I just checked whether your site comes up with the API search tool and it does. In the beginning when new sites are added to the google index, they seem to rank high, then drop and then gain position again after a while. Work on your BL's.

 

I did a search using "site:www.photoblockercanada.com", it seems that your site is in google still. Maybe it will be put in sandbox, like my site

 

You are most likely sandboxed

 

Who says your site is sandboxed? Check this link Addicting gamges That doesnt mean your site is sandboxed right?

 

Google has been doing strange things. One of my pages keep going from 3-6 then for a day or so it doesn't show up at all.

 

Could it be that there are so many keywords saturating google with good content associated, that they may be rotating the free listings to benefit the searcher?

Maybe it's not all evil. Why should any free listing monopolize the top 10 rank?

It sounds like good business for both google and the searcher.

 

Same here although when i check my api tool it shows me a more consitent ranking

 

Could be yes however i think to realize something like that they will need more servers etc. It is an extra thus consume more capacitypower , costing more money etc. So i dont think they do. And on the other hand i got some other keywords that i rank first on for the last two , three months and i havnt seen any rotation in there. Unless its only for competitive keywords, but then the question would arise what is a competitive keyword? Making it even more harder.

 

All of my websites have drastically lost traffic from Google. I am suspecting it is because the pages at too many keyword phrases installed in banner and text title and alt tags. I am currently taking out most of the these tags, and re-working the actual title, description and keyword meta tags. Hopefully, this will result in a higher placement on Google.
Thank goodness Yahoo and MSN are getting more of a share of searches, as I have seen an increase in traffic there.
I should be able to see how well my reoptimizing by deoptimizing works the next time Googgle visit and indexes my site.
Here are my websites, as they are now.
