Google ranking update

    After two long years of slide downward my site, which has 100% original non-spammy content, never asked for or paid for a link, just took a jump up. Starting Sunday 25 August our traffic increased about 30% and has continued for three days this week. In the past when we have had this happen it was only a site in India hammering one of our pages, but in this case it is an across-the-board improvement.

    Has anyone else seen a change in their Google performance?

    thanks
    wiz

    not yet... as i am getting the same number of visitors as it should be... may be ur hard work of writing unique content leads to a good traffic and the pages are now indexed for your site and you get a boost from google traffic.. I would like to see your website URL to tell you the performance of your website..

    Many of my sites have been around the same, although they still continue to grow every couple of months. It's always nice when you see a big increase like that now just be sure to continue doing whatever it is that you're doing so the numbers continue to rise!

    My traffic doubled starting on August 26th. I thought it was related to school starting (since my site is an arcade) but now I don't know.

    It may be google pushing e-commerce sites towards adwords, and kill organic results.

    I've seen a 20% increase on most of my websites, and on very few websites a slightly bigger percentage of decrease in traffic.

    Next update maybe current "quality" websites will get 50% less visitors!
    For me simple look like google rotate things every few months because on some of my old websites they sometimes sending a lot lot visitors and that working few months on that way, after it they again sending almost nothing but after few months again back with a lot visitors...without any changes on my side!
