My site changes daily in the serp it drives me crazy, the worst thing is a keyword that you havent done any work on suddenly goes up and the ones you are working on go down!
please look the search result of google .. it shows 12 urls in 1st page all websites http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=buy+pressure+washer&btnG=Search&aq=f&oq=&aqi=
What he is trying to say. when he types buy pressure washer. it should show some website or a buying portal.. instead it shows websites, thats true. actually. something misplacement going on with google currently..
I thought that I was the only who have problems (Im new in this SEO thing). I actually thought that maybe I did something wrong (I know my techniques where ethical by google standards), and I see a lot of consensus with my problem in this thread. Google may seem to have an update.
well google always updates , but you should have plenty of content on a lot of pages to deal with changes, your website should never linear , but random. but google is cracking down hard and will be cracking down even harder on black hat methods and on affiliate pages especially with no privacy page, free material , acai berry , trademark infringements , and will be focusing their search engine on branding probably for the next 10 years , they really want to move to a more of a brand result
I wish Google was a little more open with their methodology. Oh well, I guess that is what makes all of this so much fun.
I have been finding that new sites which I am getting rankings for "bop around" alot during the first 3 months, once you have a couple hundred links out there for your keywords though you will just bop around the top few listings for a while and then once you totally dominate your competition with links you will start to "stick". I think it will be much harder to bring new sites up to the top in a few years as they tighten up their criteria even more...
Yes, they definitely update it constantly... and even more often since they started to integrate the caffein index.
My site's traffic also dropped. The main source is google therefore I think something is changing with google search.
For the last few days I see an increase of traffic from google. But my formerly pages still don't rank. The increase comes from one settled page wich appears now with more keywords. Any news from your sites ?
It's Halloween. I am seeing alot of fluctuations starting yesterday. It will be interesting to see how everything setlles since it is a Holiday weekend.
Well being that it is very close to Thanksgving my guess is it is the typical Holiday shuffle to gain adsense dollars.. Just a guess.
We all see that the webmaster tool's page is grossly behind in its reporting. I almost have double the backlinks according to Yahoo site explorer. It seems as google updates the links once a month. My keywords are all over the map and was saddened to see a drop from #1 to no where this past week. I hope it settles down enough so that we can see if it is just google making changes or if we are getting penalized in some fashion in their new ranking criteria.
