I just added some backlinks today and my website has gone from page 2, to page 4 on Google. Can someone please explain to me why this has happened. Is it temporary? Comments will be greatly appreciated.

    Change in moon phase?
    Someone at Google sneezed?
    Bugs Bunny put it there?

    :p

    Seriously.. it happens. Everyday. Pages move around. A top ranking can disappear into oblivion for no reason.

    Rather than worry about it, keep building up your site and it will improve again.

    It more probably temporary and you'd probably get it back later. how soon will depend on the the Internet King --Big G. It could be a change in their algorithms... nobody knows what Big go does so don't worry too much

    just my 2 cents

        When I first started going up in the ranks I would fluctuate between 2-5 but after a while it stuck me at 2. So I would not sweat it how long has your page been on page 2 of google?

          It has been on page 2 for about 2 weeks.

    Fluctuation really occurs, that's why there's a need for the consistency of building our links. We are on the business where tough competition occurs, so build more traffic to maintain your position.
