

Hey i am one of the owners, we are cleaning it up as we speak and have been for about 3 weeks. I must say that it has been very hard and that this is a case where sites linking to you is the reason your receiving a penalty. Rentalsnow and is not same site as vacationrealty.com if you look at the content, meta, and number of listings. They are completely different and will always be.
