I just started checking my properties when I realized most of them experienced a crawl uptrend starting from 20th of Jan. No big spikes just 20% or more pages being crawled on a daily basis. Something that I am not sure how to interpret yet, as since the 20th there were ~2-3% of the pages being de-indexed, which is always sad to see.

That being said can you guys check your crawl rate and index status in the period 20-30 Jan?

Unexpected turbulence since Friday (25.2.2016).

How much change did you have noticed?

Wow - what´s up with google. Since they killed right hand ads and pushed 4 ads above organics, we see domain crowding in a new form. Means most of the brands have now two entries: Detailpage and overview page. The rest of the 9 spots are now served with very, very, very uncompelling stores. Once againg a strike to get users click on ads.
Shame on u google.

@MIW - Is that just Google.de you are seeing this?

I rarely use Google these days therefore decided to have a look, seems the same for UK/US results, the usual mediocre stuff, one has to drill down to find anything useful, but then again maybe most people are searching for mediocrity?
