hmmm it depends on what time frame this happened in ...How new is the site . Were any of the inbound links old??? Did you place a whole bunch of backlinks all at once . ?? There is an algorithm change where they are giving alot of credit to the google plus system and facebook likes as well. Do you have outbound links to authority sites in your niche?? It takes a lot to determine what the problem might be

could be the google dance where you rise and then plummet quickly this usually only lasts for a couple of weeks

  I agree with you on this one, it might be also the infamous Google dance which makes rankings very unsteady for a number of days.

I don't know it may possible be that some SEO services I am using from warrior Forum for link building they may submitting duplicate content when they running campaign for link building that may cause the reason sites drop in the ranking, if Google notice that links are from duplicate content they may drop site in the ranking, I don't know what other reason may be....

  That's probably the cause of your problem right there. All of the SEO services i've tried on warrior are, in my opinion, unnatural and red flag to Google.

Sounds like a possible -50 penalty. They can manually review 1 site and take down the rest on the same hosting. Or they may have picked up on unnatural backlinking. Did you build links naturally ? If it is a penalty, its usually a time penalty. Could last 3 months, 6, 9 a year or more. Do you have webmaster tools on any of the sites ?

  Very less chance of a manual review penalty but it does happen sometimes.
  
  Sites for which the ranking is dropped, Were they interlinked in any way ? Any footprints which may flag that you own these sites ? whois,backlinks pattern,footer credit goes to same link, or in any other way they were linked ?
  
  I would also investigate what was the common thing I did for all of them last time.
  
  Are you still ranking for the exact title for the page ?
  
  Thanks

The positions of my site has dropped 8 march. Prior to this: 9 queries - in the top 5, 12 - in the top 10. Now position fell to 16, 43, 46, 70, 80, 99 place. My site contains only unique content, I promoted it only white methods. In what may be the reason? Link is in the signature. Please help, I'm at a total loss

Are you sure you didn't make changes to your page? Put up a new post etc because Google cannot change your meta description. they can show content from your page but not actually change your meta description.

A lot of people have problems these days with this.. I think that if you constantly build a number of backlinks every day(for example 10 backlinks per day!) everything should be fine. So just start right away again
