We're back, and we're bigger than a bread-box! Two bread-boxes even!

The mistakes made by Fast in the last update have been corrected. Our site is back, this time in its best position ever!

Glad to hear that backus.
Enjoy it while it lasts ;)

So, they seem to have corrected some of the small glitches.
What was the problem?

For some reason they were returning results which just didn't belong... i.e. when searching for our trademarked product, there were results from schools etc which just didn't belong there.

Still not back :(. I'm getting no response from them either. Any suggestions?

FAST makes me :(

Nice over use of the smilies LOL.

If I do a site search we are in there [added]WOW. more dynamic pages than GG[/added].

We were top for the our 4 major keywords. Since their update we appear nowhere. Could we have been penalised. There have been no major site changes.

Yeah, chocolates to boiled lollies for me with this update!
:o
Dumped altogether, by the look of it. Replaced at #1 with a dead page! I've made no changes to my page. Remainder of first SERP filled with generalist and near-irrelevant pages.
This is a radical shift from previous SERP.
Watching developments with interest.

From what i remember the last alltheweb update only a couple of weeks ago was preceeded by a similar problem. It sorted out in a day or two. Im not even bothering to look for a couple of days..

Still not correct for me.

This happened about 1-2 weeks ago. It should be sorted by now.

As chiyo says; give it some time to settle.

What I'm saying is after 10 - 14 days it should have settled down.
