Have I been Google slapped?

    Hi guys, I just wondered if I have been punished by Google?

    I recently wrote my first HubPage on a keyword targetted topic that I find of great interest. I did both because I really wanted to make the page and to find out how to create good HubPages.

    I made 2 initial links to my page and as soon as Google picked it up after a week and a half or so I was on the front page for my search term, in fact I was 8th result!

    Then about a week or two later, after no movement or other promotion I decided to try and get it a bit higher. I submitted the URL to www.submitexpress.com and also pinged the page on www.pingler.com and www.pingoat.com. Then I also submitted it to about 12-15 Social bookmarking sites using www.onlywire.com.

    A day and a half later I was on page 14 of Google! I dropped further down to page 23 over the next few days but now I am up to page 2 and with an EZA article pending review I should be back on the first page soon.

    What exactly did I do? I know I did something wrong, but what was it? Can somebody help so I don't make the same mistake!?

    What keywords and/or keyword phrases are you trying to target?

    How many websites have you posted back links to you website on?

    Are you currently receiving any organic traffic to you website? (if so, please offer details)

    I will do my best to get you on the "right track," but I would like to get more information in regards to the questions that I posted above.
