Default Rankings are Slipping

Hi,

Until recently, my site Businesses for Sale - Buy & Sell Australian Business for Sale was ranking on page 1 at Google for the search term 'business for sale', but over the past 2 months I have slowly dropped to page 3.

Until recently, my site was also ranking on page 1 at Google for the search term 'business for sale', but over the past 2 months I have slowly dropped from the 2nd position to almost the bottom of page 1.

I don't understand why?

When I check the link pop (marketleap.com) for my site and my competitors (bsale.com.au & businessforsale.com.au ) I am clearing way stronger. I have more than 10 time their links.

What can I do to claw my way back to the top of page 1 at google.com.au and google.com?

All help is greatly appreciated and I look forward to your reply.

Regards

watto

Use anchor text for your keywords and build more links and add contents to your site....Especially informative contents...

Update the site regularly with good content or else go for a blog and post relevant content so that you can tell the SE's that you are updating the site.

Try to include "business for sale" as the anchor text in your link building campaign.
