Hopefully the dancing will settle down soon, because imagine all that valid traffic that stops from coming in.
Happens to most of the site, concentrate on building good links incontent and your site will be back sooner or later.
I also lost some of the rankings because of Google Dance. It set down after some time so no need to worry about it.
Its got a lot of backlinks built steadily over time so I don't think its due from lack of backlinks. And its more than one site, its a few of mine (but not all).
Its a time for google dance.. so don't be tense the results would automatically stabilize and come in normal position what you had earlier
I'm sooooo glad I don't bother getting caught up in all that Google dance rubbish anymore. Makes life so much sweeter. Build content and ignore Google...
MY PR just jumped from 0 to 3 on one of my major landing pages on the unpenalized site. And I noticed the PR is fluctuating on the one major landing page still ranking well on the site thats lost most of its ranking on good keywords. I think were going through a major PR update and maybe thats why the google dance is so big recently. Hopefully we all return back to our original (or better rank).
This happened to me for only one keysword, which placed my site on page 1. That particular link itself has been removed by google now, it no longer indexes that page fo mine. Strange because I dd no chances on it recently.
My site has been switching 4th and 5th in Google since the end of December. This week I have been a steady 3rd! Which is great, but my Adsense earning dropped today. I am hoping it's another stat freeze.
My rankings are still not coming back. My front page is ranking, but my other pages are not. site:mydomain.com shows all of the stuff is still indexed. The pages that are not showing up have between 25-100 inbound links each, and were ranking #1 for the keyphrase before the google dance. So, instead of freaking out about it, i'm just plugging in my 9 new pages of content, and concentrating on the link building of those pages, i'm hoping that my rankings come back soon though, since i have been at 0 traffic since the 31st
my traffic dropped 1/4, no obvious ranking change and two keywords even jumped to the second and third page. but one main keyword ranking better but gone again.
My pagerank updated a few days ago from a 3 to a 4 and my main keyword moved up from position #6 to #4 - all seemed well. And then a couple of hours ago my site totally disappeared from the SERPs for pretty much everything but my site name. This happened a couple of weeks ago also and it was only gone for a few hours so I hope that is the same today and that it will come back where it was or better. I hate how they mess with you like this.
I believe that Google restructured their ranking system. This happened a while back too, lots of domains got downgraded from like 5 to 4.... it was really annoying, i hope they don't make a habit out of it.
My rankings still haven't returned to normal on said sites. I think the update hasn't hit the serps full yet.
