Strange ranking issue...

    My site for the last 10 days has ranked 4 - 7 for a keyword phrase when hitting Google via the IP or hitting any of the data centers. The same result when viewing from Safari on my iPhone. However, when viewing the site from several networks on desktops, the site is always 77 - 80.

    Everything in the Google Webmaster console checks out. It shows I have 230 backlinks, yet using the link: operator on google.com shows 0 backlinks. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

    link: operator only updates like once per year, different datacenters may have you in different serp spots and you may be getting a different one when logging in from a different computer

    What is odd is out of the 20 datacenters I have checked, they all have me in the 4 - 7 position. Why would google.com have it so far off?

    i would say its because soon google.com will have you in 77-80 like all the other datacenters.... why because you said "the last 10 days has ranked 4-7" all my new indexed pages appear high on google for a "short period of time"

    I am not sure if you read my post correctly. Currently all the datacenters have me in the 4th - 7th position. Google.com has me in 77th - 80th position.
