So I am just testing the waters to see if I can make some of that proverbial "fat cash" everyone on here seems to be making. I found a really low competition niche, built a wordpress site, and a few days later I was ranked "3" for my key words in google. So far so good.

I decided to up the ante and do some link backs, figured I would start with squidoo. I made some changes to my metatags as well. Once I built my squidoo page, I added a link back to my site.

Wake up this morning, I can't find my site for my key words. Well, I guess I can, but it's on page 64 now. Wtf.

My friend says he can see my site with my keyword search in google, and I am number 1. So at this point I am stumped. No idea what is happening now. I assume this is google's many servers doing something funky and I got smacked down. I figure I am hitting one server and my friend is hitting another.

Can anybody shed some light on what is happening here, and how long I might have to wait for it to shake out?

Um, never mind. My site is back, and it is now number 1. Time to start making some money.
