Default Is This Normal to Happen?

Hello Fellow warriors, so for a couple days now my site was on page 1 (2nd to last). I felt so happy because that was a major accomplishment. And I was just getting more excited to keep going up. Anyways - last night, I was still on page 1, but this morning I'm now on page 2, and 5 ranks down.

Sadly enough, that got me really bummed and a huge lost of confidence. I feel as the momentum just shifted, and now I'm in panic mode.

Is this normal? Does the Google dance still occur even on page 1? Or did I pick the wrong keywords? How do I get back up on this? Do I double the effort on my backlinks or that doesn't matter?

Thanks guys.

The site is about...2 months old. I should have purchased an old URL for more authority huh?

For sure. Thanks a lot. So speeding up the process won't help at all.

This happened to a page of my site as well and it's also pretty new. So I guess that just means it is normal.

Sounds like the typical Google Dance to me.

Just concentrate on content / link building and promotion. Don't forget the social aspect of your site either.

YOu should see things stabalize shortly.

one of my new sites dropped from number one to number 3 this morning as well

I've just added another post of 500 word content, hopefully it'll pick back up

Wait and see the traffic coming to it for the next 2-3 weeks, check the trends and also build links to your site from high authority sites having high PR. This will really help and
boost your new site.

This looks normal to me...what i suggest is that build more links to it slowly since you are not far from Page 1...do not blast 1000 backlinks straightaway as it might back fire you...
