There are so many ways to create deceptive content in a Flash file, that I doubt we'll see much on this front for quite a while

Great point. If Google has been working on perfecting its ability to read flash, i wonder if or when Yahoo and MS search will read flash, and would there then be a flood of new data in the search engines because all the existing flash sites would suddenly compete.
But more than likely im sure Ted is right, must be quite a feat to program something that could do that without getting sucked in by simple or sophisticated black hat tricks.

BTW Is'nt Flash really a kind of marked up Java?
Sorry back to topic...
yes, really wild ride with Google for the last week.

I have a website which ranks on 10th position for highly competetive terms in all Google Datacenters.

There are only the following datacenters where the website disappears out of 300
66.249.93.104
66.102.11.104
216.239.59.99
216.239.59.147
216.239.59.104
216.239.59.103

Can anyone help me in whats up with Google Baba :)

I've read through both of these threads and I can't help but wondering if Google is fluctuating so much for some of you why you would continue to rely on them so much?

If so many people are whitehat with unique content and still being unfairly dropped in the SERPs wouldn't it just make more sense to start traffic building campaigns through a different venue for similar results? (of course, other than free)

You mean like Adwords? Guess that is G's plan...

Well I didn't necessarily mean AdWords but good point.

As an adsense publisher myself it looks more and more as the algo ranks with in adsense sites.

I think what you're seeing is just a reflection of AdSense's market share. A high percentage of information sites, from mom-or-pop hobby sites to major newspaper sites, are running AdSense these days. It would be odd if you didn't see a lot of sites with AdSense ads ranking well in Google's SERPs.

I'm dissapointed.

27th passed by, and my sites haven't come back.

Disappeared on 27th december, cam beck on 27th January, dissappeared on 27 March.

I was hoping, this 27th will be a magic one again :)

What now?

PS. just noticed that one of my site that was on 1.st place for one keyword ranks on 6th page, but through some proxy link.
Could that be something that has some connection with serp drops?

You maybe need to check this link: [webmasterworld.com...]

Looks generally as the Germman traditional publishers have somehow found a way to get their content poor "dictionary" terms on prime spots. Then even WP is better. Full WP article vs 1 liner by a big offline company.

I noted that a new change took place yesterday. Anyone notices this?

Following my past observations...

Last week, my website disappeared in google.com but NOT in google.fr (french localized Google)

Now it is present in both search engines at a better position than before (1st)

Does any of you see the same phenomenon?

Yeah. I bounced back for about a week after being down almost all of April (adsense earnings haven't ever been this low!) and had the glimmer of hope google would quit messing around. But as of last night / this morning, traffic is at a new low. I just don't get it.
