Hi Jarno,
Thanks for your response. I build links through article on my own personal blog and I also build links through another website through free article submission.I make one article a day, with the keywords that are repeated about two-three times per article. So far I have not received any warning from Google.
I am not sharing content on a different site and feel that I am not over optimizing as the article is only written once a day. Unfortunately since this is a work I am doing for a client I cannot share much information. Would it be possible for you to show me, what I can look for from the domain name and recent articles I write?
I really appreciate you helping out. ThanksRegards,
Debbie

Debbie,
there is no clear explanation due to the dropping of rankings based on your question. Is all you do build articles on your own site with links to different pages or do you optimize pages according to the predetermined method and build links to the article and page on different hight authority communities (like moz?) and social media? Do you share content with different website? Did you over-optimize the pages? Did you receive links from "suspicious" websites or perhaps did you buy some links to the article?
There can be a ton of reasons for the droppings of your rankings. Can you provide us with an example page of your website? For instance the domainname and a recent article you wrote so we can take a look at that?
Regards
Jarno

Ranking fluctuations from week to week
Over the past couple of months I have seen a couple of my campaigns have key phrases that change from week to week from being in the top 3 to being >51. I worked pretty hard on the sites to get them mostly #1 for their preferred key phrases, and haven't been working that hard lately, but not sure what to make of it. It looks as though those keyphrases that dropped this week to >51 will probably be back in the top 3. Makes it diffuclt when you are trying to prepare a report for your client. Any suggestions are welcomed, and Happy New Year!

Branded keywords
I'm trying to understand this concept a little further. Say if I create a branded keyword, "dc widgets" I then start to add keywords such as "maker" "toy" and apply the branded keyword to it. Does this mean that they then become "maker dc widgets" and "toy dc widgets" ? What purpose does branded keywords offer?

Why is my site not ranking?
I have done various link building strategies, and used all white hat seo methods. SEOMoz even shows that my site is better than all my competition, but yet it doesn't rank ANYWHERE on Google. Can someone point me in the right direction as to why this is happening? I have attached the opensitexplorer screenshot showing my competition. 2013-02-13_1456_zpsb86ab0e1.png

My Google Keyword Rankings are Missing. Anyone else having this problem?
I logged in to pull my reports for my clients and noticed that I am missing all of my ranked keywords for my campaigns for the Google columns. One word is ranked. All the rest have a TUES sign that looks like it references Tuesday. Is anyone else having this issue? I had over 30 words ranked last week. Only showing 1 today. The rankings for Bing and Yahoo are intact though. There is no report showing a decline in ranking for all those words either (in the google column.) This is also happening in another campaign of mine but they have a WEDS in place of the google ranking... ugh Frustrated...

Page Rank and offline sites
I have a domain with PR6 according to the Historical Pagerank Checker. But that last PR was calculated 2 years ago. I brought the site back online a few days ago and have checked that many/most of the backlinks are still valid. It is now in the Google index but the Historical Pagerank Checker shows PR0. Will it get back its previous rank or something close to it? How long will it take?
