Swickis disappearing from Google SERPs?

    Is it just mine or did anyone else's Swickis fall from Google SERPs? Mine were doing quite well, even outdoing some of my own site's results. I was quite happy and my biggest Swicki was "worth" mid-$XX,XXX.

    In the last week though, *poof*, gone. They're not there in the listings anymore. I went from earning decent money from them with Adsense to nearly nothing today.

    What's up?

    Yeah it does seem pretty convenient for google to knock out the competition with a new algo update.

    This was to be expected.

    Google had stated any search should contain rel=nofollow tags.

    Eurekster (Swicki) have implemented this themselves - or it could have been a reason why the google guys went to New Zealand to duff up the Eurekster guys (jk).

    My swicki had only just made it into ranking well so I only had a good week or 10 days before it disappeared again - I kinda switched to google CSE as swicki didn't allow complete control over which sites were able to return results.
