It seen the front page of my site climb to no.4 under the "trusted" official site and one of the larger competitiors. Over the past 2 months ive been messing around with the whole google sitmap thing and re-doing everything at the top end of the pages, the meta tags, the page title, redoing H1 and H3 headers and basically going through what Brett said in the 26 step guide he made a long, long time ago.
So far, with this update anyway, there has been a fair climb at least back into the top 10 for a lot of the major pages for me. Not bad for a site which closed down, was written off in the google search results and has recently reopened under a new domain name in the past 3 months.
I've also noticed a lot of the old trusted sites which havent been changed in a couple of years have been dropped down to page 3, and a lot of new sites have moved up to take there place.
