I just noticed something odd. I have a website which is a year old, it once ranked on the first position but my host expired and the domain got parked, this was 4 months ago. The competition on the first page is pretty tough with amazon, ebay and best buy running the first 5 results.
Last week I reclaimed the site, ran a backup, blasted with SB which left around 1000 live links to inner pages and main page, 300 Bookmarks, 1000 Wiki links and a couple of hundred web directories. 4 Days ago the site started to enter the serps again at 10-5 (Dancing) and since yesterday the site has been on position one, where it once was about 4 months ago.
My question, what is this magic? I'm getting 200 visitors and had 19 product clicks to amazon.
I'm sure I can't expect my rankings to stay but could this say something about the recent penguin/panda updates?
edit: what I forgot to say is that the domain was used as 301 to another site for about a month before I put wordpress+backup back
