Hi everyone,
Im new to this site and have been using the p lance course for about 3 months.
Does anyone know how to contact Mike because I have left a few emails but have not had any replies.
I also set up a site that got to no.3 in the googl rankings for my main keyword but then 2 days later it dropped to no.30 and has been bouncing between no.10-30. I had'nt added a new page for about 2 weeks so could this be the reason for the slump?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Matt

Hi Matt and welcome!
I have heard others ask how to contact Mike but my guess is that you will have a hard time getting him as it is very time consuming to help each person individually.
As far as Google - it happens. Sometimes your site will be bounced all over the place for awhile especially in about the one - three week phase, but I do know this... if you have a good keyword phrase and keep adding content, people WILL find you.
I have sites that bounced around for awhile and then just kinda vanished and I also have sites that stay right up there with almost no effort, and it all depends on the keywords, content, etc...
Hopefully someone else will pop in here with still more tips for you as I know darn well, that I don't know it all yet.

Hi Matt,
Mountain nailed it.
Yes, it could also be that you haven't added new content "for about 2 weeks" provided you had been adding new content on a regular basis up to that point.
I suggest that you try to add new content every day if you can, otherwise at least once or twice a week. It also depends upon acquiring new back links, how often people are clicking on your link in the SERPs, how long visitors are staying on your site, page views, and more.
Furthermore, it depends on what your competition is doing. A lot goes into the ranking algorithm.
