    Well as many will notice there has been a large drop in our placement in the serps and for allinanchor.

    The ONLY 3 major changes observed were position, allinanchor, and cache date.

    Yesterday:
    Postion #94 allinanchor: #122 -3/09/2005
    [5 DCs #71, 2 DCs #72, 7 DCs #73, 2 DCs #93, 11 DCs #94, 6 DCs #95]
    Allinanchor #122 on 17 DCs, #296 on 6 DCs, #299 on 10 DCs

    Allintitle #5
    Allintext #123
    Allinurl #4
    Cache Date: Feb 7, 2005 07:05:06 GMT

    Today:
    Postion #33 allinanchor: #62
    [2 DCs #32, 29 DCs #33, 3 DCs #51, 6 DCs #52, 2 DCs #74]
    Allinanchor #61 on 2 DCs, #62 on 20 DCs, #122 on 11 DCs)


    Allintitle #5
    Allintext #120
    Allinurl #4
    Cache Date: Mar 9, 2005 03:36:48 GMT

    Note:There are STILL several Datacenters that are NOT updated to March Update.
    -------------------
    January Backlinks reported (updated and rolled back 4 times)
    66.102.7.99
    66.102.7.104
    66.102.7.105
    66.102.7.147
    216.239.53.99
    216.239.53.104
    -------------------
    February Backlinks reported (updated and rolled back 2 times)
    66.102.11.99
    66.102.11.104
    -------------------

    Again, we will have to wait and see if this Updated Cache Date has truely effected the page rank or if it is just a coincidence. We should be able to determine this over the next day or so.

    Caryl

    ps - glad I kept recording and did not give up. I would be kicking myself in the ass right now if I had :)

    Going back down. Perfucked again. Although I think this is the narrowest range of serps and allinanchor across the dcs since this ride started.

    Here is a weird one...

    Allinanchor:sleeping bags

    experiment page: 113 Links (reported by Google)

    Position #61 allinanchor: #137

    www.sleeping-bag-shop.com (another site of mine -affiliate- left for dead)
    6 links - 4 internal, 2 external

    Position# not found allinanchor: #31

    ----------------------------------

    It still seems to me that somewhere, the experiment page has been dropped from being rated. That little "other site of mine" should in no way be rated above the experiment page for allinanchor!!! (6 links is pretty darn accurate)
    ----------------------------------

    I thought the updated cache would have stabilized us some but dosen't seem to have yet. Actually, the cache date was updated AGAIN and today the cached page is dated March 10th.

    Maybe I am being too impatient... :eek:

    Actually Dave...

    On February 20, sometime between 9:AM and 11:30PM EST Google made some adjustment that brought all of the serps to being very close!

    9:AM recording:
    Position #82 allinanchor: #17 - 2/20/2005 [9 DCs #49, 3 DCs #80, 14 DC #82, 7 DCs #83] Note: Allinanchor #17 on 25 DCs, #45 on 8 DC

    11:30PM recording:
    Position #42 allinanchor: #6 - 2/20/2005 [10 DCs #40, 2 DCs #41, 15 DC #42, 6 DCs #43] Note: Allinanchor #8 on 14 DCs, #9 on 10 DC, #36 on 9 DC

    that lasted until the 5:30PM recording the following day...

    5:30PM recording:
    Position #42 allinanchor: #15 - 2/21/2005 [14 DCs #42, 2 DCs #79, 13 DC #80, 4 DCs #84] Note: Allinanchor #15 on 14 DCs, #16 on 7 DCs, #35 on 12 DC
    -----------------------------------------

    You can follow on from there on this table...

    Google Update February 2005 It will load a little slow (I've organized it by C-Block to make it more readable.)

    It was not until February 28th that allinanchor started slowly to go to hell AGAIN!

    It's an interesting scroll.

    Hey Caryl:

    After SES NYC I asked Rustybrick about contacting some of the SE reps directly with regard to a concern. He suggested that I publish the concern at Search Engine Watch Forum. He said that all the SE's review that regularly. Maybe they read here regularly also. He implied they tend to react off of that forum. Who knows?

    Maybe you ought to publish the spread sheet with results in a forum like that to give it more exposure. I have yet to find anyone else documenting the results as closely as you...and its pretty spooky that one SE would be taking a site and subjecting it to such wild and wide swings while other sites kept it in a reasonably stabile status. Its expecially wierd that the site should be subject to such craziness for 5 WEEKS

    Its totally unexplainable. Its a crazy phenomena and one that has no precedent with regard to length of time for such crazy rankings swings and such divergence among dcs on such a long term basis.

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for the info. I've since gone to that forum and attempting to read some of the threads and find that there are many who share this problem.

    That coupled with the fact that Google has supplied a specific email address to contact them regarding the "Feb Update" seems to indicate...
    1. Google has had a problem and is attempting to address it.
    or
    2. Google is sick of hearing the complaints and is attempting to have them be channeled all to one place for ease of filtering.

    It may be the latter as I have not (yet) found anyone posting anything that indicates they have received some response from Google regarding these issues.

    I am continuing to look into this.

    Thanks again,
    Caryl

    Hello All,

    I apologize for missing the last few days of updates. We had a death in our family and I have been unable to keep up with everything.

    I will be updating things again starting today.
