Hi,
I have a site at URL: FreeProxyTool.com,
On Sunday, its rank was number 7 in Google ("Free Proxy Tool" keyword), it was so good cause there are more than 2,300,000 results...
Then on Monday, my site disappeared and i couldn't find it in the first 10 pages.
Today, my site is back with number 7
--------------------------
I am really confused of what is happening?
and how to keep its current rank?
-------------------------
need your helps

It happens all the time. You would be looking at a different datacentres

you are also 302 redirecting to http://www.freeproxytool.cuongdao.com/ that's the url that the SEs are going to index not http://www.freeproxytool.com/

<added> BTW I wouldn't waste my time optimising for a phrase like that,
zero searches at Overture,
zero searches at Wordtracker

= zero worthwhile traffic

</added>

hi chrishirst,
can you tell me a little bit more ab 302 redirecting?
now i am using URL forwarding: www.freeproxytool.com -> www.freeproxytool.cuongdao.com
is it the reason?

chrishirst has a good point!
We have noticed some real flux in the Google results this past week. Our Online Shopping Mall has hit a skid on a number of it's top terms but they should come back in a week or so. It's enough to make you pull your hair out but it's just different data centers that your searching and they continually change around. Enjoy the ride and look for averages over time as a solid refference. Hope this helps

302 is bad. Get a hosting with unlimited (or limited but very large) bandwidth and setup mod_rewrite proxy redirection in apache. I did so on my site http://mobile.getsomesoft.com/ which is in fact http://mtishetsky.hit-logo-ringtone.com/, but nobody knows.

UPD:
If you can get freeproxytool.com to the same physical server as freeproxytool.cuongdao.com then bandwidth will not be a problem. But still you will have to get disk space to place .htaccess there.

"Google Dances" are almost like "Wild Dances" of that girl from Ukraine on Eurovision!

I don't think u should worry about results in PR these days.
