I've had several sites with huge increases, one site that was doing awesome dropped like a bomb, and another site that's been sandboxed for 8 months is still nonexistent.
I have had some crazy crazy CRAZY SERP's results today. I've been watching around 30 keywords every day of which I was number 1 in 6 of before today. I switched on the Digital Point keyword tracker(plug) to check my keywords like I do every 2 or 3 days to find that 10 of my keywords have gone to number 1 with another 5 back into the top 30 results after having been nowhere. I hope these results dont change as it will only be bad for me. I also found that I had the number 1 spot for a keyword which returns 16 million results on Google which is probably the best result I've had yet! Pleased just isn't the word
Hey thats brilliant - congrats! What I found with this update was. One of my sites which all info was really relevant did great. The other site literally anythign that was not relevant was dumped. Its seems like a "sensible update" literally like someone went through it and said - yes its true this site does this etc. etc. Go and celebrate with a wee bit of haggis, a few scotches and some Irn Bru for the hangover (great hangover stuff!)
Out here in the country, it's not unusual to have to sweep Google droppings off the step pretty much every morning...
I have the insider secret, this is where Google is headed: by popular demand they are keeping it real http://www.gizzogle.com/index.php?hl=en&ul=&criterion=sitetutor
Well, I hope it's a hick-up...but Google giveth and Google taketh away...so where the heck is Yahoo when you need it?
My rankings jumped yesterday and are holding steady today. One keyword even jumped another 40 spots. Woohoo! I love Bourbon...*hic* I just hope there isn't a hangover
