    I'm seeing some very small fluctuations. My current most important keywords remained in their positions. The only thing affected are the smaller, less important keywords to my site (some good, some bad, I'm not seeing a trend)

    Lost everything just about across the board for about 2 days. Most kw's have bounced back but a few are still lingering way down in the results. Overall, I've taken a small step backward.

    Still in the Sandbox. Principal KW nowhere (discernable) in Google, #3 in Yahoo, #1 in MSN per the DP KW Tracker. No effect on traffic (extremely low), but then, such as it is, traffic comes about 20% from AdWords PPC, and the rest from referrals - very little SE generated traffic, ...somehow Google is still about 65% of what SE traffic that there is.

    I'm in the top 10 for a lot of keywords and every single keyword I'm checking for is under the top 40.
    I'm loving it! :D

    Our site was really hurt in the Feb 2nd update. But to add injury - we lost most of the remaining traffic during this update.

    The strange thing - we are still ranking high on MSN, Yahoo, and ASK. No problems at all. Complete white hat site full of informative articles. Google used to love us. We used to get four times the traffic from Google that we got from Yahoo. It is now switched. We get ten times the traffic from Yahoo that we get from Google.

    No changes to any of my sites either.

    I guess I don't match whatever it was they were targeting.

    Great update, couldn't be happier. I was seeing kw rankings similar to pre December of last year but have lost quite a few, but still with the extra yahoo/msn traffic along side decent google serps my site is doing pretty well :)
