I don't think thats the reason for site disappearing.
The major factor is when you make changes to your website. The result can be dropping in rankings and it usually takes several weeks to regain rankings or see increased rankings.

This is not uncommon for Google. Especially for new sites. If your rankings aren't restored within a couple of weeks it is safe to assume they aren't coming back any time soon. You will have to do what everyone else does to improve their rankings: keep adding unique quality content and promoting your site.
Additionally, Yahoo and Google rarely have similar results. Their algorithms are very different at the current time. So you can rank well in Yahoo and do poorly in Google.

Actually, the point of quality content is to get quality backlinks. You can't get a decent number of quality backlinks without quality content.

Remember, for every site losing rank there is another site gaining rank. This is normal. After all, how do you know that the sites gaining rank don't deserve to be ranked higher?

This happens to some sites. I read same prob in many other forums too.
Check your Backlinks with a PR. Does your link appear still same in that page?

What changes (however small) have you made? Also, has the number of inbound links to your site (or your competitors' sites) changed significantly?

Actually number of links isn't important. It's quality of links that matters.

PR has nothing to do with quantity. Never has. If a page's PR is dropping it is because it has less PR then it did before. They may have lost links, the links they have may have lower PR, or the PR being sent to those pages didn't climb faster then the rate pages are being added to the Internet (which affects the entire PR scale).

There is no Google minus 30 penalty. That's a myth started at Webmythworld.
