Well blog #1 and #2 are still doing well and ranking at #3 and #4 in Google respectively.  However, my disappointment today is that blog #3 has gone!  It hasn’t been de-indexed, it is still indexed but it has dropped right out of ranking in the top 1000.

This is the oldest out of the three blogs (only by about a month) and has more content than the other two blogs so I wasn’t really expecting this.  I’m hoping this is just the Google Dance which I’ve heard about where new sites can just disappear and then a few days later they come back.  Often they will come back ranked higher than they were before they disappeared.

So fingers crossed that it is just the Google dance and that it hasn’t just been lost for good.  I would think if it was anything serious it would be de-indexed completely and not just drop drastically in ranking.  It is actually ranking at #1 in Yahoo for my keyword phrase so that is one good thing at least.

Just a slight setback though and I wont let it get me down, I’m sure it will come back.  I might concentrate on this blog next week and add a bit more content and more backlinks to help it get back up in ranking.

It’s the weekend now, so I have a couple of days off and then I will get back into it on Tuesday (long weekend here in Australia for ANZAC Day).
