Does Google have a problem?

Discussion in 'Google' started by Lordo, Apr 10, 2006.

    It can't be just me. My friends started complaining too.

    1- Google last cached most of the sites no later than 5 April. Although I have sites with daily crawling, it has been since 5 April now and no cache updates.

    2- Google adsense is not stable. It shows some of the ads on some pages and hides the others. Even Hurricane ads are not showing.

    Is anyone experiencing this too? Check your page's cache at google to see the last visit.

    Edit Reason: I mean google caching the pages, not visiting them.

    I do. I have some very annoying white spaces on my newest pages. They seem to fill up after they get some traffic though.

    Problem #1 at least. Check the last spider's visit to your sites.

    That is normal. Haven't you noticed white areas again after being filled up?

    1) if Google considers a site very important it will crawl it every few hours

    2) how many ad units do you have on the same page?

    No I don't.
    Alive Directory's last cache is on Aprial 3rd.
    I am not talking about the visit itself, but about the cached version of the pages.

    1) I know. I am talking about a current temporary situation. Your last cache was stored on the 3rd of April for example.
    2) 3 ad units. And tried all variations until one ad only. Sometimes it shows sometimes not. On one of my friends' sites,

    Not really, they'd be usually filled with public ads.

    You should have clarified then, google visiting and google caching are two different beasts.

    I am having the same problem on my sites - the page has to be refreshed 3 times , each time showing 1 more ad

    I am getting sick of google and buying up products to sell on my sites with resale rights
    I have 3000 products now

    Only alitho.com was cached on the 8th. The other two sites were last cached the 5th. And this is the first site I see cached after 5 April.

    Just got this privately, which means I was right in discussing this issue:
    And I am worried because of two things:
    1- It seems that google started to put big daddy to work since before February's PR update. We have all witnessed it and the current update and we are in a mess because of that! And now, this is the first time for google to show a 6 days old version of the cache (for sites with daily caching normally). So, could big daddy be a small dady still and it is the reason for the current problems? Just a thought.
    2- People have already settled their lives to the revenue of adsense! Not all people but there are people who did so. God knows what will happen with drops like this one.

    Nobody wants to see google down. No webmaster at least :)

    Anybody else?
