My webpage was ranking #3 for a great keyword, so i changed the onpage content to be more optimized for that keyword. As soon as the google spiders came back to my page It has dropped out of sight ! (And costing me a lot of dang money might I add )

my question is this, Has this happened to you and how long does it usually take to get your page back to where it was originally?

Thanks,
Matrix

    Same thing happened to me. I was on page 1 for two different competitive keywords and dropped down to where I can't even find my site anymore.

    It's been about ten days now and it still hasn't bounced back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      did you change anything on the page? I know sometimes ill be really high for a keyword when the page first gets indexed but will drop off immediately afterward

        No I didn't change anything on the page. The site has been slowly moving up in the rankings for about eight weeks now. It started off back at pages like 7 and 9 and has been bouncing around and moving up until I finally broke the first page but then just dropped extremely low.

        It usually drops lower than normal before it bounces up higher than it was but right now it's extremely low, lower than it's ever been.

        I can find it if I put one of my keywords in quotes and it's still bouncing around in the serps day after day but in an extremely low position.

        I'm guessing (hoping) it will bounce back sometime... the question is when.
