Agreed. you did so much work on Alive web directry, just as i did to keep my main site pr6 but it still went down to the predicted 5 2 months ago. Its as if this is the update that started in february and never got the new numbers/changes done til april.
PR update is on the way...surely this is gonna be huge. I have been noticing heavy changes in terms of no. of pages in google. My site pages jumped from 100 pages to 12800 pages recently!! Infact all of my sites are showin pr3-pr4 rankings!! Lets hope for the best. Regards, Admans.
My fluctuation was in traffic, not so much in SERPs. I saw a big jump in traffic March 20-25, then a settling back to normal since then. Who knows?...
I have been getting some pretty sweet jump for many of my competitive KWDS ... Has anybody else been experiencing the same??
Matt Cutts finally speaks out!! "This most recent update has many webmaster puzzled. Let me help with a simple explanation. All new websites (and shortly) older sites will be based on a toolbar page rank of 20 (instead of 10). We are just in the proccess of updating the various Google tool bars with the proper graphic."

Which updates are you reffering to Would it not be better to post this in a thread where they are talking about an update so they can answer you?
I said never...your sites position will change every night at midnight Pacific Time (well, it could potentially change as thats when the SERPs are updated)
What is so strange about this update if we are all doing the right thing? We are following clean SEO techniques, building links and content. I wish I was working on more sites before this update!
I really fell for this one, i was frantically searching matcutts blog (as i could not open that URL in your post). i could not find anything related to your post, and then i read the bottom line in your post. I was really eager to get some evidence and share this news with my SEO mates and clients. Nice One.
