>its a shame the effort we all put in will go nowhere

Yes, it is a shame for the people who haven't achieved their goals yet, but there's always next month. That's something people get used to. And of course others have seen triumph with this update, for them it was time well spent. So the old saying is still true, that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

[EscortBiz]

again over 50 days with no update not just the 15 sites i control but so many others i work for a large design firm

[dcheney]

My site isn't even 50 days old and its in Google (granted not as much as I'd like!)

[feeder]

I've got a site two weeks old and in Google. Doing nicely :)

[EscortBiz]

new sites yes old sites that have been online for over 3 years that made changes in the past 50 days google did not update that

[dcheney]

One of my other sites has a cache date of today! (and does in fact have the current content there)

[Marcia]

It isn't full Beachboy, and I just got mail! And I do_not have you filtered out, I promise! :)

[tankman]

it looks like the update may be over.

[dcheney]

tankman,
I don't think so. www and www3 are very different on my keywords.

[Mark_A]

tankman I dont think so. I can see significant differences between www3 and www .. it may take a while to stabilise.

Came across an overly keen SEO firm recently that sent out updates to its mailing list .. look how clever we are, "top spot in google for keyword *****" but they didn'y wait for stability and when recipients looked for the site it was not there ...
I guess pride does come before a fall :-)
I think you have the position you want when you get regular referrals over a period of time.

[baldrix]

<--it looks like the update may be over.-->

What do you base this on? I still see old results at www and new ones at www2 and www3. I also see the update only on www-sj, with the other four data centers showing last months data. That wouldn't be my definition of 'over'!

[Stricko]

We've had sites updated 3 times in 6 days, last being 27th July 2002. It's almost as if they notice a change in content and come back!

Not so good for dmoz cached sites. Not updated for four weeks :(

Hi Escort Biz,

You may be confusing a couple of things. Google does update once a month, but not all sites - yours may be some.

Pages that google picks to be "freshed" do have their new content cahed for around 2 to 3 days. If the page does not change for 2 or 3 days of so it goes back to the cache at the last major crawl.

Im not sure how you can state that google has not updated for 53 days, when so many people here say their sites have. It looks to an outside observer that this is a problem limited to your sites or the SERPS that you follow.

is the dance done?

www: link: [yahoo.com...] = 628,000
www2: link: [yahoo.com...] = 628,000
www3: link: [yahoo.com...] = 628,000

[GodLikeLotus]

Not the same when I check keywords, Google still showing old results.

[EscortBiz]

[ferrari360]

[keyplyr]

I've been getting updated results consistantly all day from Southern California.

[Beach]

[Dumb_guy]

[scooch]

www is same as www2 and www3 now from here (Northeast US), been like this for a few hours now after three solid days of old data on www.

Still no PR update.

gettin' close.

[Dumb_guy]

souther california shows no change on www - www2 and www3 are WAY different still...

[x_m]

For me in Europe www=www2=www3 right now. Wondering if it stays...

[Fitch]

Please forgive me for sounding stupid, but what are you all talking about wwww2 and www3? Would you mind explaining to a somewhat newbie?
Much thanks!

[digitalghost]

If you type [www2.google.com...] you will be magically transported to the preview of the Google update. As Google dances you will notices changes on www2 and www3.

When the dance is over, the results of the datacenters are transferred to the main index: www.google.com

The Google Dance is a favorite spectator sport of SEOs and webmasters. :)
