I dropped about 100 ranks from roughly 350-450. I have recently been adding backlinks to my site as a means to increase my site's ranking. Keep in mind that the site is around 2 weeks old. Yet I didn't purchase any links or do anything of that sort. Although I did submit to several online directories, some of which required a reciprocal link. Do any of you guys have any ideas as to why I suffered such a severe drop. Any ideas or insight would be greatly appreciated. THANKS I just had a huge drop in serp today.

It's now back to ~600 (the line on the graph marks the number 1000). I actually do IP changes when I deal with The Great Firewall of China for some of my China related sites. A VPS/dedicated account with an IP range is essential. Thanks ... :)

But no need to answer... I had a problem on a site once from 302 redirects to the home page. There were no 404 errors -- the hosting company had set the server to 302 redirect back to the home page instead. One day Google and MSN both suddenly killed the site in the SERPs, which I thought might have been because the engines had spidered some bad URLs and hit too many strange redirects. But I got it back to the front page on both search engines within 48 hours by immediately moving servers and making sure it sent correct 404 headers. I think the IP change triggered the search engines into thoroughly re-indexing, and... somehow it worked. I wonder if the domain name change set off a similar trigger. Great blog, BTW... have been reading for a couple of months. Oh, sorry, I meant general numbers... But no need to answer...

We're talking about a 90% drop to almost no incoming traffic from Google. Like you can see on the graph. We're talking about a 90% drop to almost no incoming traffic from Google.
