    Johnek123, there may lots of reasons for this - unless you specify exactly what you have been doing lately with regard to that keyword, nobody will give you a reasobale answer.

    did you change your content tremendously? this may cause your ranking disappear.

    First, I'd look and see if someone duplicated your content.

    Just ride it out. Do not make any drastic changes to your website at this point in time. Google is just doing a dance :).

    give it a few weeks, and you'll be back up.
    Probably you made a change and G need to re-rank you

    What has changed between when it was good and when it dropped? This will help us to help you diagnose the problem.

    This recently happened to one of my sites. Building too many inbound links far too quickly for a specific keyword will drop your site in the serps for that keyword. That's been my experience anyway.

    Freeflyer, I would agree... Bad serps go to the loser.

    That said, here's a quote:

    ----
    Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth... Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr
    ----

    Freeflyer, if it's impossible for someone to rob your content and
    take your traffic, then we can eliminate this possibility.

    Johnek123, are you still here? Would like to know
    if you eliminated the impossible.

    If smoeone steels your content AFTER your pages have already been indexed, their pages will not affect your placings in any way whatsever... unless the distribution of your content throughout their page is of sufficiently low enough percentage to present their page as a unique one.

    But, a site who blatantly copies your copy, and puts it on a page of their own with only templating differences, wont harm you at all.

    you mean the post on WMW? yes, that concurs with what i'm saying :)
    stands to reason to me that the date issue is nonsensical.. otherwise those who scraped content (or the original copy owner) all go around changing one letter in our docs in order to get a recent publish date and above the duplicate content issue. The google index would be a farce.

    Did you got strong backlinks the last weeks ? Evertime I get strong backlinks my main keyword goes to the page 5-6 and one week later it's mostly in better position than before.
