    It's salsa dancing holy moley.

    I ranked #6 for a keyword for the longest time then I fell to the 2nd page, and everyone on the first page has never been there before, they were like on page 3. And for another keyword I was on page 1 at the bottom now i'm at the bottom of page 2. And everyone who was on page 1 with me is no longer on page 1. LOL, this is crazy!

    EDIT: This is so depressing how google can play with us like this. 90% of my traffic comes from Google. :(

    Give it a couple of days, it will probably bounce back.

    I was ranking top of second page up until last week, then disappeared completely. This morning I'm middle of the first page.

    Its feast or famine with Google. Give it a couple of weeks before going into panic mode.

    Getting to page 2 is nothing compared to my problem (drop from page 1 to page 14) :(

    It's already 10 days like that here!
