ugh... It's messed up this time....:mad:

It really looks messed up. Nice cake out there

about time i get a ranking of 1 i have 3 of my sites on the same page with the same keyword and all ranked in the top 5 :) I happy

On another site people were saying that Google made some drastic changes to their algo this time. Sounds fun.

Hmm, in my keywords I got thrown from result #3 down to page 3, and a bunch of fuckin useless spamsites got the first page rankings.

Way to go google.. :(

WOW!

Google changed their algorithm!!!

O. k. time to find out what changed in detail :winkwink:

Hint - h1 tag...

wow

I agree, this is badly messed up. Most of my sites got moved from top 5 to 3rd page, here as well ...behind numerous spam sites with zero content, just a FPA to a sponsor. Did google start putting more emphasis on h1 tags? Who else is getting screwed by this update?

woj,

as far as I can see most of the 'big guys' here got hit by this update...

By the way with the h1 tag comment I meant it seems it is not so important for google anymore!

one phrase I target went from #5/#6 for several months to #1, while another I had #1 is about page 4 now.

Haven't figured out why yet, and this is from www2.google.com compared to the normal site.

Based on some spot checking, it looks like they've begun to put a bit less emphasis on page rank.

I hope this stays the way it is! I have a #2 ranking.

Looks like less emphasis on the domain name as a keyword also

I hope whatever they are doing doesn't de-emphasize page rank too much. I also hope it doesn't put bullshit sites with no content up top... From the look of it, my rank has slipped quite a bit. :(

No. 2 ranking :( did they bloody <i>sell</i> No.1 spot??!!

That time again.

Anyone notice anything different?

Someone told me it was, but I havent seen anything.

:smokin

I'm still top 10 under 1800 listings

Google rocks, and fuck you all.. I own YOU!

How long last the Google dance ?

And how many time the www2,... servers are updated before it appears on www. ?

I mean... can I check my rank on www2, then modify my pages, wait xx hours, and re-check my ranking etc... Until I'm happy, and finally it appears on www ? Or www2 is updated only once ?

If you understand the term "google dance" you're 95% ahead of the webmasters who post on this board.

I wouldn't look to most of the people on this board for advice.

my :2 cents:

The google dance start sometime after the 20 of each month and are on going until the final update one off the last days of the month. Everything fluctuates on the www2 and www3 server until the final update there are still 7 days left off this month so alot will be different in the final update

thanx fletch.. its early this month .. i didnt know :)

:thumbsup

:smokin

Thanks pipp !

The google dance ended on the 22nd of this month. The update reflected now on www.google.com is what you have to live with till next month.

Yes I know, period, end of subject.

I lost some important top10 movie spots last update cause of that "XxX" movie being out now. gonna check this update later...

Updating what? Seems out dated already!
