Panda #24 and Panda #25 were in January and March respectively so in keeping with the 2 Month trend, there very well could have been one scheduled for the beginning of May.

Sorry, but a few sites moving around does not = an algo change.

Sites move around all the time. Sometimes they totally vanish. Sometimes they drop a little. Sometimes they improve. I've got pages ranking on page 1 which really shouldn't be. But they are. And I'm sure they'll drop down a little pretty soon.

It's time to retire this horse-crap about 'Panda' and 'Penguin' every time the SERPs change. Sites are always moving around due to geolocation and personalization.

I recognized one of my keywords totally fall out of serps from page1 #2 to page 5, I didn't do any blackhat stuff and other keywords on this domain are still in place. Don't know what this means...

Well, my keywords are still there where it was before, so I don't think that there is any change in algorithm... right now.

How long are you going to play a game in which the rules are always changing? The only people winning are bending the rules, trust. Which is why the algo has to change so much.... at this point white hats will continue to flounder around and throw around theory while the others continue to kill the algo and rank....


*waits for someone to respond to this post emotionally*

No any changes in the rankings of my websites.

My keywords went up today, not down.

I don't see any major difference in my competitors, so I don't see any update.

I rank for tons of different keywords on various sites. Today I actually received more clicks then ever before....BUT, the only pages that fell in SERP's lately were two pages that I had manually linked to. No other page has lost rankings that I see.

Although I did have one other page that was ranking great until the person that submitted the article to my site created some backlinks to the page (roughly 10 links). Page went from first page to page 300 or something. On top of that it had a pagerank of 3. Google must be getting really good at penalizing unnatural linking.

Few of my sites went up, so haven't seen much impact.

I don't see any fluctuations in my keywords positions. They seem to be in the same position as before.

Can we define "Bhat" and white hat so I can know who to side with?

Its nothing but Google Dance is happening need not have to worry cross the keywords on daily basis,you will find that keywords are back one day and next day you check its again gone. From past couple of months there is no update about panda or penguin.

Those of us who implement "Real Company Stuff" don't need to worry. Go look it up...

Everything is still flying high for me

This is why I got out of the Adsense game....so unpredictable.

No question an algo change beginning late on the 7th Pacific Time. I've had numerous sites suddenly explode with abnormal levels of G traffic. In my experience, though, this type of spike is temporary. If you're on the wrong side of the change and having a traffic drop, just keep an eye on your sites. I'm not getting excited about a couple days of extra traffic.

Actually my traffic went high these days from google. For a few days i'm getting almost twice more traffic from google than before.

Looks like SEO Round Table and the peeps over at Webmaster Forum are seeing lots of movement:

Good luck everyone!

I did notice one site of my clients moved a lot but seems the rest havent moved so does not seem like an Algo changed to me.

My website dropped from page 4 to page 11 for the keyword ''magic submitter review''.

Yes, I have noticed also some traffic changes to my sites too, but definitely my site lost ranking that's why I lost the traffic.
