>>Wow - Googlebot crawled my homepage last night :)<<

Rumor has it that Matt, who is at present at Kentucky for Thanksgiving, has phoned Google Crawle & Index Team asking to send Googlebot to visit your homepage. Just to tell you that you are not forgotten and a Thanksgiving from your side at the Pub might cure your canonicals things :-)

I've said it before and I'll say it again...

Buying links, selling links and trading links is all natural.

I naturally want to advertise my website. So I will naturally do whatever it takes to accomplish that, naturally.

As far as scraper adsense sites? Google is the biggest. So as far as I'm conserned, if google can do it, why can't everyone else? Google created this mess.

Spam? Spam is something that is forced upon you without you requesting it. If there is spam in googles results and you click on it, it becomes something you requested. Therefore it is not spam. You call it spam but it is not.

If I want to trade links with the whole world, why is that dishonest or a lie? Google based their entire page rank algo from the odds of a random surfer stumbling on your site. Right?

If a link to my site is in every directory or link page on the internet, I am sure a random surfer will find my site eventually. And what is wrong with me creating a directory listing all of the websites that link to my site?

This whole link spam thing is crazyness. Google is just going against their original PR algo in the name of "Un-natural Links"? Where is the logic in that?

Well I'm not sure what changed but since yesterday Google seems to have shoved one of my sites back up to #1 for it's main keyword.

Looking at my stats I don't think it's the same for all DC's nor do I expect it to last but it's welcome no the less :)

Tigger/Reseller - Thanks for the encouraging words - but I doubt it will fix the problem. Pessimistic mood today.

When did the site that has now returned go missing?

I see very little stability across the board, J3 DC's or otherwise. There is still a considerable amount of movement, and nothing has settled down yet. In fact, I would go as far as to say that J3 hasn't reached any plausable termination. People see it on this DC and that DC, which only tells us that is is both sporadic, and undetermined.
Until the whole of Google worldwide index settles down, the speculation will continue, and nobody but nobody can state where it's at.
On that note, I'm off on holiday for 10 days, so best wishes and good luck to everyone!

I hope you'll come back this time, Dayo.

I was convinced, the big bang would happen last night. I was sure to see my site back on #1 this morning, to see visitors rushing in.

What happened: Nothing. But I can see a bit encouraging results on post jagger 3 DCs.

Time for breakfast...

By the way, some of you may want to check out: There are lots of NEW DC's which people don't seem to be watching ;-)

When did the site that has now returned go missing?

The last major update a few months back (around the same time I implimented a 301 redirect for a new domain for the site :)). It came back in the Jagger updates (it peaked at around #6 but then fell to the bottom of the first page on SERP's). But has improved since yesterday to #1.

Checking around it does only seem to be a few select DC's and I realy don't expect it to last, but it'd be great if my site does improve a bit more in the SERP's.

Wow, something to chitchat about this morning! :)

Funny shuffling around all DC's...

Now that's really weird I see websites that stood still on 9.104 and 7.104 which I assumed being the most updated SERP and now they have disapeared totally off the top 1,000 for one or 2 of their keywords while for other KW's (related, almost the same) their SERP looks great....this time I'm about the give up...I don't get it :(
