Is Google.co.uk updating/reverting?

[HuskyPup]

I have written several times about the problem I have been having with a 10 year old UK hosted, UK company .com brochure site.

Sometime yesterday this site suddenly reappeared in the Google.co.uk SERPs and also a little in the Google.com SERPs.

I thought that my recent titlebar, keyword and description tags had done the business however checking keyword phrases some of the cached pages are two months old with most of the others one month old, in fact the newest page is the index page, 18th September.

Has anyone else who has had an inexplicable drop seen a return?

I've never known Google to truly revert their data set - even though new results can look somewhat familiar at times. Just maybe, and very rarely, revert by one day - but not by a month or two. Sometimes an algo factor might be dialed back, but the data it operates on is continually freshened.

Old cache dates do show up, but the cached page is not necessarily the version that is used to calculate rankings. The cache and the algo are two separate things, in other words.

I'd say your site has actually been reincluded. If I'm right (for your sake, I hope so) it will start to build traffic now.

Blooming heck, you're not kidding!

This evening, UK time, nearly all pages are at #1 in the G.co.uk SERPs and even quite a few of the G.com SERPs when using a proxy.

I just wonder how long this will last?
