    What Is The Google Dance?

    Whenever we are at trade shows, run seminars, or speak at symposiums we get asked the question "what is the Google dance?" We've heard a few different things referred to as "the Google Dance", but only one is really correct. It's the period when Google is rebuilding its rankings, and results fluctuate widely for a 3 to 5 day period.

    It just means that your site recently changed something that affected it's rankings, more often than not it's because of lots of new backlinks. It may jump around for a bit after that, but then settle down.

    The name "Google Dance" is often used to describe the index update of the Google search engine. Google's index update occurs on average once per month. It can be identified by significant movement in search results and especially by Google's cache of all indexed pages reflecting the status of Google's last spidering. But the update does not proceed as a switch from one index to another at one point in time. In fact, it takes several days to complete the index update. During this period, the old and the new index alternate on www.google.com. At an early stage, the results from the new index occur sporadically. But later on, they appear more frequently. Google dances.
