Website Lost Its Ranking But Is Still Indexed

Boris_yo · 11-15-2009, 05:16 PM

* My website is a couple of months old.
* It was ranked #6 before it lost its ranking.
* I didn't build backlinks at all - just bookmarked it once from beginning.
* I checked and its content hasn't been stolen and all is okay.
* The website is still indexed.

This can't be "Google Dance" since i wasn't building backlinks.
What is the problem?

(For obvious reasons i don't want to disclose website's URL)

Could be because you never built backlinks.
When it comes to Google the words "can't be" doesn't exist.
They will dance on you if you are building links or not.

Another thing is they released Caffeine on one of their data centers I hear so that may be the issue.

Either way with a few backlinks you should be able to hit #1 if you were #6 without backlinks.

I would just start slowly building a few backlinks to it... that should help its rankings.

And eventually it should pop back up even above position #6 with the added backlinks.
