One of my sites has spent a lot of time at mid second page positions for many months, up to about 3 months ago.
Also for a while now I have been monitoring my allintitle, allinanchor, allinurl and allintext results.(I know they don't create the final position result)
My weakness had always been the allintext command. On the other Allins,i am always shown first page for my chosen search term
The allintext command, however never shows my site in the top 100 against the others "allins" always in top 10.
Then
About 3 months ago, my site started to bounce between second page and first page. 5 to 15, 15 back to 5.
I know many of you have had similar experiences.
This then occured again yesterday.
However yesterday whilst I was on the first page I did an "allin" test and for the first time I saw my site in the top ten (7) for the command allintext as well as the rest of the allins.
This morning, my site went back to postion 14. But so did the allintext command result.(back to somewhere lower than position 100)
This raises some questions for me.
Instead of thinking different data centers, different link values etc, I am now thinking google is measuring my allintext value differently, to establish different results. ( or the factors that make up the allintext result)
(The other allins just showed an improvement of one or two postitions. But the allintext had moved from not being in the top 100 to number 7 and then back again)
I can understand how different datacentres may have diferent values, or qualtities, locations etc, for external factors such as incomming links.
I cannot understand how a different data centers would have different values for onpage text. Yet the results yesterday suggests that is happening in some form
So I was looking for somefeedback on why this could be.
Or idealy someone else (who is experienceing this bouncing results) to measure these allin factors before and after to establish if there is a huge results in the allintext command.
If this is established we have a better idea of the factors that make you a jumping bean or a static bean.
Mark
Over a period of months, with many page variations and no changes in allintext position, I came to the conclusion that allintext wasn't necessarily what many people have stated it was. I now tend to believe there are external influences to allintext, not strictly onpage factors.
That would kind of indicate to me that user behavior can/will influence serps.
The last time was the day before yesterday, when i went into the first page, but only at number 9 this time.
My allintext result came from nowhere to number 13.
The keyword postion has again fallen to 15 and my allintext operator result disapeared from the top 100.
I fully believe something that makes up the allintext operator is either controlling or being controlled by this jumping effect.
The allintext operator is sometimes seen as unimportant, but i am now going to dedicate some time with experiments and review the competition (who have mainly static results)to see if there is an external changing factor within this operator.
Or if the on page text can be measured differently at different times.
I fully believe something that makes up the allintext operator is either controlling or being controlled by this jumping effect.
I think there's also a chance that there's some third factor that's changing both. I'm beginning to watch the allinanchor: results and also &filter=0 results for the regular search - to see how they shift when rankings jump around. But since I decided to try this, there has been no jumping, so I've online got baselines and nothing to report.
