I think this is best thing to do during updates... we never know where we'll land. We've dropped from page 2 to page 5 now we're on page 4, hope we'll be among top 10 when the update is over
I'm seeing this for one or two smaller websites, were in top ten, then jump out to nowhere, then jump back higher
Every day different results from serps so, i agree with rubeina. Bets thing to do during the updates is, just wait until update finish.
lost my #1 ranking for my key term today - went from page 2 then 3 then it was nowhere to be found. Late today it returned to #1 no idea what is going on - I am also getting hits for other terms I am not reallly competing for. I noticed the cached verison of my page has been changing also it has gone back to a older version now
