Do you guys notice Google results have changed a lot recently? Is Google updating a new algorithm or something? For a few months my keywords fell from 1st page to page 9, it came back to 1st page a few days ago and now fell to page 3. What's going on?

    A lot of things changed for me too. My first places dropped a little and some others of my sites had great improvement...

    Changes started happening in the beggining of October.

    No changes or small, from #2 to 3 and back kind-of-changes.

    Is your homepage displaying the latest blog post at the top?

          No. My pages are ranking the same if not better than they were yesterday. or the week before, or the month before, or the year before.

          If movements happen there is a correlation. Remember kids there is no such thing as a causation.

    Aside from algorithm updates that affects the SERPs try to analyze those competitor websites in which outranks your website. Otherwise your site is not performing well in the respective field.

    Well, as an option it might happen when you put a number of backlinks pointing to your website that brought traffic and higher rankings, in a period of time Google has overestimated them and considered as spam some of them. As a results, the website is losing its' positions.
