I'm seeing odd things happening which tends to occur before somekind of update. We're due a BL update so I'm guessing that's what we're going to see. My SERPs are bouncing all over - from #2->#4->#40->#1 (site has never hit #1 before for this keyword). I'm also seeing some very strange pages counts using the api on my own machine (I think it might be my programming though) - I don't like seeing site: drop from 300+ to 19 pages especially when I'm expecting it to increase quite a bit.
I'm noticing big movement in serps, looks like my manic 2 months of link building is paying off!! No change in PR yet, in fact has anyone seen a change in PR? I know theres another thread on this but to be honest I'm feeling a bit lazy
I see a small roll back on the PR front... looks like old PR numbers to me... I hope. I should add, I only see PR changes on a few DC'a AND only for 2 of the 6 site I track.
I am seeing the same thing. I call it dump-and-jump. It also seems like backlinks will change for a short time (on some datacenters, and it reverts quickly) about a week to 10 days before the actual update. I usually check the dP keyword tracker around 10AM Central, and have seen it twice now. Last time, it showed 30 on the 8th. Dropped back to 22, and on the 19th, I had 29 reported. But I seem to be way under reported still.
I am not seeing anything with google dance or the php script but http://www.seochat.com/seo-tools/future-pagerank/ is clearly showing a rollback in PR on my new sites that received PR last update. They are back to zero on several data centers but holding their PR on others. Funny thing is the rollback is not systematic. I lost page rank on different data centers for different sites. Oh, btw, getting that script was a pain. They claim they aren't going to spam me but given the half dozen pop ups and pop unders they threw at me to download it, I am very glad I used a disposable email address to get it.
For the first time in months, my rankings are dropping!... this is on about half the data centers, seeing some of them dropping from top ten to not in the top hundred.
I'm seeing good increases in SERPs across the board. Still very weird results using API from home - but that I think is me miss reading the docs. I'm convinced there's been at least an internal IBL update. Finally, I've knocked a rival site of top spot - not a competitive keyword only 150K results - they have same homepage PR as mine, many less IBL's but do have a dmoz entry.
Nearly all words that I am ranking well in using the co-op have dropped out of the top 100. Anyone else have this happen?
Yep. Myself also. It's not looking good at the moment, but it is to early to panic. I don't think this update has finished.
