One of my newer site projects took a complete dump yesterday but just started coming back a few hours ago.
A few months back for shits and giggles I did try a fiverr.com blog comment spam package. I was curious if it would kill the site, improve it or do nothing. I was totally prepared for it to kill the site.
My guess is that the web spam did hurt my site but google probably did some sort of revert back while they tweak things a bit more before re-apply the rules.
So if google does keep things as is it means that for $5 you can kill any competitors site.
