I suffered some major drops today - this seems to be happening 2 - 3 times a year.

Drop out altogether - then slow regain previous positions over 1-2 months, sometimes with slight improvement - then everything is fine for a few months then the whole process starts again...

I was wondering if it might be my web hosting - if my site was down when google crawled, they start removing it from the index - find it again and start to re-include it?

Might be time to cough up for a dedicated server

  Cool Big Drop today

Very frustrating, just when you think all is going well, Google bites again. The last serious drop was December last year. This one is not as bad, I just hop ewe can creep back up again. Maybe Google is taking a real stand on (largly) affiliate sites?

Google seems to have dropped my main site completely - traffic down to zero!

MSN and Yahoo are providing much better results

  Smile not just me then...

Interest to know which 'sector' your dropped sites are in 'morleymouse' - hopefully this update won't stick and all will be good again in the world

I looked on webmaster world and they haven't even declared an update. So it aint really is it, it's just movement. I had been working one page up from the lower leagues to 12th position and then this happens, oh well, just about to get back to page one and top ten and this happens.

Christmas, bah humbug!

Lee, im surprized that this 'movement / update' wasnt in your favour as you lost your google rankings the exact same week as i did... now mine have come back!!

Its sad that my sites full of content (which have taken months to build) do poor in google, yet my old spammy pages (which took 2 minutes to build) have re-appeared in the serps and are getting traffic again....

And there was me thinking content is supposed to be king???... never found this to be the case with google yet!

Lots of big drops for me too on some sites.

I've been thinking about retiring so this may just force the issue! Mixed feelings!
