Have you noticed that Google...

Maybe I am wrong but I have noticed the following:

For a new site: When Google is "considering" ranking one of your pages for a keyword high on the #1 SERP (i.e. Top 5), it artificially keeps that page at position #11 (first position on SERP #2 on Google) for about a couple of weeks.

Then it suddenly slaps that page somewhere high on the #1 SERP, in the Top 5 results.

This happened to me the first time I ranked a page on #1 SERP on Google.

Now, I am going through the same thing with another page that I believe will soon hit #1 SERP on Google.
It's been staying at #11 for quite some time and I consider this a sign that it will soon be Top 5.

This whole deal is just an observation of mine. I could be wrong, of course.
Many people say that it is possible to rank on #1 SERP right away, without any trial period.

I think Google ranks pages on a Per-10-Results basis.

PS:
I am doing rankings checks from different computers, using different IPs and completely logged out of any Google accounts that I have.

Yeah this has happened for one of my pages as well. It used to be ranked very high and got tons of traffic. Now it got put at #11 for the past week or so. I've been building backlinks to the page but we'll see where it ends up. I'm sure it will be back up top again.

Yeah, I think you might be right. A fair amount of micro niches of mine experience something similar to this.
