I had top search results on certain keywords with some of my articles. but google started to ignore them now and it completely ignores all pages with this keyword. I lost top search position and other sites that copied my article and even gave referral link back to the article are on top results.my site is listed in google, crawl able, and with no infection report on google webmaster tools. What caused this and how can I fix it?
