    Hello,
    my website was ranking on top 10 position on some keywords at google till yesterday. All of a sudden it drops out at all keywords and i can found them on top 300-500 position.
    can anyone tell me the reason of this suddenly dropping.

    did you change something on your site like title?
    or probably because your competitor have massively added some backlinks :D

    your website is in the google sandbox.

    it will take 2-3 months. You will get your ranking very soon.

    getting high serps is way easier then maintain your positions ... if you get on top it never means you should stop doing seo . keep on doing seo and keep getting quality backlinks

    I would put it down to two things:

    You've lost your backlinks somehow
    Or
    you've had the title tags for your website changed.

    Over then that I see no reason why a site would fall so greatly

    I see that question very frequently and usually the site comes back in search results within one week. Sometimes it might be a real penalty (did you link to a spammy site?).

    Try site:yourdomain.com and see if your homepage shows up.

    Google changes its algorithms constantly, so who knows? As other users said, probably it's because your competitors got more backlinks...

    I feel some Google update since last few month and also seen large variation in the rankings. So i think you also facing the same problem, just remove the spam and keep continue the good work then your site will back in shape in rankings surely.

    You can't tell after one day if you are sandboxed. It can be anything just be patient you should be worried if your are still ranking bad after a week or so.

    If that was all it took, I would invest the money into some link building software and dominate all my keywords.

    Thanks for all
    i think if any site gone to google sandbox, it does not appear at any position in google SERP.
    but my website appears on 300+ positions at many keywords

    Such things are happen on many site since last few month, so just have a patience but it is not sure hgwy much time it will take to show your rankings back.
