This keyword has been dancing between number 1 and 110 for over 2 months as you can see.
It still ranks number 1 for long tail keyword so therefore the page is indexed. This is a super easy KW and I am not building any links to this particular URL, although other pages on my MS are receiving backlinks from PBNs and are ranking very well (only issue with this particular KW). You can find high quality hand written text on this page.

That looks to me like there is something about your site that G picks up every now and then and penalizes you for it. But then when it crawls again it doesn't find it so you go back up again. Maybe keyword density? Does the page content change between crawls?
 
thanks for your reply.
1. I do not get any notifications in GWT.
2. KW density is not higher than I have on my other pages which rank without issues
3. I haven't done any changes to the content
 
Do you have a competitor in the niche with a ton of churn and burn BH ranking attempts?
 
thanks for your reply.

You wouldn't see a message in GWT, it will be an algorithmic thing. Something technical maybe, that G doesn't like. Are there any ads on the page that would be different between crawls?
 
Hi mate,

It is happening to many sites particularly after the google update in November.

If you have unique content means not require to change anything.

Be patient. Let it settle down naturally.
 
Looks strange.. if it is like the second poster say it is strange that the G algo works like this!
 
Looks like an average dance to me really, how long is it in the 100+ rankings when it falls?
 
This is juts average dance because that page does not have any links as you said. Page receives link juice from other pages trough the site and dancing around, nothing to worry about.
 
Normally a G dance should last 2-3 weeks. But 2 months is quite strange. Maybe someone is doing negative seo on your website. Try to check your links and see if you have links you didn't build.
