Hey guys, I had a website PR 4, it ranked 8-9 high competitive keyword 3 weeks ago. I thought it disappeared because of Google danced, however, it haven't came back yet. How can I do to get it back?? My traffic drop 50%
Maybe you'd wait more time, it still can be simply the Google dance. But maybe you did something wrong and was penalized for something, huh?
Increase quality back links to your website. create squidoo lense, google knol etc. for your services with back links to your website.
There are two when the keywords are drop down 1. Google Dancing 2. Done something wrong Sometime is happen when google dancing or you may have done some wrong for your site. I would suggest you that always do the quality work for your site.
How old is your website? Count from the first date published only and not the day you registered. This kind of behavior does always happen to website which is new, aka. "Sandbox". Even I cannot confirm if sandbox does exist or not but the one thing I can assure you is your ranking can be brought back if you have patient enough. Do not panic about the ranking fluctuated and keep working as you were. Link building in steady pace is an important role in this case. Most peoples would throw a ton of links when this happen to them which only lead to a worse situation instead of helping them.
3 year old website It still ranks with other keyword so I think my site is not sandboxed. I did many things thus I couldn't know what affected to my site. Do you think poker logo on arcade website is the reason??
When was your website cached last by Google? You have got to work much on Social Networking and build links that give you more value.
Dude, same thing happened to one of my website. It was ranking very well until November 1st week. My home page rankings were dropped suddenly and my website has moved from top 3 to 17 position and few keywords have jumped from 6 to 30th position. This is affected only to home page. All remaining pages are doing very well in SERPs. There is no change in traffic from inner pages. Only my home page got affected. Would anyone please let me know is this Google penalty? Well, after seeing this graph (http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-to-h...-and-an-example-from-the-field-of-real-estate) i don't think that my website got penalty from Google. Why bcoz, all my inner pages are ranking very well in Google.
Drop in keyword ranks happens and a drop in backlinks power can cause a page's ranking to fall for some searches but not for others. There can be only two reason as far as my experiences: 1) The pages you had ranked for your keywords should have loss the keyword based anchor text credits.(that helps them keep up there) 2) Simply, the keywords should be more competitive than the keywords you are presently ranking for. The drop was not to his site but to some of his search terms. You need to completely read and understand before posting your suggestion. Hope you will not repeat lame replies before! Though your suggestion relates to certain point we cannot expect if he had done something wrong as you replied here. Just to add: Wrong things and its effects are only subject to on-page. I wouldn't have take time to quote for your reply if you wouldn't have talk something about Squidoo, Google etc...Ok, my straight question to you: Can you give me Squidoo,Google knol results to any of yours/others business terms in search engines as to why you recommend them here? Did you know that Google Dance is really a technical behavior by Google? Or have you ever heard Google or people from Google have spoken on this? I am sure you wouldn't have ever. However FYI: the term is derived by Internet Experts to give certain name to results fluctuations in Google. Also those results fluctuates(or Google Dance) for a 3 to 5 day period only. Here the person has the problem since last 3 weeks. Definitely there are few good points here. But the age of domain or as you say its publishing date and sandbox stuff doesn't have the relation to keyword ranks drop to the latest technology. Sandbox, Google dance, Website's age were effective 5years ago! Definitely your site is not. You should refer to my earlier reply I have written for you Did you place 'Poker Logo' of your website as backlink from an arcade games site? Then, Definitely Not. If you place other web links on your site, you should check if they are free from spam or badneighborhoods as that can affect your site adversely! No problem dude. Google Dancing is nothing but fluctuation is Google's search results for a period of 3-5 days or to a maximum period of 1 week. ROFL! Hello Friend, You really made me laugh continuously! Please check out my earlier replies... Great catch! But it is just your play Dude, they are not allowed on Adsense Only.
In a way or another, the best thing you can do is to make your site indexed more often by getting strong backlinks from well-indexed sites.
check your backlinks may be you are getting link from site which contains adult ,Viagra links , if your indexed pages getting down that means you have penalty
Whilst I am not stating that your site has been penalized by Google, causing the drop in ranking and organic traffic, it still remains a possibility. Unfortunately search engines do not disclose any information about penalties and currently offer no means to confirm whether a penalty is in place - leaving you guessing and interpreting very precious few facts. We are campaigning to abolish secret search penalties. Let's get search engines to confirm whether a penalty is in place. Find out more on our website - thanks. Marc
Google is "looking" strange sometime... can be a lot of reasons ! This problem i encountered too with my website ! From position 7-9 suddenly jumped to 50. And this effect took 2-3 weeks !
i have the same problem too but mine is showing in Google places. SERP 1st page is showing only 4 websites and they are lying below google places with 6 websites. One of the 6 sites is mine
