Big changes of SERP today

[PinoyIto]

Does anyone here encounter the same I have 3 site the positioning top 1 for a very competitive keyword for the pass 4 months and I constantly update and build link popularity of them but now I can't find nowhere in the SERP.

[BFTUK]

Not seeing any change over here.

[seoindiaweb]

Yeah i see changes here..

[dhruv37]

I have also notice the same.

There are some major changes in SERP positions.

[ROAR]

Since whenever msn started 20 months ago (?) I have been in the top spots for every keyword I had. Today, my rankings seem to have gone down.

Too early to try and determine whats up. For one keyword I went from #1 to about 14. 1/2 of the pages are from the manufacturer of the product. OK, I suppose. The other 1/2 have the keyword in the domain.

MSN is screwed up big time at the minute. Its costing me about $1000 per week until they sort it.

msn always screws up this way

I'm in a mathy kinda mood:

MSN sends me about 10% of SE traffic and seems that's a good percentage for a lot of people so based on that:

I am also gonna alter your "about $1000.00 per week" to exactly $1050.00/week or $150.00/day

If you lost all your MSN traffic and all the traffic to your site was from SEs (no links etc.) then the other 90% makes you $1350.00/day, $9450.00/week or up to $41,850/month.

A more realistic result is that you lost 1/2 your MSN traffic in which case the loss of $150.00 day is a result of a loss of 5% of your traffic which means you're still getting $2850.00/day, $19,1950.00/week or upto $88,350/month.

Now SEs account for the majority of my traffic, i'd say 70%, so based on that a 50% loss in MSN would mean you make $4070.00/day, $28,490.00 week or up to $126,170/month.

Now lets take the $4,070.00/day and say you have a $2.00 epcm, that's
2,035,000 page views/day, which means it's over 60,000,000 million page views/month which means if you use adsense then you have a better deal with Google as a premium publisher and makes all my calculations null and void

So based on all my calculations, you're wearing red underwear.

Amazing how much your post said

[mad4]

LOL.

The site in question got most of its traffic from MSN as its quite new.

But MSN does provide any traffic.........

[JeremyL]

They improved a little. About 50% of the blogspot spam blogs are gone from what I was looking through. An improvement, but no golden bullet.

[aka_eu]

Yes , definitely somethings is going wrong with MSN but as ROAR is saying is too earlier to determine what is wrong.

I also have a website that 80% of the traffic is coming from MSN, and yes now these changes alerted me more than ever. Anyway I will start making some tests to see what is wrong.

[wmtips]

Yeah, Search Engine Update Monitor shows that about 50% of sites was dropped from the first page of MSN search results. Look at the data (link in the signature).

[sandossu]

i have 2 old sites on the same keyword, one with thousands of backlinks and old and another one with 10 backlinks, 1 week old.
the old one was #1 and now i can't find it and the other is now #2

so....stupid update i could say

[dondor]

I have a site that disappeared from the search results after being #1 for a really really really long time for its keyword and guess what?!
No, it's still gone.
But many changes occured today in MSN, mostly annoying changes.

[timothy104]

i see changes for the better

[ly2]

No changes for me. Matter of fact, I just did my keyword tracker a bit ago and I had ZERO moves in MSN. Nothing up and nothing down.
