Hello, warriors, how are you?

I made a new site about 1 month ago and it was positioning very fast on Google. He came to stay on 1 page for several keywords, but as of July 26 he began to fall into the searches and currently finds himself in this position. "How to show the image".



I checked the webmaster tools and found no penalty notification and so I do not know exactly what happened. What do you think can make a website fall so many positions? If you believe that my site has been punished by Google, what would be this punishment and how to recover it?

    New sites often rank fast and then falls. It happens because google takes some time to categorize you site's merit. Just keep up the content flow and build quality links it will come back eventually.

      I was thinking that maybe the site has been punished by Google for using many Adsense ads. But if this were to remove the ads the site would return correct?

        Adsense Ads doesn't effect any SERP's. Although I do not prefer more than 3 ads in one page.

          WRONG. Too many ads above the fold will definitely harm your rankings. So will a page that is clearly built for the sole purpose of displaying ads that provides little to no real, unique value.

    It's funny you mention this because I have had this happening to me quite frequently for the last 6 months or so.

    My blog is almost 10 years old, so it has pretty decent domain authority.

    But for whatever reason, the last few articles that I've written that I really wanted to rank for, usually show up within the hour on page 1 or 2. Then they disappear for about a week or two.

    Then they come back and they're usually higher than they were when they disappeared.

    I don't get it.

    I THINK,Any page one positions you had are slipping back to page two or three without any action on your part. PageRank for your site has inexplicably dropped from a ..

    Make sure you are following the algorithms properly. When you start optimizing the sites again check your contents are unqiu, page URLs are well set and keywords are well placed and optimized. You may watch videos and tutorials of Brian Dean who is world famous for SEO.

    Although search results move around a little, a huge drop like that is one of three things:

    1) You were signed into a Google account when you were seeing the great results and weren't when you saw the bad results.

    2) Algorithmic penalties do not show up in Search Console. Google updates their algorithm hundreds of times per year and spammy backlinks that used to help your site rank may no longer work. Use the Panguin tool to see if a known algorithm change occurred at approximately the same time your rankings plunged. This tool does not take into account the minor, unnamed algorithm changes, however.

    3) User interactions with the site were very poor compared to the other sites competing for the phrase(s) you were ranking for. (I doubt this would cause the drop you suggested that quickly, however).

    You need to type your domain name in Google to check either its penalized or not.

    Your site is only 1 month. Even if you have very low competition long tail keywords, it will be very hard to rank high.

    I faced the same similar situation when my site was new. You'll need to gain more site trust from Google for your page to climb up.

    Sometimes, a fast ranking page will be totally removed from the search results when your site is new. It's "Google Sandbox" according to some experts.

    If it's a manual penalty, you'll get the message in your Webmaster Tool Manual Spam section. Else, just keep writing and publishing awesome content and your page will rank as time passes.

    i agree with expmrb . Google is about connecting businesses to people and it allows you rank better on search engine. Google needs time to test your site. if you use spam strategies then you get punished by google
