For the past year I have experienced periodically being completely dropped off Google. My site has been the FIRST of its kind and is in all the natural search results on the first spot. I'm just a small business, but since spet of 2004 I have been vanishing off of Google every 6 weeks or so--recently it has been more often and for longer periods. Does Google discriminate against Older sites? Are they doing it so that we will advertise with them? Any help, advice, comment from a desperate single mother of 4!

of course it is the right idea to vanish spam out of the serps but this filter seems to be that kind of hard that it vanishes also clean pages out of the serps....

And due to this fact this uptdate was never the right step at the right time. A great mass of real spammers still have their positions they ever had while clean pages being removed...

I believe some Google engineers are now looking for some new job after this weekend...;-)

I'm still not seeing any huge changes on www though.

Site scraping my complete site in a frame has taken my position for my most popular keyword. Also all other results are very bizarre, like site www.liveupdate.com/dl.htm which doesn't even exist! I just hope that all this update thing is just a joke.

I also vote for Katrina since she made a bigger mess ;-)

Can we really compare a serp update with a natural disaster that cost lives?

Well I prefer the name RITA, because RITA was more a money thing, Katrina not.

web_seeker: i don't think its really a comparison as much as a memorial and a metaphor, perhaps it is a bit insesative.

so Rita sounds good.

Folks

Its a cease fire now, where Google engineers are doing some "damage Assessment" before the launch of the next wave of carpet bombing. The same happened during Allegra and Bourbon.

I see you also relaxing with Rita Garbo. Or was it Rita Hayworth ;-)

Next few days you migt discover that you are dealing with nothing less than The Terminator himself.

Enjoy the cease fire ;-)

What's to enjoy? The results are still crap. ;-) I've even stopped using Google for personal searches because it's become impossible to find what I'm looking for. The good news is that if they keep screwing up this bad, we won't have to worry about ranking in Google for too much longer! They'll be going the way of AltaVista, Excite, Lycos, etc... 8-)

"Its a cease fire now, where Google engineers are doing some "damage Assessment" before the launch of the next wave of carpet bombing."

you think that the updated DCs will go back to what we saw yesterday?

edit: it doesn't appear as a rollback tho, there are more results on the updated DCs today than there was yesterday and than are on www now.

Not at all. Take a look at one of the Dcs I posted and compare its serps to the one you posted, and you shall see the difference. I´m gonna sticky you a keyphrases to save your time. You may wish to pay a special attention to first 10 results ;-)

There is no www.
There is no "google.com"
There are only datacenters.
