Google finally gives attention to a webmaster, then just as quickly turns it's back.

This is so common with Google, but I have found it to be even more dramatic with Yahoo. For one day, one page on my site was at positions 1 and 2 in Yahoo for "bruce lee diet", and on that day I had almost 1000 visits to just that page. I was thinking - wow, if all pages were like that, I'd be receiving a quarter of a million visitors a day! Ofcourse, it did not last, and I did not even have much in the way of ads on my site at the time, so I missed out on an opportunity I guess. SEO is a real funny game. You can try to promote a page for weeks and get nowhere, then out of the blue a page you had ignored would suddenly perform well for a day.

Burgemeister,
Thanks for your comment. It makes you wonder what causes the hiccup in the algo or indexing that causes these rare days.
