Hi Guys,

I originally posted this in another forum and i would like to ask the wonderful people of the WF for more information, i hope that you can help me with the problem and how to get back my rankings. :C

I started an MNS blog last Nov. 2011, with a 20+searches a day keyword with 20,000 "competing pages". until Jan. 2012, i havent touched it much aside from two articles (which i think are SEO optimized enough) and some on-page optimization, because i would like to "ferment" the site for a little before employing very active off page seo / link building (being a newbie, I was afraid to be "sand-boxed" or panda slapped and **** like that.

Upon the end of January, I joined ALN and "sacrificed" three domains to the network, i donated 1 pr2 and 2 pr1 domains, giving me a total of 2 submissions a day (i am thinking of increasing that in the near future). The network did wonders for me! from an average of 3 unique visits a day ( im ranked 20-30+ for my main keyword, i jumped to an average of 52 a day, rank number 3 on the exact search, and 6 on the broad phrase of the same keyword (which has more searches a day btw). I was very happy because of this because i started getting clicks from amazon and adnsense to the point that have decided that i will be setting a monthly website budget for SEO, content building.





But this morning i got shocked to find that during the 8 hours that i slept, i only had 1 visitor. I proceeded with Traffic Travis and Market samurai to check the status of competition and i was shocked that (depending on the tool) i was either ranked lower on the top 10 or lower than the top 100. :c

here is the screenshot of the rankings i took days prior to the "crash", and the result i just got today.


what the hell just happened??!! :c

anyway, heres the layout of my website. I have about 5 pages of unique 450+ word contents.


I have a hunch that it could be a google slap because of the above the fold adsense codes. I did removed two of the three codes above + the voltrank code. and i'll wait for google to "view me" again. I hope that was the only issue. :c


anyway, heres my "SEO blue print" everyday.

1. free socialmonkee submission
2. 2 ALN submission using random related anchor texts.
3. Random google +ing, facebook sharing, bookmarking with my "syndication group".

Again, I hope that this is just a phase. :c
