I recently dropped to 63 in google for the keyword ESL (talking of course about eslgo.com). I thought there must be some problem since I had been constantly moving up and had been in the 20s not two months ago.
So I did a search for allinachor:esl as as we've come to expect from Google the results amtch the actual esl search results almost exactly. In fact I'm #63 for the allinanchor search too.
So why am I falling so swiftly in SERPs and with the allinachor. I do a search for link:eslgo.com which showed over 16,000 a couple of weeks ago. Today? link:eslgo.com = 781 and all variations like www and .com/ and with http:// are also 781.
Where did my 15,000 links go? Even Yahoo shows only 2,420...
In the old days it took forever for a new page on eslgo.com to get it's toolbar PR. Not these days.
I recently set up a vocabulary class that featured a link to a sauna site as the lone advertiser. I gave the page verypage links and voila! 2 weeks later the page is PR 5.
I see this as a positive bcuse I can offer people a very powerful link on a page full of relevant content. I wish there I could find sites offering me the only external link on a page with a bunch of content about my site and good link popularity....
