Even if Google’s intentions with this lattes update were all pure and white as snow, it’s becoming quite clear that something as gone terrible wrong. There is no way people at the Google plex are leaning back in their chairs and saying “now this turned out pretty good” ….. I think it is more like “S**T , what the hell just happened?”

It can’t be good when a site that I have has been nr one for its main key word in all search engines for 5 years, and for good reason. It is infact the only website of its kind, it’s not a money key words, it has not one competing website. Yet Google decided it should no longer show up on the first page when it is the only website made for that key word. An algo doing this can not be right, when all other search engines can easily understand that this site should be the nr one site for this search term.

To add some value to my post I have noticed something strange. It is almost has if we have got some kind of penalty that can target single keywords. Some sections of my site have ranked well for a couple of key words that basically mean the same thing. We still rank well for one of them but have went from 3 place to 150 for the rest of them. It’s almost like they manually gave us a penalty for some keywords, but forgot to do it on some of the synonyms. Not very likely that they would manually rank sites like that but it is very strange.
