Hello

I became determined to promote one pf my pages.

I wrestled with article submitters, but out of date directory files made them useless without a lot of tweaking.

So I spent a leisurely day submitting my article to 50 directories, so far so good.

The page I was trying to promote was at the top of the second page of Google.

After finishing my article submissions, I had a look, and Google had shunted my page down to the bottom of page 3.

By coincidence one of the articles I had submitted was at the top of page 2, where my other page had been.

Should I be worried about this sudden drop in page rank?

Thank you.

Richard
