Strange.
Gold star for Zikos.
Intresting some of the changes that I thought were Jagger3 related have not spread - therefore something else is happening to one of my sites on some DCs - including the original Jagger3 - but not the new Jagger3s.
Hmmmz - stress.

Dayo: Maybe you've changed the right thing. As long as it sends data, everything should be fine. But I'd keep an eye on that. Maybe something goes wrong with the handling of header requests.
Yes, it appears that J3 is not really bring stability accross the DCs.
I can see the ordering effect on J3 spreading - however, I have totally different rank on the J3 dcs.
Perhaps it will just take a while for it to fully transfer to each DCs.
I can't see how "changing to CSS" could have any effect but positive: leaner code, semantic markup (you did use block elements like headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, and forms right?), easier spidering, and so on.
Run your HTML through the W3C validator, and make sure all your titles and meta descriptions are different for each page. Check your linking with Xenu LinkSleuth. There must be some screwup somewhere. Make sure that non-www redirects (301) to www for all pages of the site, too.
I helped a site convert to CSS earlier in the year, and rankings have all improved, and visitor numbers have doubled.

...but after the past few weeks, I have learnt not to get too excited as these will probably change!
One thing I noticed: a subdomain spammer who got ditched previously is back again in these new (?) results.
I'm up, I'm down I'm the same. Doesn't matter it will all change when jagger 3.67 comes out in a few days on three datacenters.
I hope this update is fixing something, because right now the results are very close to what they were pre-jagger in my market. If at the end of all this the SERPs have barely changed... What a massive waste of time this thing has been.
That's exactly what I've found. A lot of pain and very little difference to the serps. Maybe some movement in favour of big brand names, all in all I still think that more damage has been done by our fellow webmasters, seeing if they can knock off the competition.
Cheers Colin
Or thereabout.
Did GoggleGuy stop checking them or are they too busy with Jagger3?
I have a really hardwork spammer.
Creating very fast pages and linking them hiddenly.
You must see that one.
I already have reported it.

LOL
Maybe it's just got stuck at an infinite level on 3.333.......
when you report put GG name in the notes and your nic thats what I did, and it worked
Zikos was right, its the first time I have seen J3 spread to another DC, it must be moving. Well done Zikos!
The sites Google page views dropped to almost zero, all morning.
In the last 30 minutes, the sites Google page views have equalled the average for a 24 hour period, for November.
>>What about spam reports?<<
Thanks a bunch for asking :-)
Don't wait to send Jagger-related spam feedback; I'd send that now. Using the keyword "Jagger3" at [google.com...] will get someone reading and checking it out.
Just as a guide to those of us who aren't sure, could you let us know what sort of 'spammy' things we should report to Google. I think that we may be creating a lot of work for Googlebot if we just report sites that list above us in the serps & hope that the bots find something ;-)
All the best

I guess GoogleGuy & Matt will say ALL spam. However I have the impression that GG & Matt are mostly interested at present in; hidden text, doorway pages sites/networks and SE cloaking.
