I have an 2 years old blogspot blog with about 15 posts on it.
2 weeks ago I added more content to my blog, and I created a few more backlinks.
Nothing happened, and I decided to fetch the blog to google. After that my position start to slowly decrese in Google, and after 1 week I'm down from page 4 to page 7. Is this normal to happen?

    2 years and you have only 15 posts. Well that's odd.
    And be more specific which keyword's ranks did fell, the previous ones or the pages you newly published?

    forget about SEO until you can get your own domain name

    it makes little sense to struggle to rank a blog that you can't do anything you want and could be locked down by a third party.

    All the posts were writed 2 years ago, now I only added more text to them. The keyword was my main keyword for that website, and it had only about 2900 searches pe month.

    That doesn't tell us anything useful.

    Was it followed links from authority webpages (doubtful) or nofollow links from pages weaker than your own page/s?

        So you did absolutely nothing as far as SEO.

    That's definitely a bad sign, it means you should change something, i just don't know what until i see your blog

    2 years old blog site with only 15 content post is clearly an abandoned site. There is no doubt that you are experiencing drastically decreased in rankings and reputation in the web.

    Make regular posting on your Blogger for the main keywords and do some promotional work for Blog. Ranking will automatically start coming to its previous positions.

    Thanks for your replays, I think 15 posts are enough for a micro niche site.
    2 weeks ago I added fresh content and some new blog comments to other sites in this niche. The main keyword has only 2900 searches per month, and I think it should rank on the first page, not on the 7th page.
