How long the dropout lasted? Did you changed anything?

I think it lasted about two days because I first noticed it on Tuesday I think. Since I usually check our main keywords several times a week I keep a pretty good idea of what's what.

I didn't change anything except to add a 4 word link to a coupon today, but that was right before I noticed we were back, so I seriously doubt that had anything to do with it.

It really stinks that we're so paranoid to do anything to our sites for what G might do to us, but I've got to the point that life has to go on and I can't just be afraid to touch the site fearing G, otherwise I'll not have any customers either way, from G dumping me in the serps to customers dumping me because of never adding/changing the website.

It's nice to see (today) that yahoo and msn searches are now sending roughly the combined total that G had been, so things are looking a lot brighter there at least...
