Hey everyone, I made the mistake of building too many backlinks too fast and to be honest they were not the best of quality either. As a result my website fell off the SERP rankings yesterday from positions like #87 and #122 to no where.
Please tell me if I should let the website sit for a week or so without link building or should I build high quality links in hope that they neutralize the bad quality ones or what other steps I should possibly take to regain my position on the SERPs.

Thanks in advance guys I really would appreciate any help or advice
 
Is your site still indexed?
 
How many links have you been making? 100's? 1000s?

It could just be a 'Google Dance' and you may actually end up going higher up the ranks, but if you have over done it on the backlinking then you may find your self going deeper than ever. You should leave it alone for a couple week then see what your ranking. If you arn't in the top 500 its likely youll have been penalyzed.
 
yes, nwworkwear is right. It is Google Dance needn't worry. if that was due to penguin your site would have been disappeared.
wait for 2 to 4 weeks and watch.
 
If it is a new site then dont worry because it is Google dance. if old site then you have ave to wait and watch for further dip in the ranking. In that case you have to work from the beginning. Mostly it is Google Dance Only.
 
Don't stop building links, If you think your links are not quality links start building quality links Only. If you can delete worthless links just delete it.
 
Thank you so much for your input guys. The site is about a month old and it is now below the 500 mark. I've build about 500-1500 backlinks and yes i am still indexed.
 
Your site was probably sandboxed. Keep building quality backlinks and deoptimize your site if you used a keyword too many times.
 
Now you have to wait and watch what google is doing with your site it's will be take 3 to 5 weeks to stay your site on any positon. After penguine update there is the some rules of build links.
 
So I guess I'll make sure than any link I build will be high quality such as web 2.0, social networking and such to see where my site goes from there
