      Hello All,

      My question is, why did my site rankings go up all of a sudden as soon as I published an article in my blog and it gets indexed (almost immidiately)

      The rankings increase are the following

      Keyword 1: from Top 5 to Top 1

      Keyword 2: from Top 4 to Top 2

      Keyword 3: from Top 16 to Top 3

      Keyword 4: from no where to Page 2 (big time keyword)

      Any ideas or experience on this?

      When it first happened early this week(i published a new article), my site rankings dropped back after a couple of days. I did the same pattern by pubishing a new article and it went back up again. No personalized result here btw.

      Thank you

        Maybe it depends on the authority of blog/website you are adding your content on!

          Louie, are you sure you are not seeing personalized search results ?

          I would suggest using Incognito/Private browsing and/or clear your cookies. Also use the Search Tools option at Google.com and change your zip code to a random city and then recheck your rankings.

          If you are still on top of the SERPS, good. Congratulations. Google usually likes fresh content and sometimes it can have effects like these. Content is King = Almost all the time 🙂

            We have a blog on our main Website. Every time we publish a blog article, a very similar scenario plays itself out. Out CEO's conclusion? "Google Love's Blogs!" So we are trying to blog about every new product etc.

            You are right too, in a week or so, our rankings drop back down after the post has been out for a week or so.

            Lesson" Write a blog post about every single one of your products every single week!

            Right. Not realistic.

            I don't really know how to ring this bell. Maybe that's Google's reason for valuing posts like these so highly...because really, no one's going to publish a new blog post every week about every single one of their products.

            Or are they????

              Thanks Dana, glad I am not alone on this. It's a really bizzare situation. Does your blog have a lot of posts? 50 or more in total? Are your blog topics relevant to the keywords that are increasing in rankings?

              Thanks

              Louie
