current google results are more relevant

at least on my main keywords....

I have to be honest,
My site dropped from #1 to page 2 since the dominic "update"
but when I try to be as objective as I can than I must conclude that within the first 10 results there is only one site that should not be there. I don't think I deserve to be outside the first 10 results, if I should rank my own site I would place it somewhere within the first 5 results because the other 4 sites are just as relevant to the keyword as mine.....being very very honest... Before the Dominic "update" there were about 4 sites not very (or not at all) relevant within the first 10 results.........

If all of you here on this forum try to be as honest as you can than do you think the first 10 results for your keyword(s) are more relevant or less relevant in the google results at this very moment....may 28 2003

Less relevant.

Hi Drako,

This was THE question worth asking.

I can see more relevant SERPs for my keywords. My ranking is about the same, moved up a bit for a keyword, down a bit for another one and receive hits for keywords where I wasn't anywhere in the 100 first results, now ranking #3 with a page that hasn't really been optimized for SE, but relevant for that keyword.

A few "over-optimized" pages with hidden text -not mine- have now disappeared from the SERPs, that's really nice. :)

The interesting effect is that, for approximately the same number of visitors, they are a lot more targeted than they used to be before "dominic".

I'm really happy with this update.
