I have about 7 amazon affiliate website, each site has between 10 to 30 backlinks. my question is like this: i had 3 of my sites appear on the 1st page of google and made many sales but after a month all of my sites disappear from the first page, and i dont know why. should i invest my time and build more backlinks? (the sites didnt get penalized or something) I would appreciate any help...
Usually if a site is new it will appear on the first pages on google for the first month. After that luck run out ( like a welcome to google ) you have to do the hard work to get again there.
give it a few months. My site does not have more than 10 backlinks yet it appears on the first page for a lot of things. For example search "snaps blackberry theme" - and its the first result Search "free blackberry themes download ota" and its on the first page. What's important to note here is that all the other results are websites which have been around for ages. Ive only been around since xmas! Use google Webmaster tools to see how many pages are indexed. Those are the pages that come up in search results, so make sure the tags and keywords for those pages are optimized.

backlinks off page seo is a ongoing process never stop.. I was shocked you got on the first page nice job. Must be low compet. keywords.
Definitely not sure about aditd at all Aso its not the amount of backlinks, is the quality of them backlinks. If the backlinks have high pageranks, you'll benfit. Cheers
We had success with amazon products on our site, but after the google content farm change in Feb we lost more than 50% of our traffic to these pages (as well as profits). Could this be a factor as well?
If your site suddenly disappear from the first page, you may have fallen victim to the Panda update. Lots of people had their sites taken off the front page including myself. My advice is to keep building links and good content.
I heard panda update is small ongoing changes. I saw some of my sites drop of first page too. But some of them bounced back to their old sites. So im not sure if it was specifically panda. I do know that once your off the first page your traffic just DROPS so much. I was suprised how dead my site got once it was of the first page. Unbelievable how much we do really on google to keep us fed. kinda scary! As for backlinks, what have you considered?
Simply keep building links and it ought to show up very soon. The initial phase will be high, then it may bounce down to an extent and then it will bounce up again and settle. The whold process will take a few days to a few months, depending upon the competition levels in your niche.
