Only pages with PSA rank in Google

If you have adsense (for me at least)

I ran a report this morning like I alwasy do and one of my sites showed nothing. I did not rank in the top 140 pages for any terms that I had. I ran the report again a few minutes ago and everything that I ranked for before was gone. The strange thing is that I ranked for 39 different words that I never did before. I noticed a trend and checked it out. This was done with only 6 pages and the cache showed that each of those pages had PSA's on them.

There's been a recent update to the Google SERPs - so your site will have changed position along with everybody elses. Although Googlebot has the ability to follow javascript links through Adsense I doubt this'd affect anyone's pagerank. It's more likely that the pages that used to be in Google - the inward links to them have changed, disappeared or lost Pagerank and the pages you saw vanish are in Google - but they have a Pagerank of <4 so you can't see them when you search.

I think the google cache will always show PSAs.... or at least most times. I guess it would need to spider the new URL

I am very on top of things here at WW so I am pointing out something out of the ordinary. You are right about the cache thing. When I wrote this I also knew that those pages have always had PSA's on them. I should have said that. If you have a small site with adsense you tend to know exactly which pages always have PSA's. I just thought it was odd that my index page that always has good ads is gone and my bad pages that always have PSA's are now there instead. I just checked a friend’s site that ranks well and his non-psa pages still rank. Maybe it is just some fluke. Probably just a coincidence

Cached pages will sometimes show targeted - usually after someone else has viewed the cache before you happened to do that, since it will send mediabot to target that cache URL when someone views it.
