I could push out 4, 5 page bed and breakfast sites easily in a week.
the fact that you havent i would assume means youve decided that would be spamming.

Well, it was good whilst it lasted! Two days ago, my stats went up 7x the norm on Google traffic. Yesterday, it dropped to 3x, and today its back to where it started , before the increase.
So, I guess they've wound back somewhere. It'll be interesting to see where we go from here :-)
By the way, I'm not whining, just commenting...lol!
>>However, at this stage of Jagger update we might need to ask ourselves; how come that an update which has started for around a month ago hasn't migrated completely to other DCs?>>>
Lets take exactly the facts sent to us and stop reading the rest of the rubbish in between.
GG said, Jagger 3 is sitting at *9*. Once its is stable it will migrate across to all DC's.
Honestly there is nothing more that anyone can add to this or take away. Its now just a wait for all of us.
Perhaps we should start talking about what we see at *9* . Ill kick things off with a huge difference seen in plural and singular keywords/phrases..anyone else?

I have seen quite the contrary. Singular keywords and plural keywords are hitting on the same cylinders at the moment. 's on the end of any keyword is bring the same result sets up.
I still want to see Brett Tabke's 26 steps to Jagger3 success! :>

In fact its exactly what I'm doing. GG said that Jagger3 would be migrating to other DCs this week! which hasn't happened yet.
What you see at present at *9* isn't Jagger3 anymore. Jagger3 was supposed to deal with canonical- and supplemental issues as well, which isn't the case.
So we ended now at *9* with something strange which as we say here in Denmark; neither a bird nor a fish :-)
Reseller - GG played down that fix long before the supposed Jagger3 hit the *9*.

Why dont you crawl my homepage? you seem to be happy to crawl internal pages?
I dont know what to think anymore about the situation.
Google dont provide any feedback - either here, at MC blog, or by email.
It is just crazy.
If we are assuming that J3 at least is ordering site:domain.com searches - the sites I see with problems dont have their homepages at the top.
As far as I am concern Google does not treat my homepage as my root page.
I always assumed the problems started when G index the non-www homepage.
No and neither are we.
We can tell something is not right.
Google has not treated my homepage and other sites I have looked at homepages as the root for ages.
Not 100% sure what it is due to - eg Canonical, Supplementals, 302 hijacks etc.
I have always suspected Canonical as GG (when he was able to talk more freely) has said that confusion in this area could cause that problem.
Not sure - it is obv. hard to know for exact why sites go like this.
On a related(ish) note - did you see this round up of Matts Coffee talk:-
[seroundtable.com...]
(OK mods - this link was posted in the officail Las Vegas thread and has survived so allowed?)
Anyway - the most intresting point regarding the supplemental/301/302 etc question was that Matt said they are testing on a datacentre - hmmmz wonder if it was the [64.233.179.99...] results we saw for a little while a week or so ago.

I think it has been a problem longer - the scrapers, malicious 302 linkers etc have made it more pronounced.

A non technical friend of mine did in the past all his redirects via meta refresh, no intent of doing anything harmful, black hat etc , just that was what he knew. I think G's main hurdle will always be to seperate the truly ignorant from the malicious. :\
G's task is truly near impossible imo .. How do you seperate human intent with an algorithm? Maybe bayesian might be a partial answer, but ultimately the fairest solution should be, if you know what you do with a webserver and HTML you should be high in the ranking. Then effort and knowledge would equal success.
Akhenaton what is a WP page?
You'll find out if it comes to a SERP near you ... :D
