Wikipedia dissappears from topspot

    This is kind of strange. I've been competing with wikipedia and two large news sites for google's topspot for about month now. Wikipedia has always held the topspot until I checked the ranking this morning and now Wiki is just gone. The page isn't anywhere in google's listings.

    Of course I am super happy about this but where did it go? Any ideas?

    Same thing happens to my site every now and then, it will go from number 2, to nowhwere to be found, but then usually comes back. So dont get your hopes up to high, wikpedia will be back.


    What are the keywords for it?

    There are only 3 things guarenteed in this world:

    • death
    • taxes
    • wikipedia stealing your position in the serps

    Mark my words, it will be back. Enjoy the good times whilst they last. ;)

    Wiki and I are in an epic battle for first place. It's taking me months to climb up the serp ladder but i've finally reached the top. For November my site bounced back and forth between the #1 and #2 spot. For the last week I've held onto the first spot and wiki in #2. Hopefully I've defeated wiki for the #1 spot.
