I haven't changed anything major on the site, but today I am position 9 after being at 4 or 5 for my most important key word for over 18 months... anyone else experiencing anything similar? Charlie

Yep, some new kind of everflux shuffle is going on.

Eversux is the new nongoogle friendly description of this ridiculous daily phenomenon

Your question is true to your nick :) Just keep doing what is proven to be vital in the long run - Content and quality links. You will lose sleep often if you prove true to your nick, and Panic.

Things go up, things go down. You're still on page 1, so count your blessings. :-)

Resorting solely to adwords again is just a killer for the business... I never panic about this and count my belessings that I'm on page 1, but when your business relies so heavily on google behaving, it's a pain in the butt! Thanks for advice!

Same here beginning sept 22. Was tops in the serps for many keywords, now #9 for my main keyword and on page 2 or beyond for the other keywords. Traffic decreased by 60-75%. I am not sure what to do.

I'm definitely seeing some real movement,

Something has surely changed on sept.22nd, I saw my Google traffic dropping down by 90%. My site wasn't changed before this so i don't know what's the cause..

since then, i saw panic threads in various SE forums describing similar cases.

The best thing to do? IMHO Probably NOTHING! If you don't know the cause, how can you fix it? The only option the way i see it is to wait a few weeks and see if this is just everflux or a pending major update.

i'm sure that with or without panic, the picture will be clearer within a few weeks
