When I check the mcdar tool I find that I m ranked really high for one of my major keywords on like half the DCs can somebody tell me what I should expect is it going to stay like that or will it have the same results evetually for all DCs? Also what are my chances that the new ranking sticks? Is it like PR that when you see it higher in one or more DCs that is probably going to be your PR.... Also can some one tell me how long this lasts.... Thanks
How high is up? How long is a piece of string? Nobody knows the answer to your questions with any certainty. If your site is showing a higher placement that it ever has before on some datacenters then yes, I'd guess there is a good chance it will eventually get a similar position on all datacenters. Why don't you go read the McDar thread for detailed statistic about how the experimental page has moved up and down and what was happening in the datacenters at the same time. There is another thread on here -- I forget the name-- that quotes one of the people who work at Google suggesting this upgrade/change may have two or three more iterations about a week a part. What does that mean? Nobody knows for sure, but maybe thing will finally settle down again for awhile around November 5 or 12.
THere is supposed to be a couple of more Google updates on the way so stay tuned for that before panicking.
