Over the past week or so, my ranking has been steadily falling, today being the most substantial of the lot. Nothing has changed on the site itself, it's really bizarre. Even the name of the company, which was originally ranked #13 (go figure) has dropped 97 spots over the past 2 weeks!! It's gotten REALLY ugly, but I have no idea what's caused the sudden change with G - I continue to rank great with Y and MSN.. Any thoughts?
A couple of my phrases went south. UNless they stay that way for a few weeks forget about it. Google is dropping and re-instating massive directories at the moment, this is going to affect the value of backlinks massively. This sort of thing happens all the time, i really wouldn't worry about it. It is for this reason that you have to target as many keywords and phrases as possible. because that way when there is a slight algo change, some go up, some go down, traffic stays the same.
