Fluctuation in Page ranking or SERP are very common for new websites. But still check canonical issue if it exists. Check weather the content is original or duplicate because duplicate content is major reason for decrease in ranking.

Well its called google dance. New sites get ranking quickly but always tends to loose its position soon. Dont worry about that and keep your seo work going because its natural and happens to everyone. Just continue building quality backlinks and you surely will get good results.

Search engine rankings rise and fall frequently. Of course no one wants to go from the front page of the SERP to #51 for any length of time. It feels bad when that happens, and you automatically think - What happened? How long will this last?

Understanding why a webpage can plummet in the rankings can take some of the sting out of the situation as well as give you insights for preventing this situation. Here are the most common reasons for a change in rankings.

Changes in Search Engine Algorithm. Search engines are always trying to improve their search processes and this means changing their algorithm by which rank is calculated and some trial and error testing as well. If there has been a change you might move up or down. Wait a week and if the ranking stays low find out on the webmaster forums what adjustments to the algorithms were made. After that you will need to re-optimize your website to get back to the high ground.
