Once the honeymoon is over, similar to marraige, the real work begins. How you build your rankings back up to where they were during the Google honeymoon period is by using various on-page, on-site, and off-site SEO techinques. IMO off-site SEO carries the most weight in typical ranking algorithms for the various search engines. Having inbound links from pages on other sites that are indexed pointing to your URL with your URL's targeted keyword phrase (or a slight variation of the that phrase) is the most important way to increase your URL's ranking for it's targeted keyword phrase(s). It's even better if the page linking to your URL has high PR and/or is relevant to your page's targeted keyword phrase.

Will request you to highlight on steps one should take to retain or regain those positions one enjoyed during the Google honeymoon period. As I feel, every one will be even more interested in this as they all need a solution or a good piece of advise. Keep the good work going. Thanks, Bhavin Nice Post..
