Hi Guys im fairly new here
I have been reading the forums over this last month or so in regard to the issues with some of the indexing issues at the moment.
This is a little selfish post as its about me personally but i think my issues are a little similar to some on here i have read.
Oct 1st my site took a hit, all keywords dropped, my main keywords were position 3 and 6 now sit at 23 and 34 most the others dropped from 1 and 2 to 7-8 (first page Google)even my local listing where i have no real competition dropped to position 2 from 1
Know what im uncertain about is this, i understand there are algo changes but would a site that was sitting solid page 1 Google position 3 drop to 23, could this be done by a penalty of some kind.
I initially thought it were a technical error as Google when i check my site says i have 143 pages indexed where in fact i have 3860
site:www.mysite.co.uk =143
site:www.mysite.co.uk/car =3860 (checking less pages gives more results ?)
if there is an indexing issue how long untill its put right i would have thought if the Big G made a error it would be quickly fixed.
3 weeks on i have hardly moved the site is so static,
The only thing i did prior to this was create a script that randomly generated some deals on my site, then i dropped a week or so later so i reverted my site back its original state
Thanks in advance
