    So i had this one site making quite a good $ for me ( like 2.5weeks old) all traffic came from one term and it was ranked number 6 ( It was super-low-competititve-keyword) .

    Today I check why there are no traffic coming.. and what I see my site now is in 170th place!!! From 6th to 170 when it had like only 80results with allintitle for that keyword and I have keywordphrase.com domain for it.


    Anyone can tell me what is this - Does that means I'm sandboxed or what? Or sandboxed was that also your site gets deindexed?

    Anyone have had something like this as well? Any solution for this or maybe thats that new cafeine effect?

    Thanks to anyone who can help me with this :(

    Well i think your site has low backlinks, so it is shifted back.

    Definitely wouldn't happen on accident, you should check over some of Google's SEO tips to see if you have broken anything

    Quite normal. New sites often makes top SERPs and then falls back. Its a way to give new sites a chance and to make the SERPs look fresh.

    Bingo. New sites boost then drop. You are dropped and are now going to have to earn that place like everyone else!:(

    Not if the keyword is indeed very-low-competitive. Something else happened, but there are virtually no information to help you.

    Any number of things could have happened. But without knowing specifics and the URL, all we can do is play a guessing game that becomes boring after about 30 seconds.

    I'll have to agree with this being normal. Sounds like the old Google Sandbox trick. Check out the Google Sandbox thread here in DP.

    I wouldn't worry too much about it if it is not every competative because you will be back up soon if you continue to add new content and continue to build backlinks. New sites shouldn't expect to rank very very high even if it is a low competition keyword

    2.5 weeks? My guess is you're sandboxed right now. No biggie. You should get back in the 30s' IMO...
