One of my hub used to be found in google search for a specific phrase.Now I don't find it in google search anymore for that phrase,even I don't find it if I search by the URL.Could you please tell me what can be the reason?thanks.
Can you see your site from "site:http://hubpages.com/....."?
If not, your hub could have probably been deindexed by Google for some reasons but I doubt that's the case.
You mean when you enter your hub's URL by the method Fayans has told, you get to see your hub?
If this is the case, your hub is not deindexed. It must have lost the ranking for some reason. Hubs going way down in the result pages abruptly can be due to some black-hat SEO technique applied, but Google's algo also keep on changing so an algo update could have affected you.
Now, if I put the url in google search its showing my hub, one hour back it was not showing. Still my hub is not visible in google for the phrase which used to bring my hub in the first page of google search;the phrase was "misunderstanding in relationships".
It happens. Whenever their algo changes, some of the sites go down in Search Engine Results. It might be back after a while. Always make sure you don't do anything that will cause your site to go down in SERPs.
It may have been de-indexed. That has happened to me on some occasions, but the pages have always ended up appearing on Google after a while. It seems to happen most often with my hubs that have been recently published.
My hub is 4 months old.Shall I resubmit my URL?
You shouldn't be submitting URLs to Google. Let Google find them naturally.
You really should not be submitting your URL's to any search engines, this can be detrimental. Remember that hubpages is a PR3/4 website. Google bots will scan your article within minutes of it being published and index accordingly.
If you really think its deindexed, just link out to it from one of your indexed hubs
I have read all that and it is just like a foreign language to me, i think men just naturally understand all these things better...... maybe i will find out differently in a minute
My hub is back in the Google search, but in the second page.
the phrase was "misunderstanding in relationships".I hope it will be back in the first page soon.thanks to all for support.
Like I said it will be back in a while.
It might make the first page too once again. Let's see.

There seems to be a bit of confusion as to the most effective URL naming protocol and to make matters a little more complicated, I strongly belief that the hub claiming system that is in place is making things a little... messy,Lets look first at the most common methods of URL structure. Here we...

One of my higher traffic hubs is showing increased traffic today; curious I searched for the keywords. The hub didn't show up in the first 30 spots, or it least it wasn't the proper color for having been visited.Closer examination showed that it was there, in position #4, first page. ...

How did my hub appear on the first page on Google search one day after publishing?I've published only 4 hubs so far and to my surprise, one hub appears on the first page of Google search the next day. I'm really curious. How did it happen? The other hubs don't appear though. ...

I thought if a hubpage was listed in Google search it was featured. But apparently that is not the truth. I guess I will keep the hubs up and run my own check on them.

Do you think the drop may be partially due to how the SERPS match search terms more closely? For instance my "How to Sow Seeds" guide is still in first position for the search term "How to sow seeds", but if I search for sowing seeds, it's way down the list, although it used to...
