[teeceo]

They were getting spidered every 2 days or so(pr5 on all). is this a influx? Also, server was down yesterday(for 2 hours) but, would that mean "all" my sites would be gone becouse of that? also, I have other site on this server and there not gone, whats up?

Welcome to Webmaster World teeceo!

Everflux could be. I say wait a few days before you panic. This seems normal, to me from what I read here.

I went through this aswell, first time I paniced, thought my competitors did something bad to me (paranoid :) ). Next time it happened I was cool with it, vanished for a couple days, came back and that was that.

I say be patient for a few days.

[teeceo]

I'm "kinda" cool becouse I seen people go through this but, I guess i'll just have too wait. One this though, what if there not back by the next update? Then what?

I wouldn't have thought your sever would be the problem, so you still have PR just lost the rankings?

[teeceo]

No, my sites are gone(no pagerank or cached or nothing) just gone. I guess its the everflux but, how long does this usally go on for? Til the next update?

teeceo.

[deanril]

go here [www-sj.google.com...] and search for your site, see what happens......

[tigger]

I know google is acting very odd, but it's pretty unusual to lose the lot, PR/rankings are these sites linked up at all, how old are they?

[teeceo]

They are new(just added this update) so maybe thats it. they were all added at the same time.

"go here [www-sj.google.com...] and search for your site, see what happens......"

Not there either, i'm just going to assume that this is part of the everflux and go to bed, its 12:30 a.m. here in san francisco.

if there new sites that could explain it

sleep well

I have a similar problem but mine appears in

[www-sj.google.com...]

What does that mean?

[Powdork]

3rdeye,
I would guess that your pages were up for the last deep crawl as the -sj index seems (to me at least) to include the index from the last crawl among other things. Theoretically, freshbot content should everflux there too while the stuff resulting from the last deep crawl should remain stable. Its difficult to tell with the lack of fresh tags.

[Oaf357]

Everflux strikes again.

I've been taking full advantage of Google weirdness lately. Should be interesting to see where the cards fall after the next update.

PS... I don't trust the results on sj just quite yet.

[mcduarte2000]

Argh... All the messages on this topic seem quite old, but now it happened to me... :(

I've just lost 50% of my traffic, and didn't do any change to deserve that. My site simply vanished in the air since last update (it's simply not indexed in Google)... Even back links disappeared (but the pages that link to it are indexed).

However, when I search for it in [www-sj.google.com,...] it appears (on first place!).

Do you have any idea of what's happening?

[takagi]

mcduarte2000, forget about www-sj.google.com. The data of that server is a mix of very recent and rather old (2 months?) pages. With old back links, old directory, etc.

Is your site very new and was it indexed in Google only recently like teeceo's? If so, then just wait for the next update (somewhere next week or so?).

[mcduarte2000]

Nope, my site is online since Nov. 2002 (and indexed in Google since that time).

The change was in 11 of April (I can see this because this was the date traffic went down).

I know that my site was down for a few hours during the March and April, because of problems with my ISP.

Could this be the problem?

If so, will my site be back on the next update?

Thanks,

Miguel

Google updated on April 11 (see Google Update History [webmasterworld.com]). For the update the data collected in March was used. If your site was down for some time in March, it could result in that kind of problem.
