        Debbie,

        there is no clear explanation due to the dropping of rankings based on your question. Is all you do build articles on your own site with links to different pages or do you optimize pages according to the predetermined method and build links to the article and page on different hight authority communities (like moz?) and social media? Do you share content with different website? Did you over-optimize the pages? Did you receive links from "suspicious" websites or perhaps did you buy some links to the article?

        There can be a ton of reasons for the droppings of your rankings. Can you provide us with an example page of your website? For instance the domainname and a recent article you wrote so we can take a look at that?

        Regards

        Jarno

          Hi Jarno,

          Thanks for your response. I build links through article on my own personal blog and I also build links through another website through free article submission.I make one article a day, with the keywords that are repeated about two-three times per article. So far I have not received any warning from Google.

          I am not sharing content on a different site and feel that I am not over optimizing as the article is only written once a day. Unfortunately since this is a work I am doing for a client I cannot share much information. Would it be possible for you to show me, what I can look for from the domain name and recent articles I write?

          I really appreciate you helping out. ThanksRegards,

          Debbie

          • Does anyone know why some keyword rankings go from nowhere in the top 50 to ranking 1st to then nowhere in the top 50 in the space of 3 weeks?

          • Why are the rankings of my keywords different to rankings from other programmes such as 'Access my Lan' and 'Firefly'? Does SEOMoz count 'Google Places and Maps' in their rank count? Im thinking this could explain the difference
