Hi,

I have a domain which is fluctuating between 2nd and 5th page every other day. Is this normal? Should it be a sign of a penalty.

My domain is CheapUsedWidget.com and I am trying to get good position for "Cheap Used Widget" phrase.

It's not exactly "normal" but it is relatively widespread. This is something we've been calling the Yo-Yo Phenomenon [webmasterworld.com] and the causes are not well understood.

In addition to the above thread, there's a current discussion with some ideas about the yo-yo here: [webmasterworld.com...]

I'm going to lock this thread so we have only one current discussion on the topic.
